Dr. Christopher Richard Collaco, MD

Amazing experience with Dr. Collaco. He was so well-informed. I’ve been in Houston for about 2 years dealing with all different sorts of doctors trying to find someone to help me manage my health. I kept running into doctors and practices that were only interested in pushing surgeries or medications and doctors who were not knowledgeable about my issues. Dr. Collaco not only took the time to explain and educate me on the details of my healthcare plane but he also made specific recommendations that were new to me even though I’ve been receiving treatment for almost 7 years. I loved my entire appointment and am excited to see how my health turns around under Dr. Collaco’s treatment. I will be recommending him to a few friends who are looking for allergists and look forward to seeing him again.

Dr. Collaco is the best in his field, not only is he very knowledgeable and caring but treats you as an individual and works with you to find a solution to your specific problem. I had been written off as a lost cause by other specialist who were unable to offer me advice or any hope of an alternative to my allergy to thyroid medication. After a few minutes talking to Dr. Collaco I knew I was in the right place and he would help me find a way to tolerate my medication no matter how long it took. In fact it only took two or three visits and I have been able to take my medication for a week now without any sign of an allergic reaction. There are no words to express my thanks to Dr. Collaco and his team, they are simply amazing and I would not hesitate in recommending them.

I am very pleased with my experience at the Advanced Allergy and Asthma Center, especially with Dr. Christopher Collaco. I never had issues with allergies until this year. It took me a while and lot of research until I found Dr. Collaco. It is good to be treated with professional and care. He and his employees made me feel that I am in good and safe hands. I have always been able to talk with him and get my problems resolved. My allergies were so bad that I couldn't get any sleep. Following his advises, treatment and continue communication with him and his staff helped and today I can say I feel much better. His help did not stop after the visit hours. A few weeks ago when I went to get my allergy shots I asked him to provide me with a list of product I can use. Smiling I said "this is my homework for you, doctor ". He took my request very seriously. He spend his own time researching and looking for products I can use from now ahead. Thank you doctor. Thank you so much for… providing such wonderful service. Everyone there at the Center is so friendly and I am very thanksful you are in this area, close with my job.

I had a very unusual condition that was incorrectly diagnosed by several dermatologists. Dr. Collaco spent an extensive amount of time with me and was able to determine that I had an immune disorder. I was able to get on an effective treatment plan. I appreciate all of the time and effort (including follow-up calls) that Dr. Collaco spent with me and highly recommend him to others!

Recommended to us by an RN who specializes in respiratory disease, Dr. Collaco has been an answer to our prayers. He has treated my husband for several years now and usually invites me in for the consultation, with good cause - my husband is as stubborn as an ox! We always leave knowing exactly where he stands with respect to the readings and diagnosis. No sugar-coating. Never rushed and as personable as they come.

Dr. Collaco is a wonderful doctor who treats both my daughter and husband for their allergies. He takes his time and is very thorough and thoughtful in providing a diagnosis during each visit. He has a nice manner and sense of humor and it is a pleasure to see him when we have appointments with him. His staff, particularly his front desk assistant Fatima are kind, patient and welcoming, as well as professional.

Dr. Collaco is extremely knowledgeable, approachable, and friendly and treats each case on an individual basis. He takes the time to explain why and how things are happening and the purpose of his treatment. The staff is very friendly and makes you feel right at home, even though you are at a doctor's office. I have been seeing Dr. Collaco for 3 years and I have experienced a drastic difference in my allergies. I used to take allergy medication everyday, carry a box of Kleenex with me, and suffer chronic sinus infections. After 3 years of treatment and allergy shots, I rarely take allergy medication, I no longer have a constant case of the sniffles, and haven't had a sinus infections in 2 years. I highly recommend Dr. Collaco to anyone who has issues with allergies.

After losing my voice about 10 times in a 5-6 month period, my ENT said I needed to be tested for allergies. I came to Dr. Collaco after visiting him twice before. He was great! He made sure I was aware of all that was going on at all times. I was tested put on allergy shots and have never felt better! I once had to call after hours for help and he took my call right away. His staff is professional, courteous. and friendly. I would recommend him to everyone!

While that's a seemingly overstatement, my experience with Dr. Collaco was that good. He spent lots of time with me, offering information on his own and answering my questions. Very accessible and made me feel comfortable right away. Good sense of humor and being "real". I would highly recommend him for any one with allergy issues. While my treatment only started this week, I am very comfortable that I will receive the desired results from Dr. Collaco's care.

Was referred to Dr.Collaco by my dermatologist for problem with hives. He really took his time in trying to figure out why I was breaking out. He was never in a hurry and was very caring. His staff is friendly and professional. Will most definitely refer anyone to him. Wish more doctors were like him.
