We offer comprehensive skin testing that can test for allergies to pollen, dust, mold, pets, and food. More extensive testing is available for select environmental allergens.

Skin prick testing can be performed on any age, including babies. This type of testing is performed by pricking a small amount of an allergen into the top layer of skin with a plastic device. While it can be itchy, it does not cause pain. Results of skin testing is available on the same day as your appointment.

Some people may not be eligible for skin testing, like if you are on a beta blocker. We can offer blood testing for these people. We will discuss additional medications that need to be stopped prior to testing during your first consultation.

If you have seen an allergist or ever had allergy testing done in the past, please bring your results with you to your appointment.

If you have cough, difficulty breathing, or wheezing, we can help.

We offer in-office spirometry to assess your overall lung health. This simple test can be done on the same day as your appointment, and can be performed on children as young as 5-6 years old.

If you have a stubborn rash that won’t go away, you may wonder if you have an allergy to a chemical that might be in your cosmetics, skincare products, or in something you come into contact with at work. These reactions can be difficult to diagnose because they are often delayed in nature.

Patch testing may help determine the cause of your symptoms. Patch tests are applied on a Monday, and you let the test develop for 48 hours at home. We will remove the patches on Wednesday, and check your skin again on Thursday to see if you have any delayed allergies.

An oral food or medication challenge is a medical procedure used to diagnose food or medication allergies.

This controlled test is typically performed under medical supervision in our office to confirm whether a specific food or medication triggers an allergic reaction. We require updated food testing within 6 months of oral challenges to ensure that the test is safe to perform.

This type of test is also appropriate for adults who had a mild reaction to penicillin during childhood and can help de-label penicillin allergies.

We can conduct oral challenges in any age, as long as the patient is motivated to eat the food.
