Immunology

Allergy symptoms can often be controlled by medication. However, medication does not alter the body’s abnormal response to allergens and symptoms will likely return upon discontinuation of use. Allergen Immunotherapy (allergy injection treatment) is designed to redirect the immune system so that the body does not react abnormally to allergens in the environment. The ultimate goal is to eliminate or reduce sensitivity, thus preventing allergy symptoms.

Our expert staff at Victoria Allergy and Asthma Clinic, led by Dr. Harvey and Dr. Rao, will perform the necessary testing to determine whether you have environmental allergies and advise you whether allergy injections are the right treatment option for you.
