Patient Reviews
Feb 06, 2025
Dr. Traister Didn’t want to run my bee allergy tests unless i committed to 3-5 years of allergy shots. Also didn’t want to test different medicine allergy reactions I’ve had unless i had anaphylaxis reactions. He was literally goggling my reactions. Find someone else and don’t waste your time here.
