My expertise in paediatric allergy includes: • Food allergy • Respiratory allergy (allergic rhinitis/conjunctivitis, asthma) • Skin allergy (eczema, urticaria) • Allergies to drugs, insect stings and latex
I also have a particular interest in gastrointestinal allergy, allergen desensitisation/immunotherapy and allergy education.
I’m a consultant paediatric allergist in Europe's largest children's allergy service at a leading London teaching hospital. I’m also actively involved in medical research in this area and have a private practice based in London. I’m happy to discuss the field with industry or commercial interests as well as discuss specific allergies and their treatment.
I’m on the advisory panels of the Anaphylaxis Campaign and Allergy UK.
"Fantastic call with Adam. My daughter had a terrible eczema flare up and I wasn’t getting the information and guidance I needed from the usual sources. Through Greatvine I was able to have a relaxed conversation with a known specialist, without a lengthy wait for referral. It was all I needed. Dr Fox listened while I explained what had happened, was able to pinpoint why the flare up had happened, give me guidance on how I should be looking after her skin and thoughts on ongoing treatment. Professional, concise and confident. Wouldn’t hesitate to seek his advice/opinion again."
