I received many helpful replies, most of which are included below.  I
haven't ordered a test yet, but I will probably go with York labs, even
though theirs is more expensive. Reliability and not having to deal with a
doctor are the main reasons. Plus, I wrote to other labs and they did not
reply.

I also talked to Melissa Diane Smith (author of "Against the Grain" and a
nutritionist) this morning at our celiac Walk, and she said that York is
the one she recommends to everyone. She also said that it is very common
for a person to react to multiple foods if they have problems with one
food.

Thanks for all the responses!  This group is great.

RESPONSES:
I recently got it done through York Labs www.yorkallergyusa.com. You don't
need to get blood drawn either. You just prick your finger and put the
blood in a tiny tube. I didn't like the results (too many foods that I
react to, ha ha), but everything else seemed fine. Whether the results
were accurate is still too soon to tell for me.

I have used Great Plains Laboratory  www.greatplainslaboratory.com  for my
daughter and it was very helpful.  You can order the test kit for free
from this website.  I did have my doctor sign it so I could get my
insurance to cover it, but ask your friend if you need a doctor's
signature - the kit has the vials to collect the blood in, then FedEx it
to the lab in Kansas.  The directions are all in the kit.  We did the IgG
testing - it tests about 100 foods and the degree of reaction to each
one.  We got the results mailed directly to us.  (They also sent a copy to
our doctor)  Check out their website -that may help.

Great Smokies is a really good lab for food allergy testing.  I believe
they have a website & I'll bet you can contact them to ask how you can get
the orders you need.
Also, you might consider finding a naturopath in your area.  They can
order food allergy testing, usually from Great Smokies.

You do not need a doctor for this one. It is done by a finger stick. I
used it and it helped me identify other foods. Luckily I did not have too
many foods on my list that I react to.

I've heard many positive things about York Labs.  I plan to use them for
testing once I have the $$.  They actually do research and publish it.
I'd be careful of enterolabs.  They don't do peer reviewed research
