Congestion. Sneezing. Runny nose. Stuffy nose. These symptoms may be all too familiar to those with allergic rhinitis – sometimes called seasonal allergies or hay fever.

Dr. Michael Yong is a board certified otolaryngologist PNI. He provides full-service general otolaryngology care, specializing in nose, sinus and skull base disorders. Using minimally invasive techniques, Dr. Yong treats all manner of related issues including allergic and non-allergic rhinitis.
