What Makes Our Office “Allergy Patient Friendly?”
- There is no carpeting in the patient areas. This is because carpeting harbors dust mites and often contain mold. We have used a combination of tile and vinyl flooring to give the appearance of hardwoods while staying economical and functional.
- There is no upholstered furniture in the patient areas. We have used a combination of wood, leather and vinyl because fabric harbors dust mites.
- There are no live plants in the patient areas. This is because soil harbors mold.
- There are no drapes in the patient areas. This is because cloth drapes harbor dust mites.
- There are HEPA filters in the waiting room to help filter pollens and other microscopic allergens.
- The perfumed inserts in magazines have been removed to help our asthma and rhinitis patients who are triggered by strong odors.
- Low VOC paints were used in the office interior to decrease the smell of strong odors
