Dr. Camac Is Great!
The staff is very friendly and helpful and the check-in process is easy. I have always been seen on time or early. Once because of another appointment close by, I was an hour early for my appointment and they fit me in so I didn’t have to wait. Dr. Camac is great! He has a very gentle and calming demeanor, explains everything he is going to do, and listens to his patient. I love that he can do both chiropractic and acupuncture.

Extremely Thorough, Helpful and Honest
I found Dr. DelCampo extremely thorough, helpful and honest about the level of relief he can provide for the pain and flexibility issues I experience from several different sources. His concern made me feel hopeful and confident about future treatment.

Dr. Briggs Is A True Professional
Dr. Briggs is a true professional! Worked very hard to make sure I was comfortable with a treatment plan and did not pressure me into more visits than necessary. The practice was available to my requests and payment was very comfortable with my well being placed above revenue.

I Was Very Impressed!
This was my first experience trying a chiropractic approach for treating my long-standing back issues. I was very impressed with how the first session was handled. The rationale of what would be done was explained very clearly. Dr. Sod proceeded with the procedures slowly to be sure that I was comfortable with the various manipulations. I will definitely continue with my treatment plan.

Exceptionally Helpful!!
Brian was excellent. He helped me get up and down from the table. He set up a bolster with an additional blanket to help my back lay flat without pain. I asked him to tell me the time during the 20 minute MRI because that helps me get though the noisy procedure!! He was exceptionally helpful!!

Great Staff And Dr. Camac Was Wonderful
Great staff and Dr. Camac was wonderful. Appointments were always at scheduled time with no wait. Dr. Camac listened to my concerns and addressed them at every appointment. I would highly recommend this office and will certainly go back if I ever have an issue in the future.

A Wonderful Experience All Around
A wonderful experience all around. Not only is Dr. Camak everything you hope for in a doctor (excellent expertise and courteous bedside manner) but the office staff are extremely nice, helpful and professional, from the first phone call to each front desk encounter. Plus, after only my second acupuncture treatment, 80% of my pain had disappeared. I couldn’t be happier!

Dr. Tomko is AMAZING!
Dr. Tomko is AMAZING! This was my first visit with a chiropractor, and I was expecting to be told to come back for repeated visits to fix my shoulder/neck pain. Dr. Tomko examined me and showed me what I could do at home to help myself. He explained everything THOROUGHLY in terms that were easy to understand. He is the best health practitioner that I have ever seen in my 64 years!

Each Visit is Fantastic!
Each of my 3 visits so far have been five star. As a Registered Nurse I know excellent care and a well-run practice when I see it and this office is a prime example. Dr. Tomko is extremely knowledgeable, professional and has an excellent bedside manner that makes the patient feel both safe and will get the best possible outcome that their body and situation will allow. Mabel was the same. Upbeat, professional and made learning the exercise regime both fun and informative. all of the staff from the front door to the treatment area are pleasant and you truly feel that they enjoy working in the practice. Thank you so much for all you do.

Doctors That Listen
So far, I am very happy with my experience and as I move forward I am beginning to see progress. I feel I can trust Dr. Thomo…I am impressed with his knowledge, warm personality and patience. This is certainly not the kind of practice of years past…I appreciate all the “new toys”. My Dr. listens to me…remembers what I tell him and a good reparte. I hope to continue getting more mobility.

Staff Were Fantastic
The staff and Dr. Mahoney were fantastic. Very friendly and professional. Dr. Mahoney listened to what I said. And he explained everything so I could understand it. I felt very relaxed and confident that Dr. Mahoney will help me. I will recommend Dr. Mahoney to anyone who needs a chiropractor.

Saved My Vacation!
Saved my vacation ! I came in hardly able to walk after the long drive in and felt instant relief after the first appt with Dr. Sod. Professional, knowledgeable and prompt.
- Christine K.
Kind and Friendly Team
While on vacation in Rehoboth Beach, I had a flare-up of an existing condition. First off, I was surprised that could get an appointment that same afternoon, and a follow-up the next morning. Kenda at reception was friendly and helpful as well. With the adjustments and a list of exercises that I could do to eliminate any discomfort, Dr. Ryan Sod allowed me to enjoy the rest of my vacation. Also, thanks to Tyra for the TENS therapy.
- Guy H.
Feeling Very Hopeful
VERY friendly office staff and doctor. Very informative, listened to my problems, and explained what he was going to do to help with the pain. VERY promising.
- Laura W.
I Feel so Improved
Dr. Garcia and all the clerks at the front desk were very pleasant and helpful. Her assistants in the treatment area were very kind. I was very skeptical in the beginning as I had had no experience with chiropractic services. However Dr. Garcia with her skills, greatly improved my problem.

Three Treatments Later and I’m Better!
After just three acupuncture treatments the pain in my lower back is gone. I had been suffering for many, many months with no relief in sight. I am thoroughly pleased!
- Lynn B.
Feeling Better Already
I was able to be seen quickly when my back flared up . It had been many years since I relocated to Delaware and had the need to seek Chiropractic care. I had some concerns that a new provider would not be as caring as my former Dr. The care, service and concern for my heath that I received today was outstanding . I’m feeling better already and know I can count on 1st State Heath and Wellness to get me back to full strength soon.

- Thomas H.
Very Impressed
I was so impressed with this practice. From the moment I walked in, up and until I met Dr. Mike who was amazing explaining what he would do for me under his care. The front desk ladies were so kind and considerate. I look forward to continuing my wellness journey with First Health and encourage the same to others seeking this path of medicine.

They Treat You Like Family
Dr Garcia and the staff at First State Health & Wellness are amazing. They treat you like family starting with your first visit. I was a little apprehensive about going to a chiropractor, now I wish I would have made an appointment sooner. I feel so relaxed when I leave, I would highly recommend them.
- Janet G.
Top Notch!
I relocated to the Bethany Beach area a year and a half ago and needed to find a new chiropractor to continue to be treated for a pre-existing condition. After my first visit at First State Health & Wellness I began feeling relief from pain I had been carrying with me for the past year. From my initial phone call, I felt like a member of the family. Jamie and Mabel are very professional and very comforting. I was nervous about finding a new chiropractor, and they answered every question I had about the process of getting connected to a new doctor with grace and kindness. They were able to get me in to see Dr. Tomko in less than a week. Dr. Tomko is very kind, patient and very knowledgeable. He listens attentively and does not make me feel like he is rushing me just to get to the next patient. He honestly makes me feel like I am his only appointment of the day. It is important to him that I am pain free and continue to remain that way. He is easy to talk to. He offers suggestions on how I can continue to remain pain free with little things I can do at home to support what he does in the office. If you want an overall wellness experience, I would recommend First State Health & Wellness. They are top notch!

Haven’t Felt This Good in a Long Time
Very professional, knowledgeable and skillful. You felt relaxed, safe and heard. I have not felt this good and pain free in a long time. So very glad I made that first appointment.
- William M.
Very Impressed
I am a returning patient – have not had to visit since 2017 – am very impressed with the measures taken to keep patients safe during COVID-19, and love the updated look of the office. Of course, Dr. Mahoney is always great!
- Susan O.
Friendly, Patient, & Knowledgeable
I would recommend Dr. Tiffany Garcia and staff at First State Health & Wellness to all of my friends and family. They are very friendly, patient and knowledgeable.

Dr. Garcia is Amazing
Dr. Garcia is amazing. My daughter has been raving about her for over a year now. The day I woke up with a stiff neck she said “call Dr. Garcia, she’s the BEST.” Her staff is so friendly and helpful. They work together like a well-oiled machine. So far my experience has been outstanding and I will highly recommend Dr. Garcia
- Joanne L.
Great Improvement
I had fallen twice and have osteoarthritis, sciatica, neck and back pain. I received gentle nerve tapping from neck, shoulders, upper back, middle back, lower back and sciatica-this procedure is very gentle but very effective. Every visit I felt better and better with great improvement. The staff is efficient with giving a reminder call before your appointments. The therapist explains what she’s doing in detail and what I’m to expect in regard to my personal situation. I have improved greatly. I thank them for their service!
