What to expect when you visit the clinic

The Allergy Clinic of San Marcos strives to render personalised, comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of for patients suffering from allergic disorders.

Consultation
Your doctor can get some insight into your allergies based on your family and personal medical records, and by asking plenty of questions to find out what potential allergens with which you may have come into contact. Any records from previous tests or testing should be requested before your first visit. Download the authorization form using the link below, or call the office so we may assist you in this procedure.

Diagnosis
Based on the result of your interview and our experience diagnosing allergies in the Central Texas area, we will schedule special tests for the suspected allergens in your individual case.

Treatment
The first step of allergy management is to remove it from the affected person’s environment. If avoidance measures cannot be implemented, you may need to use preventer and reliever medication. If necessary, desensitisation injections are used to induce allergen tolerance and reduce the intensity of the allergic reaction.

Followup
We will be available to you whenever you have medical questions or medical needs. One specific physician, Dr. Cobb, will be your doctor, however there will be times when he is unavailable. In this case, others in the practice may occasionally take care of you when you are ill.

We never double-book appointments,
so patients DO NOT WAIT
in our lobby.
