Services & Programs

Our allergy specialists care for infants, children, and adolescents with:

  • Environmental allergies
  • Food allergies and anaphylaxis
  • Hymenoptera sting allergy
  • Latex allergy
  • Angioedema
  • Atopic and contact dermatitis
  • Other allergy and immunology disorders

Diagnosis & Treatment

To determine the cause of your child's symptoms, we offer an array of diagnostic tests, such as:

  • Thorough medical history, family history, and physical examination
  • Skin testing for environmental allergies
  • Pulmonary function testing for asthmatics
  • Blood tests to evaluate immune system function

We offer a wide range of treatments for children with allergies and immunodeficiencies and customize our treatment approach to your child's specific medical condition. Our therapies may include:

  • The latest and most effective corticosteroids (anti-inflammatory medications for patients with asthma)
  • Bronchodilators to ease breathing
  • Immunotherapy (allergy shots and under-the-tongue treatments), which can help your child develop a tolerance to allergens
  • Antihistamines

If an environmental source is triggering the allergy, we explore ways you can control or eliminate the allergen.
