Why Allergy Testing Matters
Allergies are more than just a nuisance—they can interfere with sleep, concentration, and daily comfort. Identifying the source of your symptoms is the first step toward effective treatment. Many people live with allergies for years without realizing the root cause of their discomfort.
At Patient Choice Medical Care, we use
noninvasive testing methods to pinpoint allergens and develop a personalized care plan. Our goal is to help you breathe easier, feel better, and regain control over your health.
Common Allergy Symptoms
If you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms, allergy testing may be right for you:
Sneezing, nasal congestion, or runny nose
Itchy or watery eyes
Chronic cough or throat irritation
Skin rashes or hives
Headaches or sinus pressure
Fatigue or brain fog
Digestive discomfort after eating certain foods
These symptoms can be triggered by a wide range of allergens, including pollen, dust mites, pet dander, mold, foods, and chemicals. Our testing process helps identify what’s affecting you so we can create a targeted treatment plan.
Noninvasive Allergy Testing Options
We offer a variety of
noninvasive allergy tests that are safe, quick, and effective. Depending on your symptoms and medical history, we may recommend:
Skin Prick Testing: A small amount of allergen is applied to the skin to observe for a reaction. This test is fast and minimally uncomfortable.
Blood Testing (IgE Panels): Measures your immune system’s response to specific allergens through a simple blood draw.
All tests are performed under the supervision of experienced clinicians, and results are typically available within a few days.
Personalized Treatment Plans
Once we’ve identified your specific allergens, we’ll work with you to create a treatment plan that fits your lifestyle and goals. Treatment options may include:
Avoidance Strategies: Guidance on how to reduce exposure to known allergens at home, work, or school.
Medications: Antihistamines, nasal sprays, or other prescriptions to manage symptoms
Immunotherapy : For patients with severe or persistent allergies, we can treat you with immunotherapy and shots. If needed we can refer you to an specialist.
Lifestyle Counseling: Tips on diet, air quality, and environmental changes that can reduce flare-ups.
Our approach is holistic and patient-centered. We believe that managing allergies is about more than just treating symptoms—it’s about improving your overall quality of life.
