    Anjali started oral immunotherapy when she was one year old

    Anjali’s mom, Rini: We have been so thrilled to have the opportunity to start OIT for our daughter at such a young age and in such a nurturing, wonderful environment. As a physician, and a mom, I feel so confident and grateful for the individualized care she is receiving.

    At 3 years old, Zakaria started oral immunotherapy

    Zakaria’s mom, Fatima: OIT is giving him a chance to actually live a life where he can go on an airplane and not worry if they’re serving peanuts, or if he goes to a friend’s house and we don’t worry if there are nuts around. We would do anything to give him a life where he can just be free. I’m so grateful Latitude is giving us that opportunity.

    David is off to college safely

    David: It’s so much nicer to know that I have this protection. I thought appointments would be very time-consuming but it’s been very manageable and the Latitude team has been great. Appointments are a lot of fun, and it’s a little family which is nice. It’s a very relaxed place — it’s a doctor’s office, but it’s not a high stress doctor’s office.”

Latitude has been so great! I have been seeing them for what I thought was a shellfish allergy. I had been to another allergist years ago and was only told that yes I am allergic to shellfish. With Latitude, I have not only challenged but passed two oral food challenges for lobster and crab! Without Latitude, I would still be avoiding these foods and now, I can eat them! I have also had my son come in for food allergy testing as he has newly diagnosed asthma and we were able to get some great clarification for him as well. So big thank you to Latitude for helping me this far and I can’t wait to challenge shrimp and continue my journey to food freedom.

We absolutely LOVE Dr. Treyster, as well as Shanelle and the rest of the nurses at Latitude in Westchester. I never thought I’d see the day where my 3 year old BEGS to go to the doctor. Dr. Treyster is knowledgeable and flexible. She really listened to all of my concerns in order create the right plan for our family. She is an allergy mom herself and totally understands how an allergy can dictate our lives. Their office is stocked with toys and books and they make the experience SO pleasurable. I cannot recommend this practice enough!

One of the best medical offices I’ve ever been to, and especially as the parent of a young child with allergies. All of the staff were welcoming and friendly, and there was so much consideration taken into what children need to feel comfortable and occupied during long appointments (toys, snacks, coloring, stickers, etc) The medical staff are very knowledgeable, and I felt that I had learned a lot in just one appointment. All testing is done on sight, so convenient. Cannot recommend enough!
