Robert F. Onder, MD
“My brother had severe asthma as a child and young adult, and that inspired me to choose medicine because it was a field in which I could apply my interest in science in a way that could directly help people. I always enjoy caring for asthma and allergy patients because we make people feel better and improve their quality of life. I believe it is important to get to the root of the patient’s problem and to not only treat symptoms. To deliver quality, personalized healthcare, I’ve become a better, more careful listener. In training, there is a precise ‘right way’ to approach every patient. In my practice, I’ve embraced the philosophy that care must be individualized.”

Ruth Turner, FNP
Ruth grew up in Northeast Ohio. She knew she wanted to follow up in her grandmother and mother’s footsteps and become a nurse by the time she was in 4th grade. She graduated with her nursing degree from Indiana Wesleyan University in 2000. She started her nursing career as a school nurse and mission worker in Quito, Ecuador. She returned to Ohio and worked in a local hospital for a few years. She then decided to join the United states Air Force in 2003 and spent the next 4.5 years in active service working in the ICU unit at Scott Air Force Base. She then transitioned to the Air Force Reserves where she is currently with the 932nd Airlift wing at Scott AFB. She also has several years of experience in the cardiac cath lab. She returned to school and finished her Master of Science in Nursing in 2013. She worked for family practice until joining Dr Onder in 2021.
“As a nurse practitioner, I have the privilege of providing holistic care for my patients. I understand that allergies and asthma can directly affect a patients quality of life and feel it is important to work together with my patients to find the best management of these conditions. It is critical that my patients feel comfortable, respected, and confident in my skills and abilities.”
In her free time, Ruth enjoys spending time reading and being outside with her husband and 4 children.

I wanted to feel better, but I didn’t want to give up my pets. A few weeks after Day 1 allergy relief, I can breathe again.
As a busy mother with young children, I didn’t have time for traditional allergy shots. But when I found out I could get better after just one half-day allergy therapy, I was sold. My stuffiness has gone away, and my eyes aren’t puffy. I recommend this to all my friends.
I had a miserable spring last year, but this year, after Day 1 allergy relief therapy, I was able to go outside again to bicycle and run. This is great!
I suffered from allergies for years, but I always thought allergy shots took too long to work. But now, one week after Day 1 allergy relief, I feel great. I should have done this years ago.
