On this episode of Food Allergy Talk, I welcome our special guest, Dr. Alan Khadavi, board certified allergy and immunologist out of Los Angeles, California.
Dr. Khadavi is an experienced allergist assisting both adult and pediatric patients who suffer from chronic allergies, asthma, and other respiratory conditions.
Dr. Khadavi recently enjoyed the privilege of being named a Rising Star in the Los Angeles edition of Super Doctors in the field of Allergy and Immunology. He was also named Most Compassionate Doctor by the Patient Choice Awards in 2013 and 2014. In 2013, 2014 ,2015, 2019, 2020 and 2021, he was named to Castle Connolly’s list of Top Doctors. He was given the Vitals Patients’ Choice Award for physicians who provide excellent care and the On Time doctor award as well. Los Angeles Magazine recently named him a “Top Doc” for its 2019-2021 editions.
In this episode I sit down to chat with Dr. Khadavi about:
- Signs and symptoms of food allergy
