After over 20 years trying to get rid of a cough first brought on by severe allergies to dust and dust mites (antihistamines worked for most of those years), it had become a serious problem over the last year. Most doctors treated it as though I had asthma as well as allergies, but tests recently revealed that I do not have asthma, which explains why the inhalers most often prescribed did not work. I saw Dr. Kung for the first time in December and after carefully listening to me relating how violent and uncontrollable my cough had become and how it was interfering with my sleep and my social life, she diagnosed my problem as irritable larynx syndrome (ILS) and prescribed a medication that has literally put an end to my coughing. It is life-changing for me and I am most grateful to her for her thoughtful and proper diagnosis.

Dr. Kung spent a good deal of time with me, asking all the right questions about my history with allergies and my resulting severe chronic cough. She presented me with all the possible options to treat my condition. For the first time in the past year, I feel hopeful that I'm being heard and that I might be able to live my life cough-free.

I was referred to Dr. Kung by my primary care doctor to investigate the possible causes of an allergic reaction that was somewhat of a mystery. While a direct cause was not determined, Dr. Kung did her best to find a "trigger" that could explain an event that I experienced several times. During the times that I visited Dr. Kung, she was extremely friendly and personable and always explained testing results at a level I could understand.
