Summary

  • Board certified in Otolaryngology.
    Fellow American Academy Otolahryngic Allergy

    After 30 years of practicing traditional allergy injection Immunotherapy, 2007 successfully transitioned patients to SLIT, sublingual immunotherapy...for both Airborne and Food sensitivity with ALLERTOL, the allergy drop solution.

    Received in 2014 patent for sublingual testing and treating chronic delayed food allergies.

    Allergy drops offer a non-lethal form of immunotherapy. "PRIMUM NON NOCERE"
    Morally and ethically, I will no longer offer the patient an allergy shot, that has the potential to cause fatal anaphylaxis, when there is a safe alternative.

    Balloon Sinuplasty, speaking of safe alternatives, is offered for chronic sinusitis patients AFTER they have had allergic cause for their sinus infections evaluated and treated.

    Very passionate hearing aid provider, as I watched my dear dad struggle with his lifelong hearing loss.

    Sir Wm Osler quoted Thomas Carlyle:
    "Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand"
