Allergy Skin Testing

Skin testing identifies which allergens actually provoke a reaction, replacing guesswork about what to avoid with a specific list.

How it works

  • Small skin pricks — tiny amounts of common allergens applied to the surface of the skin.
  • Results in about twenty minutes — reactions are measured during the same visit.
  • A plan you leave with — avoidance strategies, medication, or immunotherapy based on what reacted.

Environmental, food, and medication allergens can be tested. Our allergy providers review the results with you before you leave the office.
