4 Questions to Ask Your Allergist in Kirkwood, Atlanta GA

With allergy testing, a patient can be checked for allergies and the severity of those allergies. You’ll very likely benefit from testing if you’ve been suffering from allergy symptoms like coughing and wheezing. Testing is easily accessible and affordable for many patients, and Medicare and Medicaid can cover the cost of a test like a skin test. Your test will likely be covered if:

– You have some documented history of allergies/allergic reactions
– Your symptoms aren’t controlled well enough or at all by therapy
– It’s probable that you’ll be exposed to the allergen(s) in question in the future
– The testing technique is proven

A proven and very common technique for testing is the skin test. It involves gently pricking the skin and introducing a small amount of allergen to the area. Our allergists provide this technique here at Allergy & Asthma Center, as well as other techniques like intradermal tests and blood tests.

At our clinic, our allergists offer both testing and treatment for allergies. We can help in a number of additional ways too, and anyone of any age can be seen by our allergists. If you or, say, your child is affected by allergies or asthma, we can help and provide any of the following services:
