General Practitioners

• Pediatric Care
  Allergists are the only medical professionals exclusively trained to deal with allergies, asthma, and immunological diseases. When you or your child are seen by an allergist, you can rest assured that you are seeing the medical specialist most experienced and familiar with the issues you may be facing. Allergists undergo extensive training: one must complete medical school, residency (in pediatrics and/or internal medicine) AND an additional fellowship training in Allergy and Immunology. Only after nearly a decade of medical training can physicians sit for the Board exam.

Internists

• Internal Medicine
  We are proud to feature an outstanding medical team with highly specialized training; all Northwest Asthma & Allergy Center (NAAC) doctors are Board Certified or Board Eligible in Allergy and Immunology. This exceptional qualification is only achieved after a 3 year residency in Pediatrics and/or Internal Medicine, followed by an additional 2-3 years studying Allergy & Immunology specifically.

  When you meet with your Northwest Asthma & Allergy Center provider, she or he will listen to your history and help determine the next steps and whether allergy testing is needed. Allergy testing can help us observe your body’s response to common allergens. With this information, your physician or healthcare provider may be able to provide you with more clarity about potential causes of your allergies — and, as importantly, what to do about them!
