As a board certified internal medicine physician and physician nutrition specialist, Dr. Hermann has tested hundreds of people for food sensitivities. What she has found is that when her patients eliminate the foods that they are sensitive to from their diet, they feel much better. When we eat foods that we are allergic to, we have more inflammation in our bodies. By eliminating these foods, we have less aches and pains, less sinus congestion, less constipation, less diarrhea, less headache, less skin irritation and acne and overall more energy.

If you think you might have food allergies or sensitivities, we can help you. We offer two ways to find out whether you have a food allergy or sensitivity. The first way is labwork to check for celiac disease and food sensitivities. Dr. Hermann uses ALCAT, www.alcat.com, and Genova labs, www.genovadiagnostics.com, for this type of testing. Often, insurance will cover a portion or all of the testing. For those who do not have insurance and cannot afford bloodwork testing, the second way diagnose food allergies is to do an elimination or detoxification diet. Dr. Hermann prescribes the diet and then follows your symptoms to make a diagnosis.

We do bill insurance for medical visits and have reasonable rates for those who do not have coverage.
