This article, the sixth installment in a series, honors Dr. Claire Welsh, DC, FICA, recognizing her as a Hall of Honor Charter Inductee for her extraordinary fervor and dedication to the chiropractic profession. Dr. Welsh earned her Doctor of Chiropractic degree magna cum laude in 1988 from Life Chiropractic College, following an academically distinguished career that included work as a bacteriologist and a high school special education teacher. Her professional life is marked by significant leadership and advocacy. She served in key roles within the Georgia Council of Chiropractic (GCC), including President in 2009, and was a longtime Georgia representative in the International Chiropractors Association (ICA) Representative Assembly. Dr. Welsh received the ICA “Unstoppable Award” in 2022, primarily for her unrelenting commitment to ICA membership recruitment. The author, Dr. James D. Edwards, worked alongside Dr. Welsh and attested that he never met a DC with more fervor and commitment, noting her remarkable ability to hold ICA assemblymen accountable for their recruitment duties. The article concludes by announcing the existence of the Hall of Honor website (www.WomenChiropracticDoctors.com) and soliciting nominations for future heroines to ensure the continuity of this important work.
