Before 2024 comes to an end, we want to take a moment to acknowledge the people who made all of this possible. 25 years ago, 9 physicians came together to create an organization that would one day serve the entire East TN region. It is with their continued involvement and leadership that StatCare is what it is today.

Thank you to our patients for the continued trust you put in us with your care, and we can’t wait to see what 2025 will bring.

Happy New Year!!

We are excited to announce that we have hit a milestone of 25 cases in our BLVR program!

Bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR) is a nonsurgical procedure to treat advanced emphysema by placing tiny valves in the airways. The procedure takes about an hour and requires no cutting or incisions.

We are thrilled to be able to offer this to our community and continue to improve outcomes while minimizing invasive procedures.
