Services
Allergy Testing
Our comprehensive allergy testing identifies triggers for seasonal and perennial allergies through controlled skin exposure. Board-certified specialists interpret results to create targeted treatment plans. This service benefits patients seeking long-term relief from allergic reactions affecting respiratory and skin health.
Immunotherapy
Customized immunotherapy programs gradually desensitize patients to allergens through regular injections. This evidence-based treatment addresses underlying immune responses rather than just symptoms. Ideal for patients with severe allergies unresponsive to conventional medications.
Oral Immunotherapy
Oral Immunotherapy (OIT) safely introduces small amounts of allergenic foods to build tolerance. We specialize in peanut, cashew, pistachio, and egg desensitization. This supervised program offers hope for patients with life-altering food allergies through structured dose escalation.
Asthma Management
Comprehensive asthma care combines diagnostic testing with personalized treatment plans. Our specialists monitor lung function and adjust therapies to maintain optimal breathing control. Services include spirometry testing and inhaler technique training for improved symptom management.
Telemedicine Visits
Secure telemedicine appointments provide convenient access to specialist care through our Patient Portal. Patients receive evaluations, medication reviews, and treatment adjustments without office visits. This service maintains continuity of care for established patients requiring routine follow-ups.

Our son has been seeing Dr. Miller at Allergy Associates for many years. He has been treated with both allergy shots and has now completed his peanut Oral Immunotherapy Treatment, offered almost nowhere else in Michigan. We love Dr. Miller. He is very thorough and makes sure to answer every question that we may have. My 17 year old son enjoys talking to him about all things science, and Dr. Miller always takes the time to converse with him about non-allergy topics as well.
Our family would highly recommend Dr. Miller for your allergy/asthma issues, as well as if you're looking for Oral Immunotherapy. My son had not ever eaten a peanut in 17 years of his life, and he ate 24 peanuts today through the program that took just over 5 months. Amazing results. He also is almost allergy-free after being on maintenance for his multiple environmental allergies. Easy office to get to, very friendly office staff and the nurses can't be beat.

We've taken 3 of our 4 kids to Dr. Miller all for different symptoms and I can not say enough about how much he's helped us! Though we tested them all for allergies, only one ended up with traditional allergies and doing the allergy shots. With the others, after ruling out allergies, he was able to point us in the right direction. With one daughter, Dr. Miller noticed enlarged tonsils and recommended we go to an ENT.
We got her tonsils removed and it's made a huge difference and resolved the problems we were having with coughing and sleep! With another daughter we were having some serious breathing issues and went to a lot of doctors. Dr. Miller was the first to recognize the signs of Vocal Cord Dysfunction and he referred us to great doctors who could help us!

We started Oral Immunotherapy with Dr. Miller, and throughout our process, he has been available, compassionate, patient and extremely informative. He cares about the well being of his patients and he clearly knows what he is doing. Our questions and concerns are always answered proficiently. We are lucky to be on this journey with such a caring and intelligent doctor!

I brought my 3 year old daughter to see Dr. Miller last week. He was very friendly and made her feel at ease right away. After a thorough conversation and asking specific questions to understand exactly what my daughter's symptoms were, Dr. Miller was able to create a plan for keeping her asthma under control. I highly recommend Dr. Miller and am pleased to have found a doctor who is knowledgeable and committed to giving his patients quality care.

So my daughter with a peanut and tree nut allergy had begun to see Dr Miller, he took the time to explain information and moving forward with a new type of treatment. After 22 weeks our daughter is doing amazing and experiencing life like she has never been able to. His outlook and drive to help people is amazing. We recommend Allergy Associates of Western Michigan to anyone struggling with allergies to food or the environment.

We are going to Allergy Associates of West MI for peanut OIT. Dr. Miller has really done his research and we feel very comfortable in his care. The nursing staff never miss a beat and keep up with the the strict time requirements OIT requires as well as working with their other allergy patients. We have had nothing but a good experience with their office and would recommend them to anyone looking for an allergist!

The staff here is amazingly friendly and very thorough! I never feel rushed at my visits and all of my concerns are addressed to my satisfaction. I do wish they were open on Fridays. The phone hours and injection hours are quite confusing, so I wish they would be more consistent.
