Patient Testimonials
★★★★★
“THIS IS THE BEST CLINIC IN THE SOUTHBAY!”
The Food Allergy Center at Modena Allergy + Asthma
Food allergy management may include allergen avoidance, label reading, an emergency action plan, and prescribed epinephrine when indicated. For selected patients, a clinician may discuss oral immunotherapy (OIT), which uses medically supervised exposure to increase the amount of allergen tolerated during treatment. OIT carries risks, requires ongoing dosing and follow-up, and is not a cure.
Food allergy treatment options differ in dosing, evidence, suitability, and risk. Before recommending OIT or another approach, a clinician reviews the diagnosis, reaction history, goals, comorbid conditions, and ability to follow the treatment plan. A supervised food challenge may be recommended when the diagnosis or current level of reactivity needs clarification.

Is It Time To Visit An Allergist About Your Concerns?
Allergy, respiratory, skin, and immune-related symptoms can have several causes. An allergist can review the timing, exposures, prior care, and examination findings before choosing targeted testing. Results require clinical interpretation and may not explain every symptom.
Nasal congestion can result from several conditions, including rhinitis, chronic sinus disease, or nasal polyps. Management may include medicines, biologic therapy for selected patients, procedural care, or referral after the diagnosis, severity, prior treatment, benefits, and risks are reviewed.

For some patients with asthma that remains uncontrolled, a clinician may discuss biologic medicines after reviewing diagnosis, severity, prior treatment, biomarkers when indicated, potential benefits, risks, and insurance requirements.
Food allergy evaluation may include a detailed reaction history, targeted testing, and a supervised food challenge when indicated. Management can include avoidance guidance, prescribed epinephrine, an emergency action plan, and a discussion of immunotherapy for eligible patients. Persistent sinus or respiratory symptoms also require an individual assessment before treatment is selected.
If you're experiencing recurring or severe infections, an allergist can also assess whether there's an underlying issue with your immune system.
In all of these scenarios and more, it's crucial to understand that the ideal time to consult an allergist is sooner rather than later. Don't endure unnecessary costs and suffering—schedule a consultation at Modena Allergy + Asthma, a team specializing in allergy and asthma care, right here in Torrance.
Before spending any money on at-home food sensitivity tests, or before drastically eliminating the foods you love, come see an allergist to better understand how best to interpret these results, and how and when you should make dietary changes. Also, come to an allergist to help re-introduce foods back into your diet after avoiding them.

Start with the decision that needs to be made now: confirm a diagnosis, assess control, review treatment, clarify a suspected trigger, or decide what additional testing is warranted. For children, include birth and growth history, hospitalizations, sleep and exercise symptoms, and prior imaging or lung tests. For adults, include work, home, medication, and exposure patterns relevant to the concern.
Patients visiting the Telo Avenue office may have records from allergy, pulmonology, primary care, emergency care, or another specialist. Bring the most recent reports and a short chronology instead of relying on memory alone. The office can confirm whether the visit is with the appropriate clinician and whether testing or procedures are scheduled for the same day.
This information supports an efficient visit but does not replace the clinician’s individual assessment.
Planning Questions
Bring birth and growth history when relevant, hospital and emergency records, recent imaging or lung tests, school action plans, all inhalers and spacers, and notes about sleep, exercise, infections, and treatment response.
Do not assume it will. The first visit may focus on consultation and record review, while testing or procedures may require specific preparation, authorization, timing, or a separate appointment.
Scheduling made easy for your experience.
