Best Board-Certified Immunology, Allergy & Asthma Doctors in Philadelphia Center City

Beyond the typical training and licensing that all US doctors receive, board-certification assures the public and medical community that the physician has completed an additional accredited educational program and passed evaluations to provide patients with high-quality care in allergy and immunology. This includes a multi-year fellowship specializing in allergy and immunology, passing certification examinations, and maintaining certification with continuing education. The allergy and immunology training prepares allergy and asthma doctors to identify and treat immune system disorders that can cause allergies, asthma, chronic lung disease, skin diseases, and immune deficiencies. From the extensive medical training and specialization, allergists are best able to detect and treat a patient’s allergens and discern which other conditions can masquerade as allergies.

Our Philadelphia patients typically meet with the following allergy and asthma specialists:

• Marc F. Goldstein, MD, FAAAAI, FACP, FCCP (Philly “Top Doc”)
• Nancy D. Gordon, MD (Philly “Top Doc”)
• Patricia Rexer, CRNP

Allergy Counts in Center City Philly: Pollen, Mold & Ragweed Counts

The Asthma Center is Philadelphia’s only source for daily pollen, mold, and ragweed counts. We operate our pollen monitoring station on the rooftop of our location here in Center City Philadelphia, where we see allergy patients.

During the pollen season, The Asthma Center team collects, analyzes, and publishes the region’s official daily pollen count. We often share our research with local and national media (check out our allergists’ latest coverage in the news here), and use our expertise about local pollen conditions to understand the air you breathe so we can treat our patients better, especially those suffering from seasonal allergies.

During the spring, summer, and fall, we post daily pollen counts to our website and to our pollen count subscribers via email. Feel free to signup with your email address at the form at the bottom of this page.
