Dr. Sharkey is the best Allergy specialist I have ever been seen by! He is so kind and attentive. He takes his time with all patients and makes sure to cover all the basis with you regarding your care. He is the first doctor to diagnose me with asthma and after starting treatment I have definitely felt a difference in my breathing. I have a much better quality of life thanks to him. He is definitely worth the wait to see!

Dr. Sharkey is remarkable. He has compassion, kindness, and excellent medical prowess. He is hard to get in to and there is a wait so bring a book, but that is because he gives patients the time they need and answers every question thoroughly. He is a doctor from times gone by.
