    I had a fantastic experience during my clinic visit with Dr. ADAM DECONDE. From the moment I arrived, he was incredibly attentive and took the time to thoroughly listen to my concerns. He provided a detailed explanation of my chronic symptoms and recommended an immediate course of treatment for my emerging sinus infection, which gave me a clear path to feeling better soon and ahead of holiday travels. Additionally, Dr. ADAM DECONDE took a thoughtful approach to discuss long-term care and the option of revision surgery, ensuring I fully understood my options moving forward. I truly appreciate his expertise and the personalized care I received.
