What is an allergist?

An allergist, also known as an allergist/immunologist, is a medical specialist focusing on conditions related to the immune system. This system consists of specialized cells, organs, and tissues responsible for fighting off diseases.
Allergists diagnose and treat various immune-related disorders, including:

  • Asthma: Characterized by inflammation of the airways in the lungs, asthma attacks are often triggered by environmental factors.
  • Primary immunodeficiency disorders: Genetic conditions that impair the proper functioning of the immune system, with over 200 known disorders in this category.
