TOVA Sickle Cell Specialty Center will be relocating in June to Family
Medicine at Greenhill in Wilmington Delaware. Due to failed negotiations
since moving in at the Henrietta Johnson Medical Center c/o Southbridge Medical Advisory Council, a Federally
Qualified Health Center, TOVA was unable to fully integrate services.

We
sincerely are saddened that this partnership was unable to work for many
reasons. I still believe that comprehensive care services should encompass a
team of healthcare providers who are willing to serve the sickle cell
community. I want to thank my team for hanging in there despite not having
adequate infrastructure to operate at full capacity.
One-Stop-Shop access to high quality care requires a team of
healthcare providers which include physicians, nurses, social workers, and
community health educators all working together to improve patient health
outcomes.
TOVA’s mission is to provide Comprehensive Compassionate
High Quality Care to persons with Complex Chronic Conditions like Sickle
Cell Disease, which is historically underfunded.
We encourage you all to contact your legislatures which includes: city
council, county council, state legislature (state representative/senator),
lieutenant governor, and governor to voice your concerns about the
importance of equitable treatment and resources for sickle cell across the
entire life span. If you have any further questions, please feel free to call.
TOVA plans to expand their current programs and services with sustainable
resources for the entire sickle cell community state-wide. TOVA’s aim is to
help people “
live well with sickle cell.”
