From the first consultation to long-term trigger reduction, here's what a pediatric allergy work-up at KID'S AARC Allergy Asthma Clinic looks like.
A structured allergy-focused history covering symptom pattern, timing, home environment, family history and suspected triggers — the essential first step before any test.
A quick, well-tolerated panel test on the skin that identifies which specific allergens — dust mite, pollen, mold, pet dander, foods — your child actually reacts to.
Test results are read alongside the clinical history, since a positive test alone doesn't always mean clinical allergy — correlation with symptoms matters.
Individualised management for asthma, allergic rhinitis, eczema, food allergy, urticaria and more — built around confirmed triggers.
For selected children with confirmed, clinically relevant dust mite or pollen allergy and inadequate control on medicines alone, AIT can reduce underlying sensitivity over time.
SCIT vs SLIT explained →Objective lung function testing to assess and track asthma control in children old enough to perform the breathing manoeuvre (roughly 5–6+ years).
How it works →A child-friendly lung function test using normal breathing — suitable for younger children not yet able to perform spirometry.
How it works →Written, personalised plans for children at risk of severe reactions or anaphylaxis, with guidance for family, caregivers and school.
Only 2.3% of children with confirmed dust-mite allergy in one clinical dataset had actually started immunotherapy — often because the trigger was never formally confirmed in the first place. Objective testing is what turns a suspected trigger into an actionable treatment plan.
Bring your child's symptom history — we'll help you turn it into a confirmed diagnosis and a plan.
