Patient Reviews
Feb 11, 2021
Dr Lira changed my health drastically. I was seen by the VA previously. I had CPaP & uncontrolled asthma before visiting him. He immediately found something wrong in my treatment & found I was having more allergy triggers. He made a few changes in my medicine & followed up making adjustments. Over a couple months I barely have any cpap incidents & I have been finally been breathing better & I have more energy. He doesn’t mess around in the office. He looks & gives her advice. He explains thing more if you ask for more details. The first couple visits I was skeptical because he got me in & out very quickly. He also helped get me several different masks that fit properly & didn’t bother my big nose. I do want to mention that he does have a lot of patients so keep your appointments because there can be a wait to see him. I’m glad I waited because I’m very happy with him as my doctor.
