	HI All--Anyone have any suggestions what would be a good way to search for a new Allergy/Asthma Specialist? I want to get a good doctor to help me with my asthma. I have tried searching on the internet a little bit and looking in the phone book. I know word of mouth is always a good resource so you know you will get proper care. Let me know....Thanks Back to Top

	Sorry you named most of the ways I search. However, I also call into the office first to see if the receptionist seems or sounds nice. I wish you good luck in your quest . If your in ClearLake,TX Dr. Alps is very good Back to Top

	I'm from Michigan so I can't help you, but here in Michigan, some hospitals have a 1-800 number you can call for specialist referrals. They tell you the specialist credentials and how long they have been in operation. Worth a shot? ^{@--->--Sherry--<---@} ^{Uc(Left-sided) since 1992 - Colazal, 6MP, Hydrocortisone enemas, Biotin, Forvia} ^{Secondary Raynauds Syndrome since 2004 -Meds - Norvasc...}^{Fibromyalgia since 2006} ^{Co-mod for Ulcerative Colitis.....}^{Moderator for Allergies/Asthma} ^{Help others such as yourself by donating to Healingwell, every penny counts!} http://www.healingwell.com/donate Back to Top

	Call the 1-800# or go online for the American Lung Association -- they will give you a list of MDs in your area that specialize in Asthma and this way you can narrow your search. Back to Top

	If you trust your regular doctor you can ask him/her who they would suggest. Back to Top
