“I suffered from severe allergies for YEARS and was tired of taking medication every day. Allergy immunotherapy was life changing for me. I have my life back and my insurance paid for it.”
"This will be the first year that I am not dreading tree pollen and will be able to enjoy springtime in Portland. Thank you - this is such a gift!"
"Oh,my! After just a few visits I can breath so much better, my headaches are gone and I don't have a constant sore throat. I wish I would have found this solution years ago. I can't wait to tell all my friends!"
"They made the entire process so easy! They were very attentive to my concerns and provided a thoughtful solution to my allergies. I had been made accustom to being dismissed by doctors in the past- so I was grateful for their patience and mindfulness."
"After almost a full year of multiple doctor visits around town, just the allergy test consultation was exceptional compared to previous appointments."
"Very good experience. I felt at ease at this visit. I come once a week for my allergy shot. The entire staff is competent and caring. All staff is masked and the facility is hygienically clean. I highly recommend them and look forward to my next appointment."

Food allergy is an immune system reaction that occurs soon after eating a certain food. Even a tiny amount of the allergy-causing food can trigger signs and symptoms such as digestive problems, hives or swollen airways. In some people, a food allergy can cause severe symptoms or even a life-threatening reaction known as anaphylaxis.

Pet allergy is an allergic reaction to proteins found in an animal's skin cells, saliva or urine. Signs of pet allergy include those common to hay fever, such as sneezing and runny nose. Some people may also experience signs of asthma, such as wheezing and difficulty breathing.

Grasses are the most common cause of allergy. Other common sources of weed pollen include sagebrush, pigweed, lamb's quarters and tumbleweed. Certain species of trees, including birch, cedar and oak, also produce highly allergenic pollen.
Diagnose your Allergy
To diagnose your allergy, our provider will use a skin prick test (SPT) to measure the presence of the IgE antibodies for the suspect allergen. The SPTs are needle free, pain free, produce immediate results, and can be done in the providers office. During the test, the provider places small amounts of solution containing the allergen on your forearm or your back. Using a small plastic applicator the provider gently “scratches” the skin to allow a tiny amount of solution to enter just below the skin surface. The scratching of the skin feels similar to a fingernail scratch.
SEE YOURSELF ALLERGY FREE!
Before starting treatment, you and your local Portland allergist identify trigger factors for allergy symptoms by performing thorough testing.

Once the testing is completed the allergist will discuss your treatment plan. At each subsequent visit, you will receive a tiny amount of the specific substance or substances that trigger your allergic reactions. Your body responds by gradually, developing immunity or tolerance to the allergen. Improvement of symptoms can be noticed within a few weeks of treatment. Continuing your treatment most often leads to a complete cure.
