Sanjeev Jain, MD, PhD, an Allergist & Immunologist with Columbia Asthma & Allergy Clinic

Get to know Allergist & Immunologist Dr. Sanjeev Jain, who serves patients throughout California.

Dr. Jain is a renowned allergist and immunologist practicing at Columbia Asthma & Allergy Clinic, which has 12 locations in four states: California, Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. He travels to offices in all four states every week.

In his experience, nearly all allergies can be treated by identifying a patient’s triggers and desensitizing the body through immunotherapy to help them return to normal lives. Some of his groundbreaking contributions include performing one of the first oral immunotherapy treatments (OIT) for food allergies in a private practice setting, and the first multi-nut OIT in the world. His team was the first to desensitize patients to many different foods including coconut, garlic, shrimp, fish, oat, and buckwheat.

At the clinic, Dr. Jain and his team have developed unique sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) protocols which are being used to treat a wide variety of medical conditions such as atopic dermatitis and eosinophilic esophagitis. It was also the first private practice in the United States to do lymph node desensitization treatments for environmental allergies.

With a broad educational background, he received advanced fellowship training from the allergy and immunology program at Yale University School of Medicine in New Haven, Connecticut. He earned joint medical and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degrees from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and completed his residency training at the University of Texas Health Sciences Center in San Antonio.

Subsequent to his education, the doctor attained board certification in allergy & immunology through the American Board of Allergy and Immunology (ABAI). The mission of the ABAI is to improve the quality of medical care by the development and utilization of professional and educational standards for the initial certification and maintenance of certification of physician specialists in allergy and immunology.

To boot, he is board-certified in internal medicine by the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM). The ABIM is a physician-led, non-profit, independent evaluation organization driven by doctors who want to achieve higher standards for better care in a rapidly changing world.

With a passion for teaching, Dr. Jain has held teaching positions and practiced at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle. He specializes in immunotherapy and has been a pioneer in developing novel forms of immunotherapy, as well as creative protocols to optimize their effectiveness.

Allergy and immunology involve the management of disorders related to the immune system. These conditions range from the very common to the very rare, spanning all ages and encompassing various organ systems. An allergist / immunologist is a physician specially trained to diagnose, treat, and manage allergies, asthma, and immunologic disorders, including primary immunodeficiency disorders.

As a testament to his success, Dr. Jain has won numerous awards and has been consistently listed as one of America’s Top Physicians over the past several years. He is also the co-author of the book, “Treating Food Allergies With Modern Medicine”.
