    Clontarf Allergy Clinic. Dr Ranbir Kaulsay. : 01-8338207
    Very very expensive, but hes legit. Think it cost me about €450. Hes a fully qualified doctor and consultant allergist. I attended him last year and was very sceptical, but he seemed to be spot on with his diagnosis. He does IgG testing. Have a look at his website.

    i had polyps removed from my nose(inside) and my consultant advised me to this dude above, very expensive for the allergy tests and the consultation charges, fond nothing on me but i guess he was very thorough, however, when he read my results out and said something stupid as i might have a very acute allergy to dogs/cats, the look of disgust on my face was enough for him to get embarrassed, first time i seen a dark skinned person go red, what complete b****x , he knew it, i knew it, complete waste of money(over 700), never will i go to an allergy specialist and definitely not this scheister!

    This Allergy Clinic in Clontarf is an excellent service. The costs, tests, consults etc are all explained to you in great detail before you decide to make an appointment. Their tests are very comprehensive and there are good treatment services available for people with mild to severe allergies.
    Obviously people's opinion differ so you're either happy you don't have an allergy or happy that you've found out what your allergy is or isn't.
    I do not think this is a waste of money as everything is explained to you before you attend so you know what to expect cost wise. I had allergy and food intolerance tests done here and found their service to be top class and I have recommended this service to numerous people who also seem happy with their outcome.

    I was looking into this for food intolerances a few weeks back, haven't gone yet, there's plenty of places that offer the IgG test's cheaper then the Clontarf Clinic. I'm not saying the services are on a par, but there are alternatives!

    http://www.fitzwilliamfoodtest.com/ from what I've read/heard are good

    http://www.yorktest.ie/ I have no idea how these guys work??

    McCabes pharmacy also provide the tests but I think they just send them off to Yorktest or somewhere similar?? I'm sure other Pharmacies do the same!
