Dr Oswaldo "Oz" A. Henriquez AND all of the staff associated with him have been beyond exemplary!! They have gone above what would be expected to make me feel comfortable. They have provided very specific guidance when requested and kept me informed about every step of my journey from entry, pre-surgery, and, post-surgery. I could not have expected more or be happier with a team of professionals. I literally felt like I was being cared for by family members.

Well Starts with Allergy Care
It’s that time of year again—flowers blooming, temperatures rising and people gearing up for outside activities in the warmer months.
Instead of suffering with frustrating allergy symptoms for another season, take back control of your health with help from Wellstar.
Let's clear the air
If seasonal allergy symptoms—such as congestion, runny nose or itchy eyes—bring you down, don’t put off getting the proper care.
“Allergies tend to flare up in the spring and summer time,” said Dr. Oswaldo Henriquez, Wellstar ear, nose and throat (ENT) physician. “Allergies are a patient’s response to an environmental allergen or can even be present in the home, such as dust and pet dander.”
Other common causes can include seasonal changes or allergens like perfume and smoke inhalation.
Whether you suffer from seasonal allergies or a chronic condition like asthma, specialty care can help you stay on track.
