Allergy Testing
Our comprehensive allergy testing services include skin prick testing for environmental allergens, patch testing for chemical contact allergies, and food allergy assessments. These diagnostic tools help identify specific triggers for personalized treatment plans. Patients receive detailed explanations of test results and follow-up care recommendations from our board-certified specialists.
Immunotherapy
We offer both subcutaneous (allergy shots) and sublingual immunotherapy options for long-term allergy management. This treatment approach gradually desensitizes patients to allergens through controlled exposure. Our customized immunotherapy programs address environmental allergies, dust mites, grass pollens, and specific food allergens with regular monitoring by experienced physicians.
Asthma Management
Our clinic provides specialized asthma care featuring pulmonary function testing, medication management, and trigger avoidance strategies. We develop individualized asthma action plans while monitoring disease progression through regular follow-ups. Treatment includes pharmacotherapy and environmental control measures tailored to each patient's specific needs and severity level.
Eczema Treatment
We diagnose and treat atopic dermatitis and contact dermatitis through comprehensive skin evaluations and patch testing. Our approach combines topical treatments, allergen avoidance strategies, and biologic therapies when appropriate. Patients receive personalized skincare plans and education about managing flare-ups and preventing complications.
Food Allergy Care
Our food allergy services include diagnostic testing, oral food challenges, and specific oral immunotherapy options. We help patients identify problematic foods through elimination diets and controlled exposure protocols. Treatment plans focus on safe dietary management, emergency preparedness, and gradual desensitization strategies under medical supervision.
