Food Allergies: Understanding and Managing Reactions
Kansas City’s Food Allergy Specialist for Children & Adults
Living with a food allergy can be overwhelming—every meal, label, or social event comes with uncertainty. At KC Allergy & Asthma, we help patients get clarity, confidence, and control.
Whether you're navigating a suspected reaction or managing a known allergy, we offer expert diagnosis and long-term solutions that go far beyond basic avoidance.
Why Choose KC Allergy & Asthma for Food Allergy Care?
- Specialized in Identifying True Food Allergies
Many people are misdiagnosed or confused by food sensitivities versus actual allergies. Our board-certified allergy specialist uses precise methods to identify real, immune-based food allergies.
- In-Depth Testing and Evaluation
We offer skin prick testing, blood testing (IgE), and oral food challenges to determine which foods are truly unsafe—and which may be tolerated safely.
- Customized Allergy Management Plans
Get more than just a diagnosis. We build personalized plans that include emergency preparedness, label reading strategies, cross-contamination prevention, and nutritional guidance.
- Expertise in Pediatric Food Allergies
We’re trusted by parents across Kansas City for the accurate diagnosis and safe care of infants and children with milk, egg, peanut, tree nut, and other allergies.
- Support for Complex or Unusual Cases
Our clinic sees patients with multiple allergies, history of anaphylaxis, delayed reactions, and food-dependent exercise-induced symptoms. We’re prepared for complex cases that require expert attention.
- Desensitization & Tolerance Testing Options
For select patients, we offer supervised food challenges and oral immunotherapy referrals when appropriate, helping expand safe food options over time.
