This resolution honors the Chattanooga Allergy Clinic (CAC) on its 50th anniversary, recognizing its significant contributions to healthcare in the Chattanooga area since its founding in 1975 by Dr. Hyman Kaplan. The resolution highlights the clinic's growth from a small five-employee practice to a comprehensive healthcare provider with over 130 employees, six double-board-certified physicians, and eleven nurse practitioners across eight locations. CAC is praised for being the first full-service allergy and immunology clinic in Chattanooga, providing essential medical services for patients with allergies, asthma, immunodeficiency, and related conditions, and helping residents who previously had to travel to Nashville or Atlanta for specialized care. The resolution emphasizes the clinic's commitment to compassionate care, its motto "Helping You Live Life to the Fullest," and its role in improving the quality of life for citizens by reducing emergency room visits and hospital admissions. Ultimately, the Tennessee House of Representatives and Senate formally recognize and express gratitude for the Chattanooga Allergy Clinic's outstanding service to the community over the past five decades.
