'It’s always an honor to be part of such a momentous occasion in the lives of our patients.'
Woodlawn Health announces that Jasante Maximus Anderson was born to Marcella and Johnny’s family on New Year’s Day. Jasante came into the new year at approximately 10:58 a.m., weighing 8 pounds and 11 ounces.
Woodlawn’s Maternity Oasis is one of the few birthing units in the area, offering exceptional care and a supportive environment for new families. The hospital reports it is honored to have a New Year's baby in Fulton County – just one of the many ways it is earning the right to care for the community.
“We are so excited to welcome Jasante into the new year," Woodlawn Health CEO Alan Fisher said. "Thank you to Marcella and Johnny for choosing and trusting Woodlawn to take care of your family. It’s always an honor to be part of such a momentous occasion in the lives of our patients. A big thank you to our sponsors for providing the gifts given to the baby and his family. We are extremely grateful for their contributions and support."
