Center Overview

Allergy and Asthma Associates of Houston, P.A. has experienced significant growth following it's establishment in 1972 by Dr. Agile H. Redmon and Dr. Richard H. Barrick. It is the largest Allergy and Asthma practice in the state of Texas.

Realizing the large number of patient contacts and excellent facilities available to the practice, we made the decision to enter pharmaceutical research in 1997.

We are currently involved in clinical trials and have met or exceeded our enrollment goals and have a high retention rate for study participants. We maintain the highest medical standards of patient care and data integrity. The staff includes physicians who are board certified in Pediatrics, Internal Medicine and Pulmonology in addition to Allergy, Asthma and Immunology.

We are seeking additional clinical research trials involving Phase II through Phase IV studies, both adult and pediatric. We invite you and members of your team to visit our sites.
