Advancing food allergy care: The latest innovations and insights
About the webinar:
Are you ready to advance your approach to food allergy prevention and treatment? Join us for a webinar on the latest strategies and best practices for working with pediatric patients and their families. Led by food allergy expert Sherry Coleman Collins, this session isn’t just about staying informed– it’s about empowering you to make a real difference in your patients’ lives. Learn why you can’t rely on a skin or blood test to diagnose food allergies, how to overcome the fear of feeding allergens to infants, and the emerging science on the role of the skin and the microbiome in food allergies. Expect to leave with new knowledge, practical insights, and actionable steps to provide optimal care for your patients.
