Surprisingly, I wasn't allergic to anything I thought I was. Even though I haven't gotten to the bottom of my symptoms yet, Dr. Luka left no stone unturned in ruling out allergic causes, and gave me confidence through thorough testing that my symptoms were due to something else.

First visit and first off, the office personal is very friendly and helpful. Office is also spacious and clean.

I look forward to getting my weekly allergy shots here :-)

Excellent consultation for my seasonal allergies. I was seen right on time. I had to bring my three kids with me, so I was pleased that the office is spacious and i had no trouble fitting my stroller in. Dr. Luka was very friendly. He spent plenty of time with me and came up with a plan to go forward, with contingencies for if the meds don't work as well as I'd like.
Verified patient
I highly recommend Dr Luka and his team! Very professional, knowledgable, and friendly environment. Dr Luka was very thorough in explaining my allergy testing results and treatment options. He listened closely to my concerns and was sure to address each of them. His staff made me feel very comfortable throughout the process. I left feeling confident with the recommended treatments and am excited to hopefully get some allergy relief as a result. (And if not, we have a follow up appointment set in a month to address any necessary tweaks) Choose this office! You won't be disappointed.
Verified patient
I had moved back into the area and was looking for someone to help me get back on track with my asthma and allergy management. He was extremely thorough, asking a lot of questions and clarifying my medical history. He devised a new treatment plan and got me set up with the medications I needed. In addition, his beside manner is excellent - he is friendly, patient, and explains everything clearly. His receptionist, though I didn't catch her name (sorry!), was great also! She was super helpful in getting me in and out efficiently :)
