Welcome Amanda!

Ahh ... allergies. I know about those....

THe last allergist I saw was Kevin Noon, ARNP, with Allergy and Asthmas care (or some such name.) Dr. Pravda is the owner.
He's not there anymore -- Kevin, that is, and I haven't had to go back in a while since really no point. I've been either pregnant or breastfeeding since the last time I was there and can't do the shots series w/ either of those....

So...I will be interested, too, to hear any recommendations from other moms about pediatric allergists in the area. I know some moms who have to take kids to Shands in Gainesville for pediatric specialty areas. I wonder if allergies would be one of those?

(And my brother missed the K cut off by 1 date. I remember my mom's frustration very well that year!)
