                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, July 13, 2023

  Mr. PALLONE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Dr. Terry 
Shlimbaum as he retires after 40 years as a family physician, most 
recently serving as Chief Medical Officer for the Visiting Nurse 
Association of Central Jersey Community Health Center. His dedication, 
contributions, and accomplishments are truly deserving of this body's 
recognition.
  Joining the Visiting Nurse Association of Central Jersey (VNACJ) 
Community Health Center during the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Shlimbaum 
brought a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the provider at a 
critical time. His leadership and approach helped guide the YNACJ 
Community Health Center and the community through the pandemic. His 
efforts to expand COVID testing and vaccination centers, and to ensure 
efficient test results and accountability of vaccine doses were 
essential to the well-being of our communities during an uncertain 
time. In addition to his COVID-19 measures, Dr. Shlimbaum also 
continually met the growing needs of the VNACJ Community Health Center, 
expanding staffing and access to vital services.
  Dr. Shlimbaum received his Doctor of Medicine degree from New York 
Medical College and his Bachelor of Arts in Biology from Harvard 
University. Prior to joining the VNACJ Community Health Center he held 
leadership roles at ArchCare, Summit Medical Group, and Hunterdon 
Medical Center, among others. Additionally, he has served on several 
boards and organizations, including the New Jersey Medical Society, and 
has been recognized for his contributions to the public health 
community.
  Mr. Speaker, once again, please join me in congratulating Dr. Terry 
Shlimbaum on his retirement and thanking him for his years of service.
