Allergy

There's a much easier way to test for and treat allergies-and you can find it at Fox.

Our advanced allergy testing requires only one tube of a patient’s blood. This saves patients from the usual process of 30-40 needle sticks—a relief for children and adults who are afraid of needles. From the blood sample comes an individualized serum that we use to desensitize the patient to his or her allergens. This same process can also help treat asthma and conditions such as nasal polyps and sinusitis.

Behind this treatment is considerable expertise. The head of allergy and otolaryngology at Fox, Dr. Paul Sweet, is a member of the American Academy of Otolaryngolic Allergy. Through his practice at Ear, Nose and Throat Associates of Oneonta, he and his associates provide diagnosis and treatment of allergies, asthma and similar conditions.
