Pediatric Allergy

For referring physicians
Child blowing his nose

The UF Health Pediatric Allergy program provides a broad range of clinical and diagnostic services to infants, children, and adolescents, as well as some adults with acute and chronic allergic disorders. Our board-certified pediatric allergists and immunologists provide comprehensive services for diagnosing and treating children’s allergies.

We always collaborate closely with primary care physicians after your child’s initial work up to provide the very best care for the allergy symptoms, allergic reactions, and other related conditions affecting their lives.

Our staff takes pride in treating your child as a whole person, seeking a holistic understanding of their health, rather than only managing their allergy symptoms. We educate our patients and their families regarding a child’s allergic reactions, giving them the tools they need to live better, fuller lives.
