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.
