Meet the Doctors Dedicated to Keeping You Allergy-Free

Dr. Ulrich Ringwald

"I established the Allergy & Asthma Center of Rochester in 1974 with the goal of improving peoples' quality of life. For over 50 years, I have kept my promise to my patients and myself, to offer advanced diagnosis and treatment options, backed by a dedication to providing comprehensive, personal care."

Extending an Advanced Understanding

Helping People Enjoy Life

"Golf is my pleasure, and I cannot imagine letting an illness keep me from the game. I understand my patients' frustrations when allergies keep them from taking part in the activities they enjoy.

Providing More Than What's Expected

"Staying up-to-date on the newest treatments available is extremely important. My dedication to learning more about advanced treatments has earned me the respect of the medical community and the trust of my patients."

Dr. Robert Czarnecki

"My training taught me the medical side of asthma and allergy care, as well as how to help people feel better and live healthier. But, there is another side to healthcare that can't be taught -- empathizing with patients. In the years that I've been in practice, I like to think that listening to my patients (you), explaining all your options and understanding your concerns is my real specialty."

A Strong Educational Foundation

"My feeling is that a solid academic background is critical to giving patients medical care they can count on. To achieve this, I attended respected schools and continue to work hard to attain the very best education possible. I'm grateful for the knowledge I've received and the skills I've developed. These skills will be the foundation for my personalized and effective care for years to come."

Sharing with His Peers

"Lifelong professional memberships are must-haves in today's medical world. By meeting with other allergy and asthma specialists, participating in clinical studies and maintaining hospital affiliations, I can share my knowledge with my peers and learn from them, as well. This enables me to provide my patients with more informed, advanced care."
