What to expect your first visit

Your first visit will consist of review of history and a physical with the doctor, possible skin testing, and medications if ordered. The purpose of this visit is to obtain extensive medical information concerning your problem. If skin testing is indicated, the initial appointment may be a half an hour or longer. If you or your child to be evaluated is ill, no skin testing will be done until they are well; however, the history and physical evaluation can still be performed at the initial visit.

MEDICATIONS THAT CAN INTERFERE WITH ALLERGY SKIN TESTING

When all information required is obtained, the doctor will discuss your entire problem and outline a detailed course of action. If it is recommended that you are to start allergy injections, your program of treatment will be discussed.
