Patient Testimonials

★★★★★

"THEY TRULY CARE ABOUT MY HEALTH AND WELL-BEING!"

“Went in for a consultation for my children's eczema. Dr. Kim was very patient, answered all of our questions and concerns, and made it comfortable for us to do so. We learned new information regarding their eczema (which is saying a lot because I've spent so much time researching it myself), and advice that seems to be working to finally heal their skin. We were able to get the skin test done the same day, and blood work ordered for the follow up. The nurse who did the skin test was fast and efficient. There were no tears involved, only discomfort of course where hives developed. The front desk staff were also friendly, quick to address and assist me when I walked in, and sweet to let my children pick out a giveaway toy after the visit. Plenty of parking on site.”

“All of staff are awesome!! They always have cold water bottles or cans for us to enjoy. We also always have the choice of making hot coffee or hot tea. Kids and younger patients have the opportunity of getting a reward for coming to their appointment. They have an app that we can keep track of everything that has been happening for the different treatments. They are very efficient with everything that they provide. I definitely recommend coming here to everyone.”

- C.M.

“I have been a patient here for a couple of years now. I'm seen once a month to receive my allergy shots. The entire staffing has always been and continues to be very welcoming and makes me feel like they truly care about my health and well-being.”

- B.C.

“I love this place and love the staff. Every time I get my allergy shot they make me feel at home. They all show concern for my health and are very knowledgeable.”

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.

"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.

What should I bring to the appointment?

  • all inhalers, spacers, and current action plans
  • reaction details, labels, photographs, and emergency records
  • prior allergy testing and a current medication list

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.

Appointments and insurance

Calling or submitting an online request does not create a confirmed appointment. The office can verify scheduling, referral or authorization requirements, current insurance participation, preparation instructions, and whether a specific service is provided at this location. Benefits and patient responsibility vary by plan and are determined by the insurer; scheduling does not guarantee coverage.

Emergency symptoms cannot wait for an office reply

Call 911 for severe trouble breathing, blue or gray lips, throat or tongue swelling, fainting, confusion, rapidly worsening symptoms, or suspected anaphylaxis. Follow the patient’s prescribed emergency action plan and use prescribed epinephrine when directed. Do not wait for a clinic callback during a medical emergency.
