AllergyWaco vs Aspire Allergy & Sinus
If you're picking between Allergy & Asthma Care of Waco and Aspire Allergy & Sinus, you're choosing between two different kinds of practice. We're an independent allergy clinic that's been in Waco for over 45 years. Aspire is a national allergy and sinus network with a Waco location and dozens of others across the country. Here's what that means for your care, your visits, and your treatment options.

Both practices treat allergies in Waco. The biggest differences come down to how your care is structured. AllergyWaco is independent and physician-owned, with the same team caring for you across every visit and over 45 years of treating Central Texas allergens. Aspire is a national network that brings standardized protocols and in-office sinus procedures. If you want a long-term relationship with allergists who know your specific environment and triggers, an independent clinic is usually the better fit. If you also need sinus surgery in addition to allergy care, you'll want a clinic that offers both.
Three things help most. First, look at how the practice handles immunotherapy: do they offer both shots and drops, and will they help you choose? Second, find out if you'll see the same provider each visit. Continuity makes a real difference over the three to five years immunotherapy takes to work. Third, ask whether the clinic tracks local pollen and seasonal patterns. Allergists who watch their local environment closely tend to give more accurate seasonal advice.
Call us at (254) 753-3646. We will request your records from your current provider, schedule your first visit, and have one of our allergists review your immunotherapy protocol so you can continue your shots or drops without interruption. Most patients are seen within a week.
Yes. We offer both allergy shots (subcutaneous immunotherapy) and allergy drops (sublingual immunotherapy). Each has different success rates and fits different lifestyles. Your allergist will walk you through which option matches your situation, your schedule, and your preferences.
Most major insurance plans we accept cover allergy testing, immunotherapy, and biologics. Our team will verify your coverage before your first visit and walk you through any questions about copays or deductibles. Bring your insurance card and a list of your current medications to your first appointment.
