The Modena Health Long Beach Team
The Long Beach team provides allergy, asthma, immunology, and pediatric respiratory evaluation for patients of different ages. Individual response and follow-up needs vary.
The Long Beach care team emphasizes clear explanations, shared decisions, and follow-up. Provider profiles document individual roles and backgrounds; a consultation is needed to determine which evaluation or management option fits a patient’s needs.
The Food Allergy Center at Modena Health
Our OIT protocols take a personalized approach to immune system retraining, specifically designed to meet each patient's unique needs.
Food allergy immunotherapy uses measured allergen doses under a clinician-directed protocol. Eligibility, dosing, risks, treatment goals, and ongoing safety requirements differ by patient. It is not a cure, and reactions can occur during treatment.
At Modena Health, we're dedicated to delivering compassionate, top-notch care that supports your journey to a vibrant and fulfilling life.

"When should I see an allergist?"
We're here for you.
Before making major lifestyle changes because of suspected allergy, an allergist can review symptoms and exposures and decide whether targeted testing is appropriate. Results have limitations and must be interpreted with the clinical history.
At-home food sensitivity tests should not be used alone to diagnose food allergy or guide major dietary restrictions. An allergist can review the reaction history, select targeted testing when appropriate, and discuss avoidance, prescribed epinephrine, and an emergency action plan.
Persistent sinus or suspected allergy symptoms can have several causes. A clinician can review symptom patterns, prior treatment, examination findings, and appropriate testing before recommending medical care, monitoring, or referral.
Food-allergy preparedness includes knowing the diagnosed allergens, reading labels, following the written emergency plan, and keeping prescribed epinephrine accessible. Suspected anaphylaxis requires immediate action according to that plan and a call to 911.

Coordinate the Pieces of Your Care
What should a Long Beach allergy visit accomplish?
A productive visit should define the current concern, review what has already been tried, and end with a clear next step. That may mean confirming which exposures merit testing, checking asthma control and inhaler technique, updating an emergency plan, reviewing a chronic skin or sinus problem, or deciding that another specialty should participate. Not every patient needs testing at the first appointment.
Bring all inhalers and spacers to the Woodruff Avenue office if breathing symptoms are part of the visit. For a possible food or medication reaction, write down the exact product, amount or dose, timing, symptoms, and treatment. Ask before arrival whether the planned appointment includes a procedure, test, or observation period and whether normal medicines should be continued.
This information supports an efficient visit but does not replace the clinician’s individual assessment.
Planning Questions
Long Beach Office FAQ
Bring every inhaler and spacer currently used, the written action plan if one exists, a medication list, and any recent lung-function or emergency-care records. The clinician can then review both the devices and the symptom pattern.
The appointment confirmation should identify whether the visit is a consultation, test, treatment follow-up, or observed procedure. Call 562-496-4749 before changing medicines or arranging transportation around a longer visit.
