See pediatrician: Start with a visit to your pediatrician for a complete history and physical exam. They may choose to do some blood work and/or refer you to a specialist: a nutritionist, allergist, immunologist or dermatologist might be needed. Louisville has access to all of these specialists. Schedule an appointment with your daughter's doctor today!
