Recent Testimonial
“Mich & Caz offer an outstanding allergy service. Mich has looked after our daughter’s nut allergy for several years and we have every confidence in him. Our ten year old daughter, whilst not a great fan of drs/nurses/hospitals, is a big fan of Mich.
We recently took our son for allergy screening with Caz, and it was a pleasure from start to finish.
I am a nurse specialist myself, and I thoroughly recommend Allergy Healthcare. A kind, caring and exemplary allergy service.”

Do you have questions about the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine and your allergy? We have brought together a list of the most frequently asked questions with answers compiled with the assistance of o...
Many of you may be concerned to read this today as the MHRA regulator asked people carrying adrenaline auto-injectors for severe allergy to refrain from the vaccine whilst they investigate two allergic reactions during roll out yesterday. Some reasons not to panic folks - Firstly no allergic reactions were recorded in the clinical trials of this vaccine in over 40,000 people, I would expect at east a couple of hundred have allergy and carry adrenaline so this isn’t going to be common side effect as we would have seen this already. Secondly MHRA will investigate and change this guidance when they have more details - they are protecting the safety of the vaccine by reacting in this way - not saying that it is not safe. Thirdly the side effect profile is lower in those aged over 55 in these studies and that's the group that are being asked to be immunised at the moment, I could go on....... so in short don’t panic, stay in the queue and we will have more info when it's your turn or the turn of your child www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-55244122
