Columbia Allergy Announces Merger With Asthma Allergy Centre in the Portland Area
New Merger Bolsters Asthma and Allergy Treatment for Portland Communities
PORTLAND, Ore., October 12, 2020 (Newswire.com) - Columbia Allergy, the nation’s leading network of renowned allergists and immunologists specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of children and adults with environmental and food allergies, announced today a merger with Asthma Allergy Centre, serving the Portland, Oregon area. Now under the full operation of Dr. Sanjeev Jain and Columbia Allergy, Asthma Allergy Centre will offer additional allergy services and expertise to patients in the area.
Dr. Jain, a world-renowned allergist and immunologist, founded Columbia Allergy in 2005 and has quickly grown the practice to include more than 16 offices in northern California, Oregon, Washington and Idaho. As the first allergist in the world to use oral immunotherapy for desensitization to multiple food allergies simultaneously, Dr. Jain and the Columbia Allergy network has successfully diagnosed and treated over 50,000 patients for a range of environmental and food allergies.
“In addition to expanding our resources, the merger means better access to allergy and asthma treatments for patients in the greater Portland area,” says Dr. Kuo Casey Chang of Asthma Allergy Centre. “We’re excited to be a part of the Columbia Allergy network and look forward to strengthening our range of services, bringing much needed relief and support to patients.”
Asthma Allergy Centre cares for patients in multiple Oregon locations, including Tigard, Newberg, Beaverton, and McMinnville. The center specializes in asthma treatment, allergen immunotherapy, food allergy desensitization, and sinus management.
“It is an honor to further extend Columbia Allergy’s services to the Portland area,” says Dr. Jain. “We believe this merger will result in even greater value and quality of care for both new and existing patients of Asthma Allergy Centre.”
