Comprehensive Allergy and Dermatology Clinic
Our Comprehensive Allergy and Dermatology Clinic covers a wide range of conditions, such as:
Atopic Dermatitis (Eczema) is a chronic skin condition that involves a cycle of intense itching of the skin and skin lesions. It is a common skin disease that affects up to one in every five infants. Atopic dermatitis can cause infections and affect sleep quality, mood and behavior. It can require optimal nutrition to treat properly.
Chronic hives are red, itchy welts that can be very bothersome and have a variety of causes. If hives last for more than six weeks or keep recurring, they are considered chronic and need specialized treatment.
Medication allergies or sensitivities can cause a wide range of skin-related symptoms and may impact other parts of the body. Our team can help identify which medication(s) caused the reaction, which medications are safe to use and which ones to avoid.
Allergic contact dermatitis is a condition that results from direct contact with a substance that causes a delayed allergic response. Many substances can trigger allergic contact dermatitis, including soaps, creams, cosmetics, jewelry, plants or chemicals. Whatever is causing your child’s condition, we can help identify the cause and find ways to manage your child’s condition effectively.
If your child’s immune system is not working properly, your child will be prone to infections and conditions that can affect the whole body, including the skin. We work in conjunction with experts in the Immunohematology Clinic to provide the best possible care for your child.
Children who are affected by skin conditions often have challenges with self-image and socializing. Our team can help your child stay positive and confident with ongoing mental health check-ins. We also offer cognitive and behavioral strategies to support physical comfort.
Our team can provide dietary guidance to ensure your child gets needed nutrition while helping to heal their skin.
