Decisions regarding your care are thoughtfully considered. For patient and staff safety, the “dry-needle” technique used for some patients to address local reactions to allergy injections, will no longer be an option. We have had many incidents where needles become loose and/or detached from the syringe, resulting in sprayed extract, loss of extract and risk of harmful needle exposure. We recognize that you may have concerns regarding this change, and we welcome you to schedule an appointment with a GRA provider to review further.
