I've been getting allergy shots for 5 years at Allergy Institute PC; the staff is helpful and…read morefriendly. The shots have helped a lot and now I can mow the lawn without wearing heavy clothing and a respirator. I no longer use an albuterol inhaler. I still have minor coughing bouts, but nothing like what I used to go through. Insurance pays most everything; costs me about $40 per year for everything. Highly Recommend. My dogs come with me and wait in the SUV.

Everyone in the office is very nice and easy to work with. Normally when you call in with a question to a doctors office you receive a call back from a nurse or another support staff member. Dr Petts always take the time to call me. I have seen a number of allergist before I found Dr. Petts. I would recommend her to everyone.

I have AGS. My levels are .32; anything over .10 is positive so mine are nearly three times the…read moreminimum positive result. The Public Health nurse who called me said I should see an allergist and get a prescription for epi pens because AGS is weird and even with low levels I could have an anaphylactic reaction (and as it turns out the absolute gastrointestinal misery I went through that spurred me to get the testing *was* a form of anaphylactic reaction). Unfortunately I chose this place. Over $600 to be told the AGS levels on my blood test were "likely a false positive" and therefore no Epi was prescribed. Visit notes list several things that were not actually done and says I likely have "food intolerance", not an allergy. Completely disregarded the fact that AGS is a reaction to a SUGAR molecule while the limited scratch tests he did on me check reactions to PROTEINS (which is why they are NOT reliable for testing for AGS). Did NOT prescribe an Epi for me, so I just starved my way through a two-week camping trip for fear of potential reaction. My visit notes also suggest a "pork sausage challenge" at the office over 4 hours to rule out AGS. That's NOT the way AGS works. With AGS you can eat something one time and not react at all, and have the exact same thing two days later and have a bad reaction. It's a crap shoot. It's just plain dangerous to suggest to someone they're not AGS based on the fact that they don't react within a few hours to *one* in-office challenge. What happens when someone celebrates with a nice steak dinner because this doctor said they had a false positive, and they wake up in hospital or worse because *that's* when their body decided to react?? I also do NOT appreciate the complete lack of transparency with respect to pricing. Prices and fees should be clearly communicated BEFORE testing so the patient can make an informed decision as to whether to proceed. I feel like the over $600 I was charged for this one short visit with minor testing was a massive overcharge. I won't be going back.

We are now changing offices because we no longer trust the staff.

Intersection of NW 36th and N Ankeny Blvd. the PA Brandon Mitchell is super thorough! They usually can get you in same day as long as you call ahead for appointment. They are open M-F 8-5. Which is pretty standard for a doctors office. They have no appointments from 12-1 pm for lunch. New patients are always welcome and they are great at working with insurances! Didn't think I would review a doctors office but they are a great group. Beautiful office with ample parking and new equipment!
