William A. McCann, MD
Born and raised outside of Baltimore, I have called North Carolina home since completing medical school. After my pediatrics training at Duke, I practiced general pediatrics for three years in Hendersonville. During this time, I realized that my passion lies in the treatment of allergies and asthma. After a brief sojourn in Augusta, Georgia for allergy and immunology training, my family and I returned to Western North Carolina, and I joined Allergy Partners.
Since then, my interest in allergy and asthma care has continued to grow. From a scientific standpoint, the field is ever changing and intellectually rewarding. From a personal standpoint, I find working with patients and families both satisfying and fun.
I strive to provide each patient with a comprehensive and personalized evaluation and treatment plan that not only treats his or her condition but fits with his or her lifestyle. I firmly believe that we should work together to control allergic diseases and asthma and not let them control you.
I have particular interest in working with patients, both adult and pediatric, suffering from allergies, asthma, eczema, and chronic sinusitis. In addition to my work with patients, I also serve as Vice-President and Chief Medical Officer for Allergy Partners. In this role, I strive to improve systems of care to ensure that all our patients and their families receive the very best care.
