Allergy and Inflammation Care
The Division provides general outpatient Allergy and Clinical Immunology services at the main BIDMC campus, as well as the Lexington and Chelsea satellite facilities.
Sr. Sheikh has expertise in the diagnosis and management of allergic and inflammatory diseases, including allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, sinusitis, asthma, food allergy, atopic dermatitis, urticaria, angioedema, anaphylaxis, drug hypersensitivity, latex allergy, hypereosinophilic syndromes, and immunodeficiency disorders.
The Division also maintains an inpatient consultation service at the main BIDMC campus. We are available to assist with any inpatient allergic or immunological issues, including the evaluation and management of drug allergy, drug desensitization, cutaneous eruptions, anaphylaxis, and primary immunodeficiency workup.
We are currently developing an interdisciplinary program for the evaluation and management of cutaneous and systemic mastocytosis, which is a coordinated effort between Allergy & Inflammation, Hematology/Oncology, Dermatology, Clinical Pathology, and the Division of Experimental Pathology.
