- Pediatric CareYou may verify that a doctor is board certified at http://www.certificationmatters.org/is-your-doctor-board-certified.aspx or call toll-free 1-866-ASK-ABMS (275-2267). A short registration and log-on may be required for the website. You should verify specific certification from the American Board of Allergy & Immunology. Note, physicians may be board certified in other specialties (for example, pediatrics and internal medicine) and be considered "board certified"; however, this does not assure proper subspecialty certification specifically for Allergy and Immunology.

- AllergiesWhen a food allergy isn’t a food allergy - If you suspect your child has a food allergy, but you aren’t sure, consult a board-certified allergist. A food allergy results in specific symptoms (e.g., hives, wheezing, cough, vomiting, etc.) developing within a couple of hours of eating. Without a good history, allergy testing may not be indicated. Positive allergy blood or skin tests alone aren’t enough to make a food allergy diagnosis. Many more people test positive than will have actual food allergy. This results in people thinking they can’t eat something, when they actually might be able to.
