Robert F. Onder, MD

“My brother had severe asthma as a child and young adult, and that inspired me to choose medicine because it was a field in which I could apply my interest in science in a way that could directly help people. I always enjoy caring for asthma and allergy patients because we make people feel better and improve their quality of life. I believe it is important to get to the root of the patient’s problem and to not only treat symptoms. To deliver quality, personalized healthcare, I’ve become a better, more careful listener. In training, there is a precise ‘right way’ to approach every patient. In my practice, I’ve embraced the philosophy that care must be individualized.”
