Welcome to East Valley Allergy & Asthma Center

At East Valley Allergy & Asthma Center, we believe that great medicine starts with genuinely listening to the patient. We are a Gilbert-based allergy and asthma practice dedicated to providing thorough, personalized care that gets to the root of what's affecting your health — and your quality of life.

Who we are

Meet Dr. Doina Lapusan, MD

Dr. Doina Lapusan is a Board-Certified Allergist and Immunologist with over 35 years of clinical experience. Throughout her career, she has remained committed to practicing medicine the way it was meant to be practiced — with time, attention, and genuine care for each and every patient.

In a healthcare landscape where appointments are often rushed and patients can feel like a number, Dr. Lapusan stands apart. She takes the time to truly understand your history, your concerns, and your goals, and she works with you — not just for you — to find solutions that make a real difference. Her patients consistently describe her as thorough, compassionate, and refreshingly unhurried.

Dr. Lapusan's approach is results-focused. She isn't satisfied until her patients are seeing meaningful improvement, and she brings both the depth of her experience and the warmth of her bedside manner to every visit.

Contact Us

We're Here to Help

At East Valley Allergy & Asthma Center, we do things a little differently. We believe the best patient experience starts with a real conversation — not an automated form or a message in a queue. Whether you're ready to schedule an appointment or simply have a question, we invite you to give us a call. Our team is always happy to talk with you directly and give you the personal attention you deserve.

Get in Touch

The best way to reach us is by phone.

(480) 855-9119

When you call, you'll speak with a real member of our team — someone who can answer your questions, discuss your needs, and get you scheduled right away. We think that's a much better experience than filling out a form and waiting for a reply.

We welcome calls during regular business hours. If you reach our voicemail, please leave a message and we will return your call as promptly as possible.

Email COMING SOON!

Email is available for general inquiries, but for the fastest response and to schedule an appointment, we always recommend calling us directly.

Office Address 3491 S. Mercy Rd., Suite 101 Gilbert, AZ 85297

Schedule an Appointment

Ready to take the first step toward feeling better? We'd love to hear from you. Simply give us a call at (480) 855-9119 and a member of our team will take care of you from there. We'll take the time to understand what you're experiencing and find an appointment time that works for your schedule.

We prefer scheduling over the phone because it gives us the chance to get to know you a little before your first visit — and that's exactly the kind of practice we are.

New patients are always welcome!
