Cincinnati Allergy & Asthma Center Inc.

Cincinnati Allergy and Asthma Center has been servicing families in the Tri-state since 1960. CAAC was founded by Joseph E Ghory, M.D., and has been continued by his daughters, Ann C. Ghory, M.D. and Patricia K. Ghory, M.D. We anticipate the arrival of the third generation, our sons, Gordon E. Myers M.D., and David E. Tapke, M.D. in the summer of 2019.

Our father was the first board certified Pediatric Allergist in the Tri-state in 1960. He established the Allergy Fellowship program and Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center.

The practice has grown from one office in East Walnut Hills to now four convenient offices in Hyde Park, Anderson, Mason, and Western Hills.
