For nearly nine years, our social media posts have been created by Hillary Strilko, the Rubin Institute’s multimedia marketing manager, in collaboration with Pediatric Liaison Marilyn Richardson. Today is Hillary’s last day working with us, and she wanted to express how much she has enjoyed creating the ICLL’s website and sharing the ICLL’s news with you on our social media pages. She shares, “I have found it especially rewarding to share stories about our patients. It is so inspirational to see the amazing things our patients achieve despite the challenges that many of them face!” Hillary is leaving us to work on several writing projects, and we wish her all the best.

Happy New Year from all of us at the International Center for Limb Lengthening. We wish you all the best for 2026!

At LifeBridge Health, we celebrate staff who are "caught in the act of caring!" We’d like to recognize two staff members who went above the call of duty to make it possible for Dr. Fotis Souslian from the neurology department to X-ray his patient with the ICLL’s advanced X-ray technology—the standing, high-resolution, yet low-dose radiation EOSedge X-ray machine.

It was the end of the day when Dragana Radovanovic, Senior Radiologic Technologist, heard from Dr. Souslian, and she called Tania Martinez, ICLL Orthopedic Specialist, to see if she could help make it happen. Despite the fact that Tania was already home from work, she made all of the arrangements so the patient could be X-rayed with the EOSedge that evening. We really appreciate them going the extra mile to accommodate Dr. Souslian’s patient! Thanks for caring bravely, Dragana and Tania!
