Private allergy testing helps identify what you're reacting to — common triggers include pollen, house-dust mite, pet dander, foods, and medications. Testing is usually by a blood test (specific IgE) and/or skin-prick testing, chosen to suit your history.

Pinpointing your triggers means you can avoid them more effectively and get the right treatment, from antihistamines to specialist management.

Which Test Is Right?

Blood (specific IgE) tests are convenient and safe even if you can't stop antihistamines, while skin-prick testing gives fast results in clinic. A clinician chooses based on your symptoms and history — and interprets results alongside them, because a positive test only matters if it fits your real-world reactions.

True food allergy (immune, sometimes severe) is different from food intolerance; testing and advice differ, so an assessment first is important.

When to Consider Testing

Consider it for recurrent hay-fever-like symptoms, suspected food or pet allergies, persistent rashes/hives, or reactions you want to understand. Seek urgent care for any severe reaction (breathing difficulty, swelling).

At The Vesey, allergy testing can be arranged without a referral, with a clinician to guide the right tests.
