They will provide patients with convenient, local access to specialized evaluation and treatment of allergies and asthma. Mayo Clinic allergists Mark Bubak, M.D., Rosa Ten, M.D., and Gerald Volcheck, M.D., will treat adult patients, and Mayo Clinic pediatric allergist John Yunginger, M.D., will treat children and adolescents. This is the first time we have been able to offer allergy services in Faribault. Patients now can see a specialist close to home, instead of having to drive to another city for more specialized care. The Mayo Clinic allergy outreach team administers and interprets skin tests for allergic reactions to pollen, mold, dust, food, stinging insects and penicillin.
Treatment varies with the type of allergy and condition.
We emphasize new and better medicines that can be inhaled through a mouthpiece or mask, to put the medicine exactly where it needs to be, rather than all through the body. Cannon Valley Clinic is a family care clinic with specialists in family medicine, internal medicine, obstetrics and gynecology and pediatric and adolescent medicine. Specialists from Mayo Clinic and from other medical centers also see patients regularly in Faribault.
