Dr. Economides is a superb physician and allergist. She is terrifically smart and also caring--a powerful combination. She is curious and works hard to figure out best treatments for tricky cases. She takes real joy in being a physician and helping patients. Worth any wait (and my waits have never been long).

Dr. Economides was very good and helpful but the wait was 1 hour 15 minutes and office was run very inefficiently.
