Private Allergy Tests for Adults and Children at MUMS Solihull

MUMS Solihull offers allergy testing with our GPs, Nurses for adults and Paediatrician for children. Allergy testing in Solihull at MUMS is affordable with rapid results.

From food allergies to insect allergies, allergies affect approximately one in four people every day in the United Kingdom. Although many individuals are aware of their allergies as they often arise in childhood, it is not uncommon to develop later in life. If you have reason to believe that an allergy is impairing your day-to-day life, it's in your best interest to undergo allergy testing. Private allergy testing at MUMS Solihull is available 6 days a week.

What Is Allergy Testing?

Allergy testing is the process in which tests are conducted to measure the number of antibodies in the blood that the immune system has produced in response to an allergen. To determine whether you or your child has an allergy, you will be required to have a blood test.  Your blood sample will then be sent to our lab to be analysed to determine whether any allergens are present. Private allergy testing is popular in private clinics because allergy testing is not available in NHS GP Practices.
