An immunologist is a specialist who diagnoses and treats primary and secondary immune disorders. In addition to identifying and managing these conditions, an immunologist also works on infection prevention by vaccinating healthy children and adults, as well as those in high-risk groups.
The first symptoms of immunodeficiency usually appear as recurrent infections, particularly in the respiratory and gastrointestinal systems. It’s important not to underestimate these symptoms but rather consult a specialist as soon as possible. Patients with autoimmune diseases—such as connective tissue disorders, inflammatory bowel disease, thyroid disorders, neurological conditions, or skin diseases—also seek help from an immunologist.
At the MediPark clinic in Warsaw, there is also a pediatric immunologist. This doctor has the knowledge and competence to diagnose and treat many diseases. You may want to take your child to a pediatric immunologist in cases of recurring infections, suspected allergies, or symptoms indicating a significant decrease in immunity.
The pediatric immunologist will conduct a thorough interview and refer the patient for the necessary tests. Based on these results, they can make a diagnosis and implement the appropriate treatment plan.
