We went to see Professor Brough for our 1year old son after having throughly exhausted every avenue with the NHS for treating his eczema, which we believed to be allergy related. We were amazed with how quickly we received the appointment, and with the excellent level of care and follow up. After two appointments, our son is almost completely eczema free! We discovered the allergies and we now have a simple plan to follow if he ever flares up again. We are beyond relieved and so grateful to the team! Thank you so much!

I'm so glad that I took my son to see Dr. Helen. She took the time to really listen to us and our concerns and addressed each and every single question that we had. I felt she was extremely knowledgeable and she offered us lots of advice. We came away from the session with a treatment plan which is not something that you usually get and I feel more reassured that my son is in good hands. Thank you

I have had a great experience with Helen Borough. She has helped my daughter to help find the root cause of the problems she is facing. Also, Helen is very easy to talk to and listens to what you have to say and takes into consideration your worries that you may have. She is highly skilled and very is very informative and explain everything properly.

Dr Brough and the team were very professional. As a mother I was really anxious to understand my child's allergy and potential consequences. I was given the time to understand the root-causes, the symptoms and ways to manage and maneuver different situations.
The appointments were easy to make and we were offered sufficient time to go through the tests and related diagnosis.
Dr Brough is confident and knows what she does which adds to the credibility of the clinic.
The team is very cooperative and patient.
All in all, we had a very good experience.

Dr Helen and her team were brilliant and even managed to put my nervous daughter at ease. A diagnosis was made promptly and actions to be taken explained thoroughly. I've already recommended Dr Helen to a friend.

Helen is a marvellous doctor and is very responsive at all times. Our experience has been very positive.

We have been seeing Prof. Brough at her clinic for nearly a year and a half now, and we can’t recommend her enough. She’s guided us through overcoming our son’s peanut allergy and supported us in aspects relating to his eczema and overall nutrition and diet. Without her help, we’d provably still be fearing a peanut allergy reaction without much light at the end of the tunnel.
Reply from Professor Helen Brough - Children's Allergy Doctors
Very informative on guiding us through our daughters allergies.
Reply from Professor Helen Brough - Children's Allergy Doctors
Professor Brough was so supportive and insightful in her help toward the treatment required for my son, explaining clearly those areas she felt we needed to address, and the results were fast – changing his life immediately for the better. We’re incredibly grateful to her and her team, and appreciate the patience and care shown. We’re confident in the guidance and follow up plan we’ve been provided and hopeful for the future. Thanks again for all of you help and continued support. Jack, Sophie and Spencer

We had a quiet poor quality expirience with Professor Helen Brough. She was snobish, didn't look at my daughter skin at all, no deep question about routine or circumstances, no any additional gut bacteria text or etc. 15 minutes talk from basic information and commercial pharmaceutical samples. It was very disappointing meeting compare the price and all doctors descriptions.
