Our Approach

The Huntington Asthma & Allergy Center was established in 1989 to provide a "center of excellence" for Huntington Memorial Hospital. The Huntington Asthma & Allergy Center has gone through several changes over the years and we feel we continue to achieve the original goal with a highly trained and professional staff.

Our goal is to provide excellent and comprehensive treatment of allergic and immunologic conditions in a caring and compassionate manner.  Dr. Reyneiro Castro and Dr. Sonal Patel look forward to serving you.
