Testimonials

Allergy Healthcare
"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."
