Food Allergist for Hoboken, NJ Patients

NY Food Allergy & Wellness provides comprehensive food allergy evaluation and treatment for patients who travel from Hoboken, NJ to our Upper East Side Manhattan office. We offer needle free skin testing, IgE blood testing, Basophil Activation Testing (BAT), and supervised Oral Food Challenges (OFC) for children, teens, and adults.

After testing, we design an individualized plan through our FATE™ Program. This may include safety planning, school or workplace guidance, and when appropriate, treatment options such as SLIT or OIT to help increase protection from accidental exposures and support a more confident daily routine.

Yes. Our Upper East Side location is the office where Basophil Activation Testing (BAT) is performed. BAT is an advanced laboratory test that helps clarify how reactive a patient may be to certain foods and can provide additional information beyond standard skin or blood testing.

Many families from Hoboken choose NYFA specifically because BAT is available here. The results help guide decisions about Oral Food Challenges, long term treatment plans, and everyday risk, giving patients and families more confidence in the path forward.

Absolutely. NYFA cares for patients of all ages who travel from Hoboken for food allergy expertise. We support young children who need safe school and daycare plans, teens learning to manage their allergies more independently, and adults navigating food allergies at work, in relationships, and while traveling.

Each age group receives tailored guidance, including emergency preparedness, dining out strategies, and when appropriate, access to desensitization options through the FATE™ Program to help reduce anxiety and increase day to day confidence.

Yes. Hoboken patients can complete SLIT or OIT at our Upper East Side Manhattan office as part of the FATE™ Program. These therapies are carefully structured to introduce very small, controlled amounts of an allergen with close medical supervision.

We work with each family or adult patient to build dosing schedules, follow up visits, and monitoring plans that fit the realities of traveling from Hoboken, commuting options, and other daily responsibilities.

Many Hoboken families and adults choose NY Food Allergy & Wellness because they want advanced diagnostic tools, a structured treatment path, and a team with deep experience in food allergy care. Dr. Shah has treated more than 15,000 patients over the past 20 years and is known for a detailed, supportive approach.

Patients often tell us they value the clarity that BAT and OFC can provide, the flexibility of options within the FATE™ Program, and the way our team focuses on real life goals such as safer school experiences, less stressful dining out, and more reliable protection during travel and activities.

Hoboken patients can schedule a consultation by calling our Upper East Side office or completing the New Patient Form on our website. Once we review your information, a member of our team will contact you to discuss next steps and help plan your first visit.

When medically appropriate, we often combine the initial consultation with testing during the same trip to Manhattan. Our goal is to make visits as efficient and convenient as possible for families and adults traveling from Hoboken.
