Welcome to our practice of allergy, asthma and immunology. With our large staff, appointments are usually available within a few days or a week for both established and new patients. We also offer telehealth services for those who would rather have their visit at home. Telehealth visits can be performed for all the usual problems such as sinusitis, bronchitis, asthma, allergies, etc. Although other health care providers may “dabble” in treating allergies, our physicians are all fellowship trained, board certified allergists who work exclusively treating all forms of allergic disorders.

ANNOUNCEMENT

The Allergy & Asthma Center of Stamford is pleased to welcome Cyrus Nozad, MD, who has joined our practice. Dr. Nozad earned his medical degree from Joan & Sanford I Medical College of Cornell University. He completed his Internal Medicine residency at Albert Einstein College of Medicine at Beth Israel Medical Center and his fellowship in Allergy & Immunology at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. Dr. Nozad currently serves as an Assistant Professor at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons and is board certified in Adult and Pediatric Allergy & Immunology. With this new addition to our staff, we will be able to increase our office hours to serve our patients.

Dr. Nozad is fully trained to perform testing and treatment for all allergy, asthma and immunologic conditions. This includes treatment of Allergic Rhinitis (hay fever), Atopic Dermatitis, Asthma, Bronchitis, Common Variable Immunodeficiency, Contact Dermatitis, Drug Allergy, Ear Infections, Eczema, Food Allergy, Hives, IgG Deficiency, Primary Immunodeficiencies, Insect Allergy, Latex Allergy, Nasal Polyps, Pneumonia, Rashes, Sinus infections, Steroid dependent Asthma, Urticaria and Angioedema.

The services we provide include Skin testing, Allergy blood testing, Oral challenges for food and medications, Patch testing for contact allergies, Immune testing for Immunodeficiency, Peak flow monitoring, Pulmonary Function testing and Oxygen level testing. If indicated, we will start patients on IVIG and SQIG for significant primary immunodeficiencies.

We are considered experts in providing Allergy immunotherapy with Allergy shots and the use of sublingual therapy in the form of Allergy drops. We provide prescriptions for all conventional allergy and asthma medications. Additionally, we specialize in using the new biologic therapies for allergic conditions including Xolair, Nucala, Fasenra, Tezspire and Dupixent.

We are the largest provider of allergy and asthma care in the greater Stamford area. We provide services to the surrounding towns of Greenwich, Darien, New Canaan, Wilton, Westport, Norwalk, and all of Fairfield County as well as the rest of Connecticut and Westchester County, New York. In practice since 1991, our allergists take pride in accurate diagnostic testing and expert treatment. Patient satisfaction and comfort are important to us. Our professional and caring nurses and office staff ensure that you will not be kept waiting for your appointment. Our physicians have consistently been listed as BEST DOCTORS in Connecticut and the New York metropolitan region.

In addition to being Board Certified in Allergy & Immunology, our physicians are also Board Certified in their respective fields of Internal Medicine and Pediatrics. This means that our physicians have had the same training as Primary Care doctors such as Internists and Pediatricians prior to specializing in Allergy, Asthma and Immunology. Using this knowledge we can put allergic conditions into the larger perspective of a patient’s general health. We are able to care for patients from early childhood to the elderly with a range of uncomplicated to the complex medical issues faced today such as heart disease, diabetes, pulmonary disease, and other illnesses.

We use the latest biologic medications for treating Asthma, Nasal Polyps, Eosinophilic Esophagitis and Eczema including Xolair, Nucala, Tezspire, Fasenra, and Dupixent. These medications are best given by a board certified allergist trained in the administration of these products. If you have been suffering from asthma which has not adequately responded to inhalers and have needed to resort to prednisone often (which can cause long term side effects) these agents can improve asthma symptoms significantly and reduce the need for oral steroids.
