Dr. Ispas is a top-ranked allergy and immunology specialist with nearly two decades of experience providing customized treatment to patients of all ages. She currently sees patients at her private practice, Allergy Asthma & Immunology Institute. She has earned the respect of both her peers and her patients, thanks to her extensive experience, genuine concern for each patient’s unique needs, and her ability to provide treatment that produces long-lasting remission and management of asthma and allergy symptoms.

As the best allergist in Leesburg, Virginia, she has created an environment that is warm and welcoming while also providing state-of-the-art technology. Patients receive top-quality care together with the convenience of on-site services, such as pulmonary function testing.

A native of Romania, Dr. Ispas earned her medical degree from the Victor Babes University of Medicine and Pharmacy in 1990. After relocating to the United States, she completed her residency in internal medicine and her fellowship in allergy, asthma, and immunology at East Carolina University in 1999 and 2001, respectively.

Allergy and immunology involve the management of disorders related to the immune system. These conditions range from the very common to the very rare, spanning all ages and encompassing various organ systems.
