Patient Reviews
Apr 03, 2021
I've had chronic sinus infections for 40+ years but it had been a while since one had gotten this bad. I had congestion, difficulty breathing, nasal blockage, greenish discharge and in light of Covid-19, I didn't want to take any chances. So I went to Dr. Chandra for treatment and found him to be very professional, caring, gentle and I liked that he listened to me. He talked to me about my options for treatment when 2 rounds of antibiotics didn't work. He suggested Balloon Sinuplasty when I told him I didn't want surgery right now. I had the procedure, it was a success and I am currently using an antibiotic sinus rinse for the next 3 months, hoping for good results. I have been very pleased with his staff and with Dr. Chandra's care.
