We’re proud to announce that Electrophysiology Specialist Dr. Stan Weiner and his team at our Louis and Peaches Owen Heart Hospital are among the first in the nation to enroll patients in the new Boston Scientific OPTIMIZE trial for treatment of atrial fibrillation! This groundbreaking study uses artificial intelligence and electrographic mapping to better pinpoint affected areas beyond the pulmonary veins, resulting in superior outcomes compared with traditional anatomical ablation. Congrats to Dr. Weiner and his team for continuing to push the boundaries of innovation in cardiac care.

During Every Kid Healthy Week, we’re highlighting how school-based care keeps kids healthy and ready to learn.
When 5-year-old Malachi came to his school clinic with stomach pain, the care team quickly recognized something more serious. A test revealed critically low hemoglobin levels, and he was rushed for emergency care. Specialists later identified swallowing issues tied to his premature birth that led to severe iron deficiency.
With treatment and support from multiple specialists, Malachi is now thriving.
Stories like his show the impact of CHRISTUS-supported school-based health centers in Southwest Louisiana—providing convenient, on-campus care, early detection and a vital safety net so kids can get the care they need, when they need it most.

Across our ministries, is a time to pause, reflect and recognize the incredible gift of organ, eye and tissue donation 💚💜
Every day, we see the life-changing impact of donation, not just in numbers, but in the stories of patients given a second chance, families finding hope and legacies that live on through others.
We are proud to partner with organizations like Southwest Transplant Alliance and LOPA to honor donors, support recipients and raise awareness about the power of saying “yes” to donation.

Black women in the U.S. are three times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes, highlighting the need for education, advocacy, and compassionate care. During Black Maternal Health Week, we’re amplifying voices like Maternal-Fetal Medicine Specialist Dr. Lissa M. Melvin, who believes that providing excellent care to pregnant women must be at the forefront of our efforts to support healthy children, families, and communities. Our team is equally committed to this comprehensive approach. That’s why we help manage chronic conditions, support maternal mental health through the first year postpartum, provide social services and nutrition counseling, and maintain a highly skilled labor and delivery team. Like Dr. Melvin, we believe every mother deserves to be heard, respected, and cared for.

Being prepared matters. Being prepared for your health starts with a plan. During National Health Care Decisions Day, it's important to remember that completing advance directives to improve end-of-life conversations should be as commonplace as financial planning. Unfortunately, only a third of people have completed these legal documents. Whether it's a Medical Power of Attorney or a Directive to Physicians and Family or Surrogates, taking time to document your wishes today helps ensure your voice is heard, your values are respected, and your loved ones are supported when decisions matter most.

Born with thumb hypoplasia, in which the thumb is unusually small or underdeveloped, Alina faced unexpected challenges from her very first moments.
To improve her hand function, she underwent specialized surgery with Pediatric Hand Surgeon Dr. Dawn Rask, who transformed her index finger into a thumb. But surgery was just the beginning. Through occupational therapy, she gradually built strength, coordination and confidence, progressing from simple movements to holding toys, cups and markers on her own.
Today, Alina is thriving, proving that with expert care, early support and a fearless attitude, children can overcome challenges and build a future full of possibilities.

We were proud to welcome the Thoracic Oncology Mobile Experience (TOME) to Corpus Christi. This 18-wheel, hands-on exhibit gave our Associates, local schools and community members an inside look at the latest in early detection and minimally invasive treatments.

Featuring both the Ion robotic-assisted bronchoscopy and the da Vinci surgical system, attendees got to experience how innovation helps detect lung cancer earlier, treat it more precisely, and robotic surgery options that get patients back to living their lives faster.

This public health week, we recognize that public health is more than a system, it’s people, partnerships and purpose. This week, we honor the public health workers and community-based programs who ensure care reaches those who need it most.

Whether it’s improving access to nutritious food, supporting families during pregnancy, or promoting prevention and wellness, public health efforts help communities thrive long before crises arise.
Join us in saying thank you to our public health champions.

Antonio McArthur’s journey began when an ulcer on his left foot led to a severe infection that spread through his body, requiring multiple surgeries and eventually amputation of his left foot. As a former athlete and coach, he was devastated and found adjusting to his new life one of his biggest challenges. Everyday tasks like leading worship at his church, putting on his shoes, or fitting into certain clothes suddenly required patience and new techniques.
But with the support of our inpatient and outpatient rehab teams, he rebuilt his strength and mobility, choosing to fight forward rather than give up. Within two weeks of coming home, he was driving again after training on our vehicle transfer simulator. He also found encouragement through our amputee support group, gaining friendships and information that helped him regain both his confidence and his independence. Now walking without a walker, he reminds others during National Limb Loss and Limb Difference Month that waking up each day means God still has a purpose for them.

“I'm just appreciative," Antonio said. "God gave me a second chance at this thing. He sends people, and He plants things in people to bless you throughout whatever circumstance. Your job is to figure out what that purpose is and be a blessing to whoever you come into contact with.”
