ExpertiseAllergic disease has increased dramatically over the past few years and now affects an incredible 40% of British children.
Common allergic conditions include food allergy, eczema, asthma and allergic rhinitis but allergy can also cause problems such as colic, chronic cough, reflux, poor growth and even constipation. Diagnosis may therefore require considerable experience and expertise together with access to the most up to date diagnostic tests.
Allergic conditions seldom affect only one body system. As one of the UK's few accredited specialist Paediatric Allergists, Dr Fox does not look to treat a condition in isolation but looks beyond the presenting problems to consider their underlying cause. He aims to treat the child as a whole, considering how the symptoms and the treatment of one condition will impact those of the others.
Dr Fox's work in the UK's largest NHS children's allergy service and ongoing involvement in academic medicine allows him to bring the most up to date specialist treatments to his patients before they are available outside of the specialist arena. |
