I started immunotherapy for indoor and outdoor allergies at Dr. Bassett’s Park Avenue office back in April 2008. At that point, I was constantly congested, had acid indigestion every day, severe headaches, unsightly rashes and hives and I had 6 sinus infections over a period of 16 months… I basically couldn’t live my life: couldn’t fly, could hardly tolerate alcohol, etc…

After starting the therapy, I began noticing my allergies weren’t as severe after 3-4 months and today (about 8 months later) I feel nearly allergy free. No congestion, headaches, stomach problems… and I think most impressive, not one sinus infection!

Before being referred to Dr. Bassett, I had been to many specialists over a period of several years, including 3 ENT’s, 1 allergist who told me I had no allergies!?!?!?, etc. I never thought I would feel so good again… in fact, I forgot how it felt to just feel normal!  Thank you, Dr. Bassett! ~ YELP
