Walk-In Hours for Allergy Shots

• Mondays & Wednesdays: 8:15 AM - 5:00 PM

• Fridays: 8:15 AM - 4:00 PM

Please keep in mind these safety guidelines: 

• Please wait 30 minutes after all allergy shots.
• Be sure to notify staff if you experienced any problems with your most recent allergy shot, such as swelling, bothersome itching, or any problems with breathing or lightheadedness. This may require a dose adjustment.
• If you are have been asked to do so, please carry your epinephrine injection device and/or albuterol inhaler to and from allergy shot visits. Generally, anyone with asthma, as well as certain other higher risk patients, should do this. 
• If you are experiencing increased asthma symptoms, then please hold off on your allergy shot or discuss with staff first

Why can't I do allergy shots at home?

Allergy shots should always be given in a supervised medical setting. If you live out of town or our clinic is not a convenient location, then we are happy to work with you and your primary care provider to try to arrange your allergy shot injections at your primary care clinic instead. 

Although giving an allergy shot is fairly straightforward, allergy shots can cause a systemic allergic reaction (i.e., anaphylaxis) and a properly equipped medical team is important in those instances.

Home allergy shots are recommended against by all major allergy societies in the world, including the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI), the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (AAAAI), the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI), the Canadian Society of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (CSACI), the Chinese Guidelines on Allergen Immunotherapy, the Australian Society of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (ASACI), as well as the World Allergy Organization (WAO).
