"Dr. Nicholson completely changed my life. After two years of allergy shots my seasonal allergies are almost completely gone. He took the time to explain everything and actually listened to my concerns. Same-week appointment was a lifesaver."
"I've had exercise-induced asthma for years. Dr. Nicholson was the first doctor who actually dug into the root cause instead of just prescribing another inhaler. Got a same-week appointment and had a real treatment plan within one visit."
"Our 8-year-old had a severe peanut allergy and we lived in fear every day. Dr. Nicholson walked us through OIT step by step. Six months in she can tolerate small amounts. We finally feel like we can breathe. He is genuinely brilliant and so kind."
"I struggled with severe eczema for 10 years and seen several dermatologists. Dr. Nicholson identified my specific triggers through testing and got me on Dupixent. My skin is clear for the first time in a decade. Can't recommend him enough."
"Had chronic hives for 8 months with no answers. Dr. Nicholson diagnosed me with CSU on the first visit and had a treatment plan immediately. Staff is incredibly warm and the West Jordan office is easy to get to. Truly exceptional care."
"I had a life-threatening reaction to a wasp sting. Dr. Nicholson got me started on venom immunotherapy quickly and explained everything with real patience. A year later I was stung again with zero reaction. He literally saved my life."

The only proven way to naturally retrain your immune system and achieve long-lasting โ often permanent โ relief from environmental allergies.
Unlike antihistamines and nasal sprays that only mask symptoms, Subcutaneous Immunotherapy (SCIT) โ commonly known as allergy shots โ works by gradually exposing your immune system to the substances that trigger your allergies. Over time, your body learns to tolerate them rather than overreact.
After a full course of treatment (3โ5 years), many patients achieve significant or complete remission of their allergy symptoms โ often for life.
Patients with allergic rhinitis, allergic asthma, allergic conjunctivitis, or insect venom allergy who have failed or want to avoid long-term medications. A skin test or blood test is required to identify your specific triggers and design your custom extract.
Comprehensive testing identifies exactly which environmental allergens trigger your immune response. Results in about 20 minutes.
Your personalized vial is mixed based on your test results. Takes 1โ2 weeks to prepare.
Weekly injections with gradually increasing doses over several months. Cluster therapy can accelerate this phase.
Monthly injections once your target dose is reached. Most patients see significant improvement within the first year.
After 3โ5 years, many patients achieve lasting remission even after stopping shots.

A life-changing treatment that builds tolerance to dangerous food allergens โ dramatically reducing the risk of accidental reaction and anaphylaxis.
Oral Immunotherapy (OIT) is a medically supervised treatment in which patients consume gradually increasing doses of a food allergen โ such as peanut flour or tree nut protein โ under careful clinical oversight. The goal is to raise the threshold at which a reaction occurs, providing a critical safety buffer against accidental exposures.
Detailed history, allergy testing (skin prick and/or specific IgE blood tests) to confirm allergy and assess candidacy for OIT.
First doses are given in-office under close observation. This visit determines your starting dose and confirms safety.
You take measured doses at home each day, gradually increasing according to your personalized schedule.
Every 1โ2 weeks, you return to the clinic for supervised dose increases. We monitor closely for any reactions.
Once your maintenance dose is reached, many patients can safely tolerate accidental exposure amounts โ a life-changing result.
OIT is offered for children and adults with confirmed food allergies. The ideal candidate is motivated, able to follow daily dosing, and has consistent access to epinephrine. Dr. Nicholson will evaluate candidacy at your consultation.
