A big thank you goes out to the AFC Cheerleading Squad, who helped collect over 500 pairs of socks to donate to the KSB Foot & Ankle Center's sock drive for the Dixon PADS shelter. We can't say how grateful we are for your thoughtfulness and hard work!

Congratulations to Stephanie Berlin, our November GEM Award winner! Stephanie was nominated for the kindheartedness she had shown during a difficult situation. Her nominator wrote, "Thanks to Stephanie for her compassion in caring for an ICU patient who was having a very difficult time with the grieving process. This was a very challenging case, and by going the extra mile to develop a rapport with the patient and his family, Stephanie helped this patient come to accept the care plan that was most appropriate. We are very grateful for her efforts!"
