Gastro-intestinal symptoms are not always allergy related. We recommend discussing food intolerances with your GP in the first instance.
We do not provide acute or emergency services. If you're experiencing urgent symptoms, please contact your GP immediately.

We also offer ongoing management of desensitisation treatments that have been commenced at other centres.
We accept both self-referrals and referrals from your family doctor.
