Je viens de faire ma première visite depuis mon déménagement dans le quartier… L’accueil était très complet, le personnel très aimable et attentionné. J’ai passé des tests cutanés et respiratoires lors de la même consultation… Les instructions de suivi et le plan de traitement étaient très clairs. Je recommande vivement cette équipe attentionnée ainsi que le Dr Casey Chhut. *4660 avenue Kenmoore

Ma famille fréquente le centre DMV Allergy depuis des décennies et nous y avons toujours reçu des soins exceptionnels. Le Dr Fishman soigne mon père depuis les années 1990 et ma mère depuis le début des années 2000, et je consulte le Dr Brody depuis quelques années. Toute l'équipe est professionnelle, courtoise et respectueuse. Lors d'une récente visite pour mes injections de désensibilisation, j'ai mentionné que j'avais des difficultés respiratoires dues à une crise d'asthme. Malgré l'absence de rendez-vous, ils m'ont pris en charge immédiatement et ont procédé à un examen complet. Ils ont testé ma respiration, m'ont administré un traitement par nébuliseur et se sont assurés que mes symptômes étaient parfaitement maîtrisés avant mon départ. Le personnel d'accueil et l'équipe qui administre les injections de désensibilisation sont toujours aimables, organisés et attentifs. J'ai souffert d'une toux persistante pendant près de trois ans et j'ai consulté de nombreux médecins sans succès. Lorsque j'ai consulté le Dr Brody, il a suspecté une asthme, m'a prescrit un inhalateur, des médicaments et des injections de désensibilisation, et ma toux a complètement disparu. Si vous cherchez un allergologue fiable et digne de confiance, je vous recommande vivement DMV Allergy sur New Mexico Avenue. Ma famille leur est infiniment reconnaissante pour tous les soins qu'ils nous ont prodigués au fil des décennies !

Quelle expérience personnalisée exceptionnelle ! À l'accueil, on m'appelle par mon nom, l'infirmière qui s'occupe de mes injections connaît mes habitudes, et le Dr Fishman a pris tout le temps nécessaire pour élaborer un plan de traitement adapté à mes besoins. La médecine devrait être pratiquée ainsi pour tous ! Un immense merci du fond du cœur !

NP Casey Chhut is a highly compassionate provider who listens well and provides trauma-informed and eating-disorder-informed care. I have struggled with past providers bullying me for my weight and belittling my experience, challenges, and perspective, but not with Casey. I feel that she and her assistant did an excellent job meeting me where I am in my medical needs Only constructive feedback I would have for this practice so far is the person who did my skin prick testing was a little too heavy-handed.
