Allergy

The job of an allergist/immunologist is to diagnose, manage, and treat diseases related to allergies. Preventing these types of illnesses is also an important role of the allergist and immunologist. Doctors who wish to study this specialty must complete several years of training beyond medical school. For example, the allergist/immunologist will undergo a residency in either internal medicine or pediatrics. After passing board exams for this training, he or she will continue on with a fellowship in allergy/immunology in order to pass yet another certifying exam. In addition to the more commonly-recognized allergies to pets and dust, the allergist/immunologist will also be qualified to work with a variety of other immunodeficiency and autoimmune diseases. They are able to work with these chronic conditions in order to provide patients with a better quality of life. Doctors will use a variety of diagnostic tests to determine a patient's condition and will work directly with the patient to determine the best course of treatment, ranging from antihistamines to asthma inhalers and beyond. The allergist and immunologist will typically work with patients who have concerns relating to: • Animal Allergies • Food Allergies • Medicine Allergies • Asthma • Hay Fever • Eczema • Hives • Immune Disorders • Sinusitis

Chiropractor

Chiropractors specialize in alternative medicine that focuses on diagnosis and treatment of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially the spine, under the belief that these disorders affect general health via the nervous system. It is the largest alternative medical profession. The main chiropractic treatment technique involves manual therapy, especially manipulation of the spine, other joints, and soft tissues, but may also include exercises and health and lifestyle counseling. The "specific focus of chiropractic practice" is chiropractic subluxation, a concept for whose existence there is no good scientific evidence. Traditional chiropractic assumes that a vertebral subluxation or spinal joint dysfunction interferes with the body's function and its innate intelligence.

Infectious Disease

Infectious diseases, also known as communicable diseases, contagious diseases or transmissible diseases, are caused by pathogenic microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, parasites or fungi. The diseases can be spread, directly or indirectly, from one person to another. Zoonotic diseases are infectious diseases of animals that can cause disease when transmitted to humans. An infectious disease (ID) specialist is a doctor of internal medicine who is qualified as an expert in the diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases. Not everyone who has an infectious disease needs an infectious disease specialist. Generally, infections are initially diagnosed by primary care physicians or internal medicine doctors. Your primary care physician will determine if you have a need to see an ID specialist.

Nephrology

A Nephrologist will evaluate and treat conditions associated with the function of your kidneys to identify potential problems or disease. Dialysis When your kidneys are healthy, they clean your blood. They also make hormones that keep your bones strong and your blood healthy. When your kidneys fail, you need treatment to replace the work your kidneys used to do. Unless you have a kidney transplant, you will need a treatment called dialysis. There are two main types of dialysis: hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. Both types filter your blood to rid your body of harmful wastes, extra salt and water. Hemodialysis does that with a machine. Peritoneal dialysis uses the lining of your abdomen, called the peritoneal membrane, to filter your blood. They also require that you follow a special diet. Your Primary Care Physician will determine if you are in need of dialysis. If you are in need of dialysis your doctor will refer you to a specialist who will help you determine which type of treatment is best for you.
