The Allergy Division
is devoted to the comprehensive evaluation and management of children
with asthma, and allergies. Disorders routinely seen include rhinitis
(hay fever), sinusitis, hives, recurrent ear infections, allergic
headaches (migraine), food allergies and eczema. It provides the
evaluation and management of the individual with allergies as it
pertains to the respiratory, cutaneous and/or gastrointestinal system.
Our team of
doctors assess each patient individually using skin testing, patch
testing, in vitro allergy (blood) testing, and breathing evaluations
in order to develop an effective treatment program. The division
is also involved in a number of pharmaceutical drug studies that
may lead to new medications for allergy treatment.
