What to Expect
Appointments are scheduled with a referral from your child’s primary care provider.
Your child's first visit with us focuses on understanding their symptoms, medical history and your concerns. There is no need to stop allergy medications before the initial appointment.
During the visit, we may:
- Review your child's medical and allergy history
- Discuss symptoms and previous allergic reactions
- Review prior testing and treatment if any
- Answer questions and concerns about your child’s condition
- Develop an individualized evaluation and treatment plan
If allergy testing is recommended, your care team will explain next steps and help schedule follow-up appointments.

Talk with your child's primary care provider if you believe your child may benefit from evaluation by a pediatric allergy and immunology specialist.
