More testimonials for Dr. David V. Martini, MD, FACS:

All my life I had suffered from chronic bronchitis and seemed to have more sinus issues than what was deemed normal for the average person. Breathing became even more problematic after having broken my nose as a teenager. The hot, humid, often breezeless days of a southern summer would leave me gasping for air like fish out of water. When I went into the military, I elected to have surgery to correct the deviated septum, which the teenage mishap had caused, but still was never able to really breath through the left nostril.

Constantly sick and down in bed for days at a time, I spent years trying to seek relief from one physician after another and getting more aggravated with each prescription handed me that never seemed to work. One day my husband suggested that I see a doctor that he had recently found that seemed be helping his issues with sinus and allergies. I decided to see Dr Martini on my husbands recommendation and so glad I did! After a few surgeries to correct what my genetic makeup had given me along with the incident as a teenager, I no longer am getting the terrible colds and bronchiole issues that I was constantly plagued with and can now truly breath fresh air through both nostrils-something I haven't been able to do in such a long time.

My heart felt thanks to Dr. Martini and his wonderful staff for making this possible.

Having suffered with sinus drainage and sinus infections for many years, it was recommended that I see Dr. Martini about this problem. He discovered that I had lymph tissue growing at the back of my tongue, which caused me to clear my throat to move the tissue off my trachea.

This past summer Dr. Martini performed surgery on my sinuses and treated my tongue with radio waves to shrink the lymph tissue on my tongue. It has been five months since I had the surgery. I can breathe better now without having to clear my throat. I feel rested when I wake up in the morning. I wish I had known sooner that my breathing problems could be so easily corrected.

Since being tested for allergies and receiving allergy shots, there has been a significant difference in the way I feel. I can attest that the shots work wonderfully with where I live (in the woods). I used to get routine sinus infections prior to receiving the allergy shots, but I haven't had any infections in the last 3 1/2 years since receiving the shots. I've missed receiving my allergy shots sometimes for weeks at a time due to my schedule, and the difference in the way I feel is very evident. You have been very instrumental in making my everyday life more comfortable. It is a pleasure coming to see you every week, you make the experience pleasant. If anyone has any doubts that allergy shots work, please feel free to use me as a reference.

Dr. Martini has a wonderful office and staff and always make the time to see me. He is very cordial and professional. I was recommended to your office 3 1/2 years ago and highly recommend your office to anyone I talk to.

Thank you,

After breaking my nose in 1960 and having surgery for a deviated septum in 1970 (which, by the way, never removed the "bump" on my nose), I thought all was well in myworld. But since that time, things were slowly getting worse with each year that went by. By the time I saw Dr. Martini, I had a constant post-nasal drip going on that caused repetitive coughing and clearing of my throat. I also had sinus infection flare-ups as often as four times a year. I had constant headaches and ear aches on my right side, and my nasal breathing ability had decreased so much that I was mouth breathing a lot of the time and had to wear a breathing strip in order to sleep at night. I also still had this "bump" on my nose that prevented my glasses from fitting right.

It is now 2 months since Dr. Martini "worked his magic" during surgery. I could breathe right from the very first day, and that improved even more as the swelling went away and the healing took place. To my surprise, I am also smelling and tasting things that I didn't even realize I had been missing. I have absolutely no need for those nasal strips and my headaches and ear aches have completely disappeared. I am such a "happy camper"! Oh by the way, that "bump" no longer exists and I just know that when I get my new glasses there will be no problems getting them to fit properly.

I am happily telling everyone I meet about what the "magic fingers" of Dr. Martini have done for me!

Thank you Dr. Martini!!

I had acute sinusitis, problems with headache and pressure in the eyes and nose.

I had seen many doctors but with no luck until I met Dr. Martini, and I have not had a problem since.
