Show Notes
Nurse Practitioner Brittany Harper and host Liz Edwards walk us through what to expect from a skin test!
From preparations before the test to the therapy after, Brittany and Liz cover all the details. Learn what happens at each step, how many allergens are tested for different age groups, how long the initial scratch test takes (usually only 60 seconds!), and what all of this tells our providers.
As Brittany says, "Patients love the outcome of allergy shots!" If you've ever wondered what those first steps to starting allergy shots are, this podcast's for you!
