Dr. Anwar is skilled and dedicated at his trade. He is thorough and compassionate and I felt so comfortable having him look at my sinus issues. He's a great listener and takes the time to explain everything in terms I understand. Most of all I appreciate that he did not push procedures or medications on me! I feel like he genuinely cared about my well being and I trust his opinion as he's extremely knowledgeable.

Do you experience ear pain during a flight?
Many people experience ear pain during a flight. It is often not due to an underlying medical condition; instead, it may be due to take off and landing, and altitude and pressure changes.

A tonsillectomy is a very common and routine procedure to remove the tonsils at the back of the throat. This procedure may be necessary if the patient suffers from breathing problems or chronic tonsillitis. Luckily, a tonsillectomy only takes a few minutes to perform and most patients can return home the same day.

Dr. Mehdizadeh was recently featured on HuffPost,
"Beware: There's Such A Thing As Using Too Much Nasal Spray"
The article reads, "There’s been a long-standing claim when it comes to nasal sprays: Use them for too long and you can actually become addicted, resulting in getting stuffed up more frequently because your nose is waiting for its next sniff of medicine.
It’s a common belief, Mehdizadeh said, and one that’s not totally unfounded. 'Many people are unaware of which nasal sprays increase the risk of rebounding and the ones [that] are safe to use for longer. Decongestant nasal sprays specifically increase a rebounding risk because they constrict blood vessels and tissues that cause swelling so rapidly,' he explained. 'If you use a medication like this chronically, as soon as you remove it, the tissue is now dependent on the chemical. That’s what creates rebound congestion that could be even worse than the initial swelling was.'" (HuffPost)

Sinusitis occurs when a germ finds its way into the sinuses and then becomes trapped, causing inflammation, pressure, and pain. Don't live with the pain. Let us help you.

The nasal cycle is central to various breathing practices in Yoga and in various systems of alternative medicine. These systems believe the breathing pattern is directly linked to the working of the mind. The ultimate desire is to balance the left and right sides of the mind.
