ACLU-NJ defends Bellmawr protesters | Inquirer South Jersey. And a Czech treat destination is expanding. by Julie Zeglen Published Aug. 27, 2026, 6:30 a.m. ET The American Civil Liberties Union of New Jersey has urged Bellmawr police to investigate its officers after they allegedly targeted protesters engaging in "free-speech activities." Plus, the state will get more than $500 million from a Meta settlement over child protections, and more news of the day. ACLU-NJ is defending protesters who received traffic and criminal citations from the Bellmawr Police Department during summertime protests against President Donald Trump and his administration. The infractions include honking and jaywalking, according to the roadside rallies' organizing group, Cooper River Indivisible. ACLU-NJ sent a letter to the Camden County borough's police department asking it to investigate officers' conduct regarding the protesters' "free-speech activities." "No one's freedom of speech should be chilled because they're afraid of getting a citation," ACLU-NJ's criminal law reform advocacy director told The Inquirer. Bohemian doughnuts, traditional kolaches, apple strudel, babka - Four Green Cats Cafe is known for these Czech treats and more, with customers traveling from both nearby in South Jersey and across the country to sample its authentic European flavors. The Mount Laurel café will soon be taking over a larger space in Haddonfield to meet demand. The new location will allow Four Green Cats to offer more menu items and host more live events for those of the Czech diaspora and beyond, owners Mila and Nadia Vasa say.

Virtua Health earns accreditation for full range of Obesity Medicine services. Published August 21 A prestigious national organization has accredited Virtua Health's Complete Weight Management Program as a Comprehensive Center with Obesity Medicine Qualifications. The designation by the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP), recognizes the program's comprehensive approach to weight management. Virtua's Complete Weight Management Program is the first in the Philadelphia region to receive this recognition. While the program had previously been accredited for its surgical treatments, the new accreditation endorses Virtua's entire weight management program. The accreditation recognizes the program's ability to seamlessly incorporate weight-loss medications, surgical and non-surgical procedures, and comprehensive support services to provide outstanding care. "Earning accreditation for our entire program is an important milestone," said Gaurav Sharma, MD, director of obesity medicine for Virtua's Complete Weight Management Program. "It recognizes the collaborative work of our team and our commitment to delivering nationally recognized care that helps patients achieve long-lasting weight loss success." The MBSAQIP's accreditation process consists of a comprehensive evaluation to ensure high levels of care. To earn accreditation, programs must document patient care outcomes, complete online training modules, and participate in routine MBSAQIP quality assessments. The MBSAQIP seeks to standardize benchmarks and improve quality among programs. "We offer our patients a range of choices so they can receive the treatment that's right for them," said Samuel Wasser, MD, director of bariatric surgery with the Complete Weight Management Program at Virtua Health. The program provides a wide range of resources and services to ensure patients are well-supported throughout their weight-management journey. It offers: * Medical weight-loss options, featuring multiple FDA-approved medications * Bariatric weight-loss surgery, including minimally invasive, robotic-assisted technology whenever possible * Non-surgical, endoscopic weight-loss procedures * Comprehensive support services, such as nutrition counseling, behavior counseling, fitness counseling, monthly support groups, and access to a personal weight-management navigation team, ensuring patients have the highest degree of support to maintain their weight loss "It's the full spectrum, which is what anyone needs to lose weight successfully," explained Wasser. Additionally, this accreditation recognizes the Complete Weight Management Program's dedication to progressing alongside developing technologies. This commitment to innovation was on display last November when Virtua Health became the first in the region to offer a minimally invasive weight-loss procedure utilizing magnet technology. As only the 16th health system in the country to offer this procedure at the time, the program demonstrated its commitment to expanding access to minimally invasive treatments in addition to advancing innovations that enhance patient outcomes. With locations in Haddon Heights, Marlton, Moorestown, and Sewell, the Complete Weight Management Program is committed to providing high-quality, leading, accessible care to the South Jersey community.

Virtua Health introduces robotic Whipple surgery for pancreatic cancer in regional first. Virtua Health became the first organization in New Jersey and the Greater Philadelphia region to offer a robotic-assisted version of the Whipple procedure, a complex surgery used to treat cancers of the pancreas and nearby structures, according to an Aug. 20 announcement. The minimally invasive robotic Whipple procedure allows for smaller incisions, faster recovery, and enhanced precision compared to traditional surgery. Ely Sebastian, MD, Virtua pancreatic and hepatobiliary surgeon and the first in the region to provide this procedure, said, "Robotic Whipple is a very important advancement for people who need this complicated surgery." Sebastian added that robotics bring greater precision which can result in better outcomes and fewer complications. The first patient to undergo this operation at Virtua was Dawn, a 65-year-old Medford resident diagnosed with a walnut-size pancreatic tumor during an emergency-room visit. After additional tests at Virtua Its Lady of Lourdes Hospital in Camden cleared her for surgery, Dr. Sebastian recommended the robotic-assisted approach due to its potential for faster healing and fewer complications than traditional open procedures. Dawn was released six days after her operation and reported no pain or need for medication once home. She will continue chemotherapy until December before undergoing breast-cancer surgery at Virtua. The Whipple procedure - also known as pancreaticoduodenectomy - involves removal and reconstruction of parts of several organs including the pancreas, small intestine, gallbladder, bile duct, and sometimes part of the stomach. Not all patients are candidates; it is mainly used for tumors located in specific areas such as the head of the pancreas or bile duct cancers. In its robotic form using several small incisions rather than one large opening, recovery times are typically shorter with reduced blood loss and scarring. Dr. Sebastian uses the da Vinci 5 platform across Virtua Health's network facilities for these operations. He said, "At Virtua, we're providing more specialized surgeries than most other area health systems in our region," adding that offering world-class care close to home remains a top priority. Virtua Health operates five hospitals along with over 400 locations across South Jersey and beyond through various health programs aimed at delivering comprehensive services supporting wellness according to its official website. The organization maintains academic ties with Rowan University as well as partnerships with Penn Medicine for cancer care and neuroscience programs. Its network includes more than 3,000 affiliated doctors.
How Virtua Health generated $27 million in campaign revenue with a smarter CRM strategy. August 20, 2026 Customer relationship management (CRM) has become one of the most important technologies in health care marketing, but technology alone does not create meaningful patient engagement. The organizations seeing the greatest success use CRM to connect data, digital engagement, clinical priorities, and consumer insights into a coordinated strategy that delivers more relevant experiences throughout the patient journey. Virtua Health is one of those organizations. Over the past several years, the southern New Jersey health system has transformed CRM from a campaign management tool into an award-winning, enterprise-wide engagement ecosystem that supports service line growth, patient retention, physician outreach, and personalized communications. Rather than relying on broad demographic marketing, Virtua identifies consumers most likely to benefit from specific services and delivers tailored messaging based on clinical data, predictive analytics, digital behavior, and individual interests. The result is a marketing strategy that improves patient engagement and demonstrates measurable contributions to appointments, revenue, and organizational growth. Virtua Health's approach illustrates how CRM supports enterprise-wide growth rather than functioning as a standalone marketing tool. "Instead of asking whether an email campaign generated clicks or opens," says Chrisie Scott, senior vice president and chief marketing officer at Virtua Health, "we measure whether marketing successfully connected patients with needed care and strengthened long-term loyalty to the organization."
