Mr. Steven B Machtinger MD
Dr. Steven Machtinger practices Allergy, Asthma and Immunology in San Mateo, CA. He specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of asthma and other allergic diseases of infants, children and adults. Allergist-Immunologists are trained and certified to treat each patient's sensitivity and response to environmental allergens. They are also trained to identify and differentiate the allergic and immunologic causes of diseases affecting the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts and the skin. Dr. Machtinger provides several means of testing and treatment to improve immunity to potentially harmful substances. Before I trained in allergy-immunology-and respiratory diseases at Stanford, I worked for two years as a general practitioner in Oregon with the Indian Health Service and then completed residency in Pediatrics at Stanford. My wife and I have two grown children and three granddaughters. In my spare time I enjoy cycling, hiking and playing the acoustic guitar.
