Allergies are the body’s adverse reaction to substances in our everyday environment. These reactions can be caused by a wide range of things including pollen, dust and certain foods. Common allergic reactions include hayfever, asthma and skin abnormalities.

Testing for allergies can be through taking a sample of blood to be tested in our laboratories or by a skin prick allergy test.
