Asthma Care

Asthma & Allergy Management

Our practice provides asthma and allergy management for our patients. Our pediatricians are trained in the diagnosis and management of childhood asthma and allergies. Diagnosis is usually made during a sick visit when a child is wheezing or exhibiting symptoms of allergies. Occasionally, we may diagnose your child with asthma or allergies during a preventive care visit based on patient or parent concerns or our exam findings.

Asthma Education

We teach about environmental controls and avoidance of triggers. We will provide an Asthma Action Plan for your child for school and will provide a Food Allergy Action Plan if needed.

Maintenance Visits

Children with asthma should be seen in our office every 3-12 months depending on their severity of illness and their asthma control. Regular visits are required in order for us to evaluate your child prior to medication refills.
