What is FAAIS?

The purposes of the Florida Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Society are:

• to promote the highest quality of care for the patient with allergic, asthmatic and immunologic diseases;
• to advance the knowledge and practice of allergy, asthma and immunology by education of medical professionals;
• to represent the interests of the membership of this Society to regional, state and national medical and allergy, asthma and immunology societies;
• to educate the public in the field of allergy, asthma and immunology.

Current Projects:
