As the largest practice in San Antonio, our mission is to improve the quality of life of our patients and their families by providing comprehensive medical service in a timely and caring manner.View AllergySA on Youtube ALLERGY DROPS As an alternative to shots, allergy drops is an effective way to treat environmental allergies. Instead of injections, patients are given drops under the tongue to help reduce allergic symptoms. * ASTHMA Asthma is a chronic disease involving the airways in the lungs. These airways, or bronchial tubes, allow air to come in and out of the lungs. If you have asthma your airways are always inflamed. * ATOPIC DERMATITIS (ECZEMA) Eczema is a chronic or recurrent inflammatory skin disease that usually begins in the first few years of life. It is often the initial indication that a child may later develop asthma and/or allergic rhinitis (hay fever). In infants, eczema usually appears as tiny bumps on the cheeks. * BIOLOGICS A biologic may be the answer for patients still having symptoms despite the use of standard controller medications. AllergySA offers several biologic therapies for the treatment of moderate to severe asthma including Xolair (omalizumab), Fasenra (benralizumab), Dupixent (dupilumab), Nucala (mepolizumab) and Cinqair (reslizumab). FOOD ALLERGIES Our team of health care professionals conducts research on immunologic diseases in an effort to provide advanced care for our patients. Being specialists in this field of medicine, our focus is allergies, asthma and the ways the body protects itself from infections and diseases. * HIVES / SWELLING Your immune system overreacts to a particular protein found in that food. Symptoms can occur when coming in contact with just a tiny amount of the food. * INSECT VENOM ALLERGIES Hives (urticaria), involve red, itchy, swollen areas of the skin that range in size and appear anywhere on the body. They can appear suddenly, and may be the result of an allergic reaction. Some people have chronic urticaria that occurs almost daily for months or, in some cases, years. * PET ALLERGIES If you are insect-allergic, after the first sting, your body produces antibodies called Immunoglobulin E (IgE). If stung again by the same kind of insect, the venom interacts with this specific IgE antibody, triggering the release of substances that cause an allergic reaction. * OUR PROVIDERSJoseph Diaz, M.D.Medical DirectorLukena Karkhanis, M.D.Diplomate, American Board of Allergy ImmunologyRaul Villarreal, M.D.Board Eligible, American Board of Allergy Immunology | Board Certified, American Board of Internal MedicineMarie Celeste Loera, FNP-BCNurse Practitioner, Board-CertifiedErica Gomez, FNP-CNurse Practitioner, CertifiedAlisha Diaz, PA-CPhysician Assistant, CertifiedALLERGYSA BLOGAllergies, English, Health First Patient Reaches Maintenance Phase of Palforzia® New FDA Approved Peanut Allergy TreatmentCongratulations to Claire for being our first peanut allergy patient to reach the maintenance phase of Palforzia®.Palforzia® is the first and only standardized oral immunotherapy treatment approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration…November 9, 2020 https://secureservercdn.net/166.62.107.20/4xz.24f.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/claire-Copy.jpg?time=1605423766 2495 2494 https://secureservercdn.net/166.62.107.20/4xz.24f.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/allerygysa-logo-1.png Yolanda Haymon2020-11-09 16:34:422020-11-09 16:48:58First Patient Reaches Maintenance Phase of Palforzia® New FDA Approved Peanut Allergy TreatmentEnglish, Health, News COVID-19 creates new dilemma for parents with asthmatic childrenAllergySA's Medical Director, Dr. Joseph Diaz, was recently interviewed about how COVID-19 creates a dilemma for parents when your child has been diagnosed with asthma.
