Dr. Reister took the time to thoroughly assess my allergies and developed an effective treatment. The immunotherapy shots have given me great relief from severe year-round symptoms. My symptoms flare when I visit family in San Francisco, but I can now visit in comfort thanks to the eye drops and nasal spray that Dr. Reister prescribed. The nursing and office staffs are professional, friendly and efficient.

I went to several specialists including doctors in a medical center in Boston.who could not treat my hives. In one visit, Dr Riester treated my hives and they have not come back, I feel much better and will only see him for hives. He also returns phone calls.
