What People Say About Us!
"I have severe allergies that are not explained by the many test I've taken. Most doctors have given up on me. Not Dr. Lewis. She is determined to figure my all allergies out. She is very compassionate and understanding. The nurses are awesome too. My insurance did not want to cover my prescription, the nurses did not give up and now I have my medication. I am truly thankful for Asthma Allergy Center!"
