He is the best asthma and allergy doctor ever. He is sweet as can be, and he really, truly cares. I would never go anywhere else.

I am 22 years old I have been seeing Dr. LaRussa for my asthma and allergies since I was 5 years old. He is amazing and I don't want to see anyone else!

Dr. Larussa was very understanding and he listened to ALL of my many concerns. I only waited about 10 minutes before being called to the back and he entered the room about 5 minutes after that. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is experiencing allergy related issues, as myself.

I feel Dr. LaRussa is an outstanding doctor and that he literally saved my life 3 years ago while I was hospitalized. He is the most caring, compassionate doctor I have ever had; hands down. I would highly recommend him to anyone. And he really listens to his patients with earnestness.

My son practically grew up under Dr. Larussa's care. We recommend him often to friends and loved ones. His office is family friendly and children are very comfortable there.

Dr. Larussa is a vry caring and compassionate doctor with a great personality for children. My 4yr. old twins are seeing him and he is very thorough and easy to understand and talk to. We are very blessed to be able to see him and he is the 1st Dr. after 3 months of illnesses to be getting to the root of the problem.

I thought Dr. Larussa was very nice. He is a breath of fresh air compared to a lot of other doctors we have seen over the past few years. Dr. Larussa seems to be very caring about his patients and I appreciate that.
