Early and accurate diagnosis is essential to prevent unexpected allergic reactions and to develop a safe, effective management plan.
Diagnosis typically involves a combination of:
Detailed medical history and symptom review
Supervised oral food challenges when necessary
Our clinicians utilize advanced diagnostic tools for food allergies and provide a thorough assessment to ensure you receive clear answers and guidance.
For immediate symptom management, our specialists offer evidence-based medications, such as antihistamines, epinephrine auto-injectors for emergency situations, and other supportive therapies.
Our experienced team provides detailed counseling on egg-free diets, label reading, and cross-contamination prevention. We also offer ongoing nutrition support to ensure your diet remains balanced and fulfilling while avoiding eggs.
Long-term success depends on ongoing support. We offer regular follow-up appointments, telehealth options, and education to help you navigate any challenges confidently.

Our board-certified allergists closely monitor OIT to ensure safety throughout the process. Patients undergoing OIT are carefully evaluated and supported to minimize risk and improve long-term outcomes.
Adopting an egg-free diet can be daunting, but our experts provide practical tips, recipes, and resources to ease the transition. We help you identify hidden egg sources and find nutritious alternatives. Patient education is central in our treatment and management of egg allergy.

First and foremost let me start by saying that these people did one hell of a job figuring out my sinus problems. When I first arrived there, I explained what was going on with me having excessive inflammation in the sinus…after they tested me, I found out that I was being exposed to dust mites which gave me a strong reaction. I followed the doctors guides lines in terms of cleaning my room and ever since, my sinus inflammation went away for good and now I have a healthy sinus. Thank you for everything.
My 10 year old son also has allergies and asthma and the staff makes sure that he feels well taken care of and comfortable, despite his having Autism and ADHD. He actually looks forward to going there with me, whether it be for my allergy shots or even when he needed allergy skin testing. When you’re a patient at the Allergy and Asthma clinic, you are treated as if you are the only patient they have, even when the waiting room is full. Dr. Engler has hired truly excellent staff, from the front desk people to the nurses and medical assistants. If you have allergies and/or asthma and you live on the Peninsula or even in the city, I highly recommend that you visit the Allergy and Asthma Clinic. They are truly amazing and will make you feel so much better.
