Services
Allergy Testing
Our comprehensive allergy testing identifies specific allergens through skin prick tests and blood analysis. Board-certified allergists interpret results alongside detailed medical histories to create targeted treatment plans. This diagnostic approach helps manage symptoms from mild reactions to life-threatening anaphylaxis.
Asthma Management
We offer advanced asthma diagnostics including pulmonary function tests and methacholine challenges. Treatment plans combine trigger avoidance strategies, medication management, and biologic therapies to control symptoms and prevent attacks while maintaining quality of life.
Food Allergies
Specialized evaluation for food allergies includes detailed patient histories, skin testing, and supervised food challenges. Our team develops personalized avoidance plans and emergency protocols while providing nutritional guidance for maintaining balanced diets despite restrictions.
Immunotherapy
Custom immunotherapy programs use gradual allergen exposure to build tolerance over time. This long-term treatment option addresses underlying allergies rather than just symptoms, with options for traditional injections and sublingual tablets for specific allergens.
Telemedicine
Secure telehealth appointments provide convenient access to specialist consultations for follow-ups and treatment adjustments. This service maintains continuity of care for established patients while reducing travel requirements through HIPAA-compliant video conferencing technology.

If you get a nurse practitioner, even though you made an appointment with the doctor, and had to wait for haf a year, be ready to hear, that you are not going to be tested because nurses don't get paid for it, and they will be giving you a favor if they do it. With all the respect I am a little bit disappointed in that. They should tell you before the appointment that there will be no doctor seen you today, so you don't waist your time.

BEST experience EVER. I have a 7 year old boy with ADD and ADHD. the appointment was long, but everyone checked on us every 15 minutes so it didn't feel as long. Very sweet to children. I would recommend to anyone!
