Treatment
Diagnosis, management, and oral immunotherapy for peanut, tree nut, egg, milk, and other food allergies — across all ages.
Children and adults with suspected or confirmed food allergies, families looking for clear guidance, and patients interested in oral immunotherapy.
We combine history, testing, and (when safe) oral food challenges to confirm allergies precisely. Many patients discover they aren't actually allergic to everything they've been avoiding.
Varies by case
Food allergy is commonly over-diagnosed. Many patients arrive with a long list of foods they've been told to avoid — but when we actually test and, where safe, perform supervised food challenges, we often find the true allergen list is much shorter.
A supervised food challenge is the gold standard for confirming (or ruling out) a food allergy. It's done in-office, with full safety precautions and emergency medication ready. Most challenges are completed in a single morning.
For certain food allergies — particularly peanut — we offer oral immunotherapy. OIT involves giving small, gradually increasing amounts of the allergen daily to build tolerance. It's a significant commitment, but for the right patients it can be life-changing.
