Dr. Marc Hille, a pediatric neurologist, is retiring from the J.D. McCarty Center after 25 years of working with patients through a neurology clinic at the center.
Hille helped develop the monthly clinics where he and center employees  review medication management for patients with seizure disorders or significant behavioral challenges.
Center CEO Mike Powers said Hille created an environment of care and cooperation with the clinic.
"You built our neurology clinic to make it a collaborative effort," Powers said, during a retirement ceremony for Hille.
Hille worked in the clinic with representatives from the center's psychological services, nursing, rehab and Applied Behavior Analysis therapy departments.
Hille said it was rewarding to collaborate with the center's team.
"The people that work here really do care about the kids."
Hille said he's also impressed with the programs and services offered by the center.
"I don't think there's another facility like it in the state. Period," he said. "I think this is a good example of a well-run, state-managed facility that serves a good purpose for Oklahoma."
Hille has also retired from his practice in Oklahoma after a 40-year career.
