Since March 2014, the Clinical Allergy and Immunological Unit of Centro Medico Teknon has been managed by Dr. A. Valero Santiago.

The Unit has a team of doctors who specialise in allergies and nursing staff with university qualifications and wide experience in allergic disease diagnostic and therapeutic techniques.

The Unit performs immuno-allergic studies in paediatric and adult allergic pathologies. It has the appropriate means and diagnostic allergens to study respiratory allergies (rhinoconjunctivitis, bronchial asthma...), food allergies, drug allergies, insect allergies (bee and wasp stings), skin allergies(hives, angioedema, contact dermatitis, atopic dermatitis...) and occupational allergies, among others.

Scientific breakthroughs have now enabled the Unit it to use molecular biology for the in-vitro study of allergic diseases and new therapeutic options: using therapeutic extracts (immunotherapy) with the major allergen determinants and severe pathology treatments with anti IgE molecules (Omalizumab) for resolving chronic pathologies and initiating food desensitisation.

The Unit performs the respective diagnostic tests on the different allergic pathologies.
