Patients Seen: All Ages

My name is Dr. Jason Knuff­man and my pro­fes­sion­al pas­sion is treat­ing patients of all ages with pos­si­ble or proven aller­gic and immuno­log­ic con­di­tions. Every patient has ques­tions that they want to have answered in the most up-to-date fash­ion pos­si­ble. I like to make sure my patients are giv­en the oppor­tu­ni­ty to be ful­ly under­stood. It is my priv­i­lege to then inform the patient and fam­i­ly on the most accu­rate diag­noses and advise on the best treat­ments available.

Clinical Interests

Although I enjoy see­ing and treat­ing all patients with aller­gic con­di­tions, I espe­cial­ly enjoy treat­ing the most aller­gic indi­vid­u­als who need advanced, life-chang­ing ther­a­pies. The field of aller­gy has evolved tremen­dous­ly to include med­ica­tions and treat­ment plans that pro­duce out­stand­ing results for this par­tic­u­lar group of individuals.

Personal Interests

I love the game of golf, and in fact, I coach the girls team at Quin­cy Notre Dame High School which I enjoy thor­ough­ly. In addi­tion, I enjoy the chal­lenge of small home-improve­ment projects in my home built in the ear­ly 1900s. Most of all I enjoy spend­ing time with my wife, four daugh­ters and one yel­low boy dog!
