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!
