Update 6-19-18 Hi Everyone, it's Dr Feigenbaum. WE ARE LIMITING our new patients for the summer. Other than patients with chronic dermatitis who need patch testing and patients with asthma, we're limiting our new patients for now and You could try my great colleagues at Scripps Clinic Allergy Carmel Valley. My wonderful assistants have all just moved on to med school and I'm on my own right now in the office. I apologize if you've been waiting for a call back or email reply. I should be able to catch up today,
I also just had an very exciting research finding which may allow the diagnosis and easy treatment for a condition not currently considered treatable. As you can understand, I've been spending a lot of time on that. I'm going to focus on that and vacation over the summer. I'll continue to be available for current patients.
Have a great summer. Thanks! Please communicate over patient portal or email. My cell phone is 858 215 2201 if you need me urgently.

We wish we could help, but Dr. Feigenbaum does not have expertise with:
With children 6 and over, we can generally perform allergy testing for foods and environmental/airborne allergens. Pulmonary function testing (for asthma and chronic cough) also usually works well.
In our practice, we generally avoid starting allergy shots in children. We focus on allergen avoidance and if medications seem necessary, using an (FDA-approved for kids) medication at the lowest effective dose and for the least amount of time.
