Comprehensive allergy and asthma assessment
Allergy & Asthma Physicians of Rhode Island
We offer a range of onsite services for the testing and treatment for allergies and asthma. Your initial visit may take some time, as we work to find the root cause of your symptoms — but we believe that comprehensive allergy and asthma assessment is an essential step in obtaining an accurate diagnosis and an effective treatment for allergies and asthma.
At your initial consultation, we perform a physical exam and a thorough evaluation based on your symptoms. This detailed assessment includes your medical history: you will be asked about your general health, whether members of your family have asthma or allergies. We will also ask about your symptoms — how often they occur and what seems to bring them on. Finally, we will ask about your environment and activities, including work, home, and eating habits.
After your initial consultation, you will be scheduled for the appropriate testing procedures.
