What is the Most Accurate Way to Test for Food Allergies?
The oral food challenge is the diagnostic reference standard, but it is not the only useful test. Learn how clinical history, skin testing, IgE, BAT, and supervised oral food challenges work together to provide a more accurate food allergy evaluation at NYFA.
What Does a Food Allergist Do?
A food allergist does more than order tests. They connect your reaction history with targeted testing, help confirm which foods are truly unsafe, create a practical emergency and avoidance plan, and discuss treatment options such as OIT or SLIT when appropriate. Learn how Dr. Atul Shah and NYFA approach each step.
