Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I was very pleased with the highly professional and through treatment I received while going through the allergy testing process. The Doctor and staff were all extremely courteous and took the time to explain the process and answer my questions about the results.

This is a horrible company. We took our 2 year old there because back in NOLA he had blood tested positive for 8 different foods right before posing here and we got a referral once getting here to this location and in oct 2018 we saw them and they wanted to do their own tests like no big deal they do the food set and the only thing came up positive was cashews and the lady are my husband took our oldest to the car for acting up was nasty to me when I was asking questions which any good parent do

I've been a patient of Dr. Zechman's for more than 5 years. I had no idea what to expect from allergy testing and allergy injections. Dr. Zechman and his nurses take a lot of time to explain tests, answer questions and make sure you're comfortable with your plan. The nurses are incredibly kind and have gone above and beyond in my treatments for bronchitis and sinus issues. My 12-year-old daughter has been a patient there as well, for 3 years. They are fantastic with kids!

Terrible and unprofessional dr. had to do blood work for our daughter to confirm her allergies and when the results came in they still could not confirm what she was allergic to. Very frustrating for a parent, staff is very u professional and Dr. Zechman was not very knowledgeable. Will never go there again.

Terrible. If I could leave negative stars I would. Our six year old daughter has allergies to a lot of food and environmental allergies. The nurses and Dr couldn't answer basic questions and had terrible bed side manner. After two separate back tests the Dr recommended a blood test because several of the results were "inconclusive." We had the blood test completed and still the Dr couldn't tell us what my daughter was allergic to!! We got another referral to a Dr in a nearby city.

Awful. Had 1st appointment in satellite office for allergy tests and retest of a previous positive result. Retest did not show a positive reactive to substance in question. "Dr." Zechman said we should schedule a challenge test in the main office for the next week to slowly give substance to child to confirm no allergy under controlled conditions. Went following week for test and were told it couldn't be done. Worst "Dr" ever. Drive elsewhere. "Dr" couldn't explain why test could't be done.

He only did the minimum required of him. Just like so many other doctors, he treats the condition and has no regards for the patient.

Told me to google my questions so he wouldn't have to answer them. He wasn't helpful or friendly or knowledgable of new practices.
