FAQ
Answers to your most common questions
Do you accept insurance?
We do not—and that’s intentional. Allergenix operates on a Direct Specialty Care (DSC) model, which removes the delays, restrictions, and insurance-driven limitations that often interfere with getting you the care you need. By staying outside of insurance contracts, we can offer: -longer visits -direct access to your physician -transparent, upfront pricing -no surprise bills -no prior authorizations or insurance barriers You pay at the time of your visit, and the focus stays exactly where it belongs—on you and your health, not insurance paperwork.
What does a typical visit cost?
Costs vary depending on the type and length of the visit, but all pricing is completely transparent and listed in detail on our Pricing Page. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges—what you see is exactly what you pay. This straightforward approach allows you to plan your care with confidence and clarity.
What kinds of allergy testing do you offer?
We offer a comprehensive range of allergy testing tailored to both children and adults. This includes skin testing for environmental allergens such as outdoor seasonal pollens (trees, grasses, weeds), indoor perennial allergens (dust mites, pet dander, mold), and a broad panel of animal allergens. We also provide extensive food allergy testing, as well as patch testing for contact dermatitis related to skin rashes and eczema. In addition, we offer venom allergy testing for insect stings, including bees, wasps, hornets, and fire ants. All testing is performed and interpreted by Dr. Stanga and his team to ensure accuracy and personalized treatment planning.

What should I expect during my first visit?
Your first visit is designed to be calm, thorough, and unhurried. Dr. Stanga will take time to listen to your story, understand your concerns, and review your medical history in depth. If needed, testing can often be done during this first visit so you can get answers without multiple appointments. The goal is simple: you should feel heard, understood, and confident in your care plan.
What if I need follow-up care or ongoing treatment?
Follow-up care is straightforward and easy to access. Whether you’re managing asthma, monitoring a chronic condition, or adjusting treatment plans, you can schedule appointments whenever you need them—without waiting for insurance approvals or referrals.
