Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Do I need a referral?
Our practice does not require a referral; however, your insurance plan may. Check with your insurance provider if you want to be sure your insurance covers the cost of our services.

Do you see asthma patients?
We are often consulted to perform allergy evaluation and treatment for asthma patients, but our practice does not take primary responsibility for medical treatment of asthma.

Some Common Allergy Questions:

Do you see patients with allergic skin reaction/rash?
Yes, but our evaluation is limited to allergy evaluation of foods and inhalants.

Do allergies cause asthma?
Yes, many asthma symptoms are caused by treatable allergies. Allergy treatment may help to reduce other medications used for treatment of asthma.

How long will I need allergy shots?
Many allergy sufferers can stop shots after three to five years and still do well. Often, patients with asthma or chronic sinusitis may need to continue allergy shots indefinitely, especially if treatment is effective.
