As an allergist, Dr.
Jain treasures the opportunity to witness his patients
make dramatic improvements after years of suffering.
He can recall several instances where his patients who
had previously required repeated hospital admissions
for asthma exacerbations have returned to normal lives
free of hospitalizations. In Dr. Jain’s experience,
most patients can achieve significant improvements by
determining the individual triggers of their allergic
reactions and by instituting an appropriate therapy.
Dr. Jain is married to Kiren Jain,
MD, the new Chairperson-elect of the Radiology Department
and Director of Breast Imaging at Southwest Washington
Medical Center. They have two children, 11 and 4, and
they live in Vancouver, WA. |

About the Columbia Allergy &
Asthma Clinic
The Columbia Asthma & Allergy
Clinic is a brand new state-of-the-art facility that
provides comprehensive evaluation and treatment for
adult and pediatric patients suffering from allergy
related illnesses such as asthma, hay fever, and hives.
The clinic provides a full ranger
of services, including all forms of allergy testing,
medical care, immunotherapy (allergy shots), and consultation
regarding environmental control measures to help alleviate
allergy symptoms. The clinic also stocks an array of
allergy control products and supplies, as well as medical
equipment such as nebulizers for the treatment of asthma.
In addition to regular outpatient
therapy, the clinic has an extended stay facility where
patients can undergo testing or treatment that requires
several hours to complete. Examples of such services
include medication desensitizations, “rush”
immunotherapy, and placebo-controlled food challenges.
The Columbia Asthma & Allergy
Clinic also has its own in-house lab facility for in-vitro
allergy testing, which distinguishes it from other clinics
in the area. Having his own lab allows Dr. Jain to receive
results and prescribe treatments to patients much more
quickly. The facility also provides clinical lab services
for patients receiving medical care elsewhere. The lab
offers free
specimen pickup and twenty four hour turnaround
time for laboratory results.
