ALLERGY SHOT PATIENTS

We have restarted administering allergy shots with a new social distancing protocol for your safety.

To resume your allergy shots please follow these steps:

1. Schedule a Telemed visit (click here or call 310.371.1388)
   • to determine your modified allergy shot protocol during the COVID-19 pandemic
   • to schedule a time for your next allergy shot

2. Morning of your scheduled allergy shot:
   • Call us to reschedule if you are not feeling well
   • take an antihistamine
   • bring your epinephrine autoinjector (EpiPen or Auvi-Q) if this has been recommended

3. Arrive for your allergy shot appointment

• IMPORTANT: Only one patient will be scheduled every 5 minutes — please be on time so that we may keep safe distancing in the office.
• Remember to wear a mask.
• Bring along a responsible adult from your household if possible, to stay in the car and contact us in case of reaction afterward

4. Come into the office for your allergy shot
   • it's only you and the shot nurse in the office today - full PPE and social distancing rules in place.
   • or child patient + parent + nurse

5. Back to the car
