I cannot recommend Dr. Degala highly enough. After years of recurring issues, she was the one who finally looked deeper and diagnosed my Specific Antibody Deficiency (SAD). Beyond her diagnostic skills, her communication is incredible. She has been extremely responsive through the patient portal and even personally called me to coordinate next steps when my symptoms began to involve other specialties. She truly cares about her patients and doesn't stop until there is a plan in place.
Dr Degala was very personable and nice. She listened and asked questions and explained all of her thought processes and what she thought the treatment should be. I would absolutely recommend going to see her if you were looking for an allergist.!
