Other Conditions We Treat
At GP Allergy, Asthma & Dermatology, we go beyond common allergy and asthma care. Our clinic is equipped to evaluate and manage a variety of complex conditions that can impact your quality of life if left untreated. Here are some of the additional conditions we specialize in:
Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE)
- Symptoms: Trouble swallowing (dysphagia), food feeling stuck after swallowing
- Treatments: Swallowed corticosteroids, tailored food elimination therapy, and biologics like Dupixent®
Eosinophilic Esophagitis is a chronic allergic condition where inflammation builds in the esophagus due to elevated eosinophils. As a trusted EOE specialist, Dr. Patel works closely with patients to identify food triggers and create a management plan that addresses symptoms and prevents long-term complications. Through allergy testing, dietary counseling, and targeted treatment, we help our patients take control of their condition.
Nasal Polyps
- Symptoms: Nasal congestion, reduced sense of smell, post-nasal drip, facial pressure
Nasal polyps are soft, noncancerous growths that form in the nasal passages or sinuses due to chronic inflammation. Though painless, they can lead to significant discomfort by blocking airflow and affecting your sense of smell and breathing.
Our team specializes in treating nasal polyps with a range of medical options tailored to each patient. Depending on the severity, treatments may include nasal sprays, oral steroids, or biologics designed to shrink or control the growth of nasal polyps. In cases where medication isn’t effective, minor surgical options can help clear the nasal passages and improve breathing.
If you’re struggling with persistent nasal blockage or loss of smell, it could be due to nasal polyps. Early diagnosis and proper treatment can make a significant difference in your daily comfort and breathing quality.
Hereditary Angioedema (HAE)
- Symptoms: Swelling in the abdomen, lips, hands, and feet
Hereditary Angioedema is a rare disorder, but we’ve developed strong experience in helping patients manage it effectively. These sudden swelling episodes can be unpredictable and uncomfortable, but with the latest therapies—including on-demand and preventive injectable medications—our patients are able to live with more confidence and control.
Common Variable Immunodeficiency (CVID)
- Symptoms: Frequent infections, slow recovery from illness
When your immune system doesn’t make enough antibodies, it becomes harder to fight off bacteria and viruses. That’s where CVID comes in. This condition often presents as recurring sinus or lung infections. We help patients reduce infections and improve immune protection through regular immunoglobulin therapy and routine follow-up care.
If you’re experiencing chronic nasal congestion, frequent sinus issues, or unexplained swallowing problems, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Whether it’s an overlooked nasal polyps, or the need for a dedicated EOE specialist, our clinic offers full-spectrum care with a focus on lasting relief and patient-first treatment.
