Allergies are a growing problem, and Australia has some of the highest rates of allergy disorders in the developed world, with 1 in 10 children and 2 in 5 adults being affected.

Initially, she meets with you for a 15-minute appointment to go over your concerns and current symptoms. If allergy testing is necessary, we will schedule you for a skin prick test at a future consultation. This appointment will be approximately 60 to 90 minutes where we will administer a skin prick test, and you can discuss the results and treatment plan with Dr Simpson. To speed things up at the clinic, we have an allergy questionnaire available online that can be filled out before arriving for your appointment.
