Let Dr. Ama Alexis and her Staff Treat your Child’s Allergies in the Comfort of Her NYC Offices
Dr. Ama Alexis, a Board Certified Allergist ⁄ Immunologist, diagnoses and treats pediatric allergies. These allergies, if untreated, may lead to future health complications and a lower quality of life for your children.
We use only the latest medical equipment and technology, so your children will feel calm and comfortable during their visit. Our comprehensive allergy testing process fascinates many kids, and it empowers and fascinates children to learn how each individual body functions and how each person responds to their surroundings.
Our board certified allergists, physician assistant, and registered nurses are specially trained in the treatment of allergic conditions. As a first step towards diagnosing allergies, an extensive history and physical would be performed in our office by one of our board certified allergists or physician assistants. If your child’s history indicates possible allergic problems, we would suggest allergy skin and/or blood testing. Allergy skin testing can be initiated on your first visit to our office.
Allergies can also induce asthma. Therefore, if this is indicated in your child’s history and physical, we would suggest allergy testing, as well as pulmonary function testing (lung capacity test) to establish the level of your child’s asthma.
We are specially trained in evaluating all aspects of the immune system. Children experiencing recurrent ear infections, sinusitis, bronchitis, or pneumonia may have an underlying deficiency within their immune system. By undergoing a complete immunologic evaluation, supportive and treatment measures can be instituted that help minimize infections and shorten the recovery period.
Our office accepts most health insurance plans. The staff will assist you with any necessary paperwork and other requirements relative to your family’s insurance provider.
Whether your child’s symptoms are sneezing, coughing, or scratching, we can help.
