Desert Center For Allergy and Chest Diseases Group

I have been going to Desert Center for almost 2 years now!
I see Dr. Hrabak, and he is an extraordinary doctor! He has the best bedside manner I have ever seen in a doctor.
I was very upfront that I wanted to do the shots, because I was horrible about taking medication. I was waiting for a lecture, but it never came. He was very understandable about my busy life style and said the shots would be a great option.
He also did a great job on explaining how allergy shots work and what to expect. Also his medical assistant is great!
I will warn you however the office staff can be very rough around the edges. Not always the friendliest people. But it is well worth it to go see Dr. Hrabak!

Thank God! I’m so so happy to finally give a doctor 5 stars. I was referred by my family doc for allergy testing. There was some confusion in making my appointment, but otherwise it was a totally smooth experience.
I got an appointment within 2 weeks which is unheard of with a specialist. The office feels high end, warm, tastefully decorated, very clean and lots of modern technology (these things are important to me! lol).
The staff was friendly and I was seen within minutes of getting there. That’s not being taken back and bounced into a room within minutes of arriving, only to rot for another 45 minutes bored out of mind and screwing up the rest of my day– I was actually SEEN by a nurse within minutes of arriving and Dr Hrabak came in immediately after.
From signing in to seeing the nurse (vitals), Dr Hrabak (exam), the nurse again (breathing test), Dr (conclusions), the nurse (instruction on how to use new meds), and making my follow up appointment, I was in my car and driving away in under an hour. The nurse was super nice, too. By the way, unlike that other ass I recently reviewed, Dr Hrabak was very, very friendly to my baby– BIG POINTS.
How can I say this nicely? The vast majority of doctors I’ve had to deal with are crusty old men who give no indication of personality, won’t smile, act friendly, or like they are a normal person. He is the total opposite– the guy knows his shit, is bright and friendly, and remains professional but without the crusty «I’m the doctor and you’re the moron that needs me» attitude.
If you have allergies this is the place to go in the valley– wherever you are its worth the drive. I’m a fan.
