Our Approach to Pediatric Allergy Testing
At TexasAllergyMD we specialize in pediatric allergy testing, providing a safe and nurturing environment for our younger patients. Our testing services include skin prick testing, blood testing, patch testing and the oral food challenge.
Many years of training and experience enable us to create a welcoming space where children feel comfortable discussing their allergy issues. While all patients, both adults and children, will receive the same high-quality testing services, pediatric allergy care can require a lighter touch. Our skin prick test devices provide an excellent example, as they are decorated to resemble caterpillars, transforming a medical procedure into a lighthearted interaction.
Why Choose Our Pediatric Allergy Testing Services
Dr. Mireku is a board-certified medical doctor with training in pediatrics and specialization in allergy/immunology (pediatrics and adults). This extensive background in pediatrics helps Dr. Mireku skillfully gather essential information from children, contributing significantly to an accurate diagnosis. In turn, precise pediatric allergy test results help in developing comprehensive allergy treatments.
Should a child test positive for an allergy, we provide several pediatric allergy management solutions. Treatments include oral immunotherapy, environmental and food sublingual immunotherapy to build allergen tolerance in toddlers, school-age children and teenagers. We also offer comprehensive allergy care services to ensure the safety of allergic children in school, at camp and on sports teams.
Over the last decade, Dr Mireku has been nominated several times by the DFW Child Magazine as a DFW Mom-Approved Allergist.
