Patient Testimonial

I had a condition that after visiting many doctors, non of them could pin point what it was or how to treat it.

Thank God for Dr. Schell, after years of uncertainty I was treated and finally cured. Everything because of his dedication, compassion and professionalism. I highly recommend to visit South Florida ENT associates and Dr. Schell.

Allergy

Allergies are the immune system’s abnormal response to a foreign substance around you. These are items that don’t cause a reaction in all patients, but your immune system has found them to be harmful and reacted. Allergies can include environmental allergens such as dust and pollen, as well as food or medications.
