# IS YOUR ASTHMA CONTROLLED?

**Improve Your Quality Of Life**

---

- It may be time to see a specialist if your current medications are not controlling your asthma symptoms.
- **Well-controlled asthma is defined as:**

- Symptoms experienced 2x a week or less
- Rescue inhaler used 2x a week or less
- No nighttime or early morning awakenings
- No limitations on exercise, work or school

- Allergy SA specializes in the care of pediatric and adult patients with un-controlled and severe asthma.
  
  While there is no cure for asthma, the right diagnosis and an individualized treatment plan can help you manage your condition and improve your quality of life.

## WHAT OUR PATIENTS ARE SAYING

*“We took our 10-year son to see Dr. Diaz about his allergies. […] The interactions with our son were simply perfect. All our questions were answered in such a way to leave no doubts that we were getting the best possible care and recommendation for treatment. […] If you need an allergist definitely contact Dr. Diaz. He’s the ultimate professional, displaying an extremely high level of knowledge, concern, and expertise. So happy we found him!”*

#### Megan R.

*“Dr. Karkhanis is very knowledgeable, professional, helpful and went above and beyond! She and her staff were outstanding. Dr. Karkhanis listened to my concerns, offered suggestions and a very reasonable follow up plan. The intake nurse was thorough and communicated my needs well, and the reception did well also. Thank you!!”*

#### S. Taylor

*“Ms. Loera is seriously the nicest and the staff here is excellent. They listen, interact, and really make you feel welcome. My toddler was getting antsy during his appointment and Ms. Loera asked what she could do to help which I could not be more grateful for. Every time we’ve come here, everyone has been welcoming and friendly.”*
