Food Allergy
Conditions we treat
We offer diagnostic and treatment options for common and complex conditions regarding food allergies. We are highly experienced in the diagnosis and treatment of immunoglobulin E-mediated (IgE-mediated) food allergies and acute reactions to milk, eggs, peanuts, wheat, soy, tree nuts, fish, shellfish and other foods. As such, we also cover IgE-associated diseases such as eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), gastroenteritis, atopic dermatitis and other food antigen-associated diseases such as food protein-induced enterocolitis.
Dr. Leung is trained in both Gastroenterology and Allergy through formal specialized fellowship training. He is board certified for Gastroenterology and Allergy/Immunology. Given the diagnosis of these complex disorders, we believe clinical history is the most important component of the evaluation.
