The Southern California Food Allergy Institute is a nonprofit that is revolutionizing food allergy treatment and restoring hope through precision medicine.
Founded by Dr. Inderpal Randhawa, SoCal Food Allergy is a nonprofit dedicated to providing innovative and safe treatment for the 6 million children in the U.S. who suffer from food allergies.
Safety-oriented
We are affiliated with Miller Children’s Hospital in Long Beach, California, the 6th largest children’s hospital in the country, allowing us to provide therapy in a safe and secure hospital setting.
Patient-focused
We offer a form of oral immunotherapy (OIT) that desensitizes children over time to the foods to which they were previously allergic. Our top priorities are safety, the goal of free-eating, efficiency (most foods treated within 6 weeks), and long-term follow-up care for years to come. Our therapy is exceptional because we are 100% focused on precision medicine: Our protocol is specifically tailored to each patient’s unique immune system.
SoCal Food Allergy has an open access model without any qualifications for treatment. We treat the entire spectrum of the disease — from lower risk to the most severe cases. While most of our patients are allergic to the eight most common foods (eggs, wheat, soy, tree nuts, milk, fish, peanuts, and shellfish), we treat even the rarest of food allergies, as well. Our primary patients are children up to age 21, but we are equipped to treat patients of any age.
Our goal is simple: For all children to safely eat whatever they want.
