We welcome Dr. Andrew Dang, MD of Premiere Allergy in Columbus, OH to our Private Practice OIT Provider List.
Andy Dang, MD., grew up in Allentown, PA. and is extremely passionate about the management of food allergy, with special interests in food allergy immunotherapy as well as social communication and perception of food allergy.
“Our son is currently undergoing peanut OIT with Dr. Dang at the Dublin location. Initially, we were apprehensive about beginning this process because it’s terrifying to feed your child an allergen that they have had anaphylactic reactions to in the past. But the moment I met Dr. Dang and his nurse, Heather, I KNEW that we were in great hands. We make an hour drive every week for my son’s (increase), and it is truly the highlight of our week. Dr. Dang and “Miss Heather” feel like family and my kids enjoy the toys and tv in the immunotherapy lounge. I thought I’d dread our weekly visits since the thought of exposing my son to peanuts is anxiety inducing, but it’s honestly something we look forward to because they have proven time and time again that we are in the best hands. They go above and beyond in every way they can. I am convinced there’s not a better allergist and nurse than Dr. Dang and Miss Heather. I’ll never be able to adequately thank them for changing our lives with their knowledge and compassion through this OIT process. ” (Comment used with author’s knowledge and permission.)
When not working, Dr. Dang enjoys reading, playing guitar, and tennis.
