At Allergy and Clinical our focus is educating our patients along with their families to have a clear understanding of their condition. Each one of our nurses are qualified to guide and teach you about information regarding asthma and allergies so you can live life to its fullest.
Our overall goal is to provide the highest quality care to each one of our patients whether it be with allergic diseases, asthma, and immune deficiency disorders. We work to build a partnership with our patients and families to reach their goal of a symptom-free life to participate in work, school, and recreational activities.
When it comes to asthma, we are in teaching, counseling, those with asthma and helping their family understand the necessities of asthma to help minimize the stress brought on to the family and patient. Allergy and Clinic has a variety of certified asthma educators that are required to pass their national board exam and keep continuing asthma education afterward to maintain the certification.
