North Texas Allergy Center
North Texas Allergy Center, staffed by
Dr. Joey Hamilton, Dr. Jeffrey Stewart, and Cathy Kautz, R.N.
At the North Allergy Center, we can diagnosis and treat all airborne allergies, such as pollen, ragweed, and cat dander, using the RAST testing. Unlike skin testing, RAST testing uses only one small blood sample for chemical analysis. From this sample, the RAST can accurately identify the 1gE antibodies in your blood that react to certain allergens, thereby pinpointing your specific allergies and gauging the severity of your reactions.
The RAST test is painless, safe and accurate. A single blood sample can be used for many different allergens and since the test is performed outside the body, there is no chance of an adverse patient reaction with RAST. Once the diagnosis has been made, our doctors will suggest a course of treatment such as avoidance, medication, or immunotherapy that is specifically designed to control your allergy-related problems.
