TidalHealth is pleased to announce that Alexandrea Cisar, DPT, physical therapist at TidalHealth Nanticoke, is the May 2025 recipient of the Marc McDonald Award.
Cisar was recognized for her professionalism, compassion, and commitment to the healing and well-being of TidalHealth’s patients:
“Alexandrea exemplifies the spirit and dedication that the Marc McDonald Award was created to honor. As a compassionate and patient care-focused team member, she consistently goes above and beyond — not only for her patients and their families, but also for her fellow TidalHealth team members. Her unwavering commitment to excellence is evident in her contributions to the growth of the orthopedic program and her proactive efforts to ensure safe and informed discharges for every patient she treats.
Alexandrea takes the time to educate family members, empowering them with the knowledge and confidence to provide the best possible care at home. Her professionalism, empathy, and collaborative spirit reflect the same values that Marc McDonald embodied throughout his career. She is a true asset to the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation team and a shining example of the healing mission at TidalHealth.”
The Marc McDonald Award is given to TidalHealth team members in the fields of physical, occupational and speech therapy in recognition and memory of Marc McDonald, an outstanding lead physical therapist at TidalHealth Nanticoke in Seaford, Del. He passed unexpectedly in 2022, but not before leaving a legacy of exceptional patient care.
