I’m Dr. Sandra Hong, Chair of the Department of Allergy ＆ Immunology at the Cleveland Clinic. AMA about the allergies that have us all itchy, snotty and all stuffed up this time of year.

I’m an allergist and clinical immunologist at the Cleveland Clinic, a health partner with Parade Magazine. My passion is helping patients who are struggling with their allergies find solutions so they can feel better every day. We take care of people with asthma, immunodeficiencies, eczema, hives, severe allergic reactions and food allergies, which I particularly love working on. I’m the Medical Director of the Food Allergy Center of Excellence, the first center of its kind in northern Ohio. Ask me anything about allergy triggers, symptoms, treatments and whatever else makes you sneeze and itch!

Edit: Thank you for joining Parade’s AMA with the Cleveland Clinic and Dr.Hong! And a special thank you to Dr.Hong for taking the time to answer all these awesome questions. We hope to do more of these soon. In the meantime, you can follow the Cleveland Clinic or you can find more allergy info here.
