· Food allergies (4%-6%)
Additionally, many children are allergic to insect stings, certain medications, or may present symptoms of eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis.
At AGC Pediatrics in Calhoun and Cartersville, Georgia, our board-certified pediatricians provide non-invasive allergy testing to determine allergies in children.

Non-Invasive Allergy Testing for Children
The board-certified pediatricians at AGC Pediatrics understand that many children are afraid of medical tests, and skin-prick tests often present very uncomfortable symptoms. Our non-invasive allergy testing for children relieves most of the discomfort associated with allergy testing, allowing our patients to feel comfortable learning about their allergic triggers.
Many of the children who undergo our non-invasive allergy testing report minor itchiness and discomfort from positive results. Our pediatric allergy tests require only 30 minutes, and produce results within 15 minutes following the test. We encourage parents to learn more about allergies in their children to help alleviate any allergic symptoms and improve their children’s quality of life.
