Dr Costa was wonderful

Dr Costa was wonderful. My daughter saw him regarding a persistent cough and he was so lovely, easy to speak to, and very understanding. He took the time to listen, reassured her, and gave clear, practical advice that really helped. We felt in very safe hands and would highly recommend him.

We have had an excellent experience with Dr Costa since our first consultation for our son’s allergy. His expertise is clear, and he takes the time to explain the most appropriate, evidence-based treatment options. We are extremely grateful for his ongoing care and would recommend him without hesitation.

Outstanding Allergy & Immunology Specialist

I had an excellent experience with Dr Costa. He was thorough, patient, and took the time to fully understand my concerns. He allowed space for questions, provided clear explanations, and helped put my mind at ease. I left feeling validated and reassured. I would highly recommend him for anyone seeking support with allergies or immunity-related issues.

Life Changing

From the moment I met Dr Costa, I knew we were in safe hands. Dr Costa gives my son an exceptional level of care. He is extremely warm and personable and immediately put my (neurodiverse) son at ease. Dr Costa's expertise is unparalleled. He reviewed my son's medical history meticulously, and offered immediate guidance to improve my son's existing medicine regime. Dr Costa took a lot of time to discuss every aspect of my son's allergies and health, at a high level, and answer our questions without being rushed. My son genuinely enjoys his appointments! I can't thank Dr Costa enough, he is transforming my son's life which has been severely blighted by grass and tree pollen allergy and previous ineffective attempts by doctors to treat this. Before seeing Dr Costa, my son's school attendance over the spring/summer terms was at 35% due to his real suffering. As a parent, I felt so helpless and terribly sad that my son would live that way forever. Now my son is being treated with sublingual immunotherapy by Dr Costa, he is genuinely looking forward to enjoying summers in the future! Thank you from the bottom of my heart Dr Costa for all that you do!

Outstanding!

Dr Costa is a very professional consultant, he explained every step of my drug allergy testing throughly. He also went the extra mile by looking up information and ingredients into the medication. I was very pleased.

Fantastic Service Provided

Dr Costa was very professional and informative. He made sure he fully understood my concerns and ensured he put me at ease and that the tests would be able to tell me exactly the condition.

Allergy testing

I recently took my baby to see Dr Costa for suspected allergies. From start to finish the appointment was very positive. Dr Costa’s knowledge and expertise is outstanding. When my baby was positive for a number of allergies everything was explained to me very calmly. I highly recommend!!
