About This Practice

Aspire's Katy office is at 23530 Kingsland Blvd, Suite 203, in Katy. According to the practice, it serves Katy and nearby areas such as Falcon Rock, Springfield, Heritage Square and Governors Place. Its website lists Sandra Okere (FNP-C) at this office. Aspire describes ExACT Immunoplasty℠ as a form of intralymphatic immunotherapy: small amounts of allergen go into the inguinal lymph node, in the groin, under ultrasound guidance, three times over eight weeks. The practice says each procedure takes about 5 to 10 minutes, followed by a 60 minute observation period, and that up to three allergens can be included in each treatment series. The first step is an allergy test, which Aspire says covers up to 58 allergens with results the same day. If ExACT is a fit, the first treatment can be scheduled that same day. Patients need an epinephrine auto injector on treatment days, and anyone taking a beta blocker must have their doctor pause it for at least 24 hours before each treatment. Aspire also lists allergy drops, allergy shots, food allergy testing, oral immunotherapy for food allergies and sinus care among its services.

Rob Redfeather★★★★★

She was thorough and her recommendations were explained in a way easy to understand all the options. The entire staff were great. Giselle was awesome. I would definitely recommend her and them to everyone. My only negative comment has to do with the building... narrow doorways not wide enough for my mobility scooter. But Aspire and Giselle were awesome!!!!
