Assessment and Treatment For Children with Food Allergies

Our Services

The Kindercare Pediatrics Allergy Team is currently offering oral immunotherapy (OIT) for children under 8 years old.

The following food allergies can be incorporated into OIT treatment: peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, sunflower seed, flaxseed, mustard, other seeds, chickpeas, peas, lentils, other legumes, milk, egg, wheat, soy. Other foods will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Please note that your initial appointment would be an information-gathering session. Our allergists need to know your child’s allergy history and medical history very well. Following the initial appointment, families interested in OIT will undergo a detailed educational program and counseling.

Please note- initial consults are covered by OHIP. However, OIT is not covered by OHIP. Our clinic will provide itemized receipts and letters to help patients achieve coverage from private insurance plans.

Not interested in OIT? That’s ok! Our physicians are happy to assess your child for other allergy-related concerns.
