About the Doctor
Modern pediatric allergy is one of the most rapidly evolving fields within pediatrics. The prevalence of food allergy, asthma, atopic dermatitis and allergic rhinitis in children in Europe grows every year, and approaches to diagnosis and treatment are constantly being updated. Doctor has worked professionally in this field since 2014 and systematically follows current protocols and scientific evidence — she is author and co-author of publications in leading European allergy journals.
Her academic trajectory reflects consistent training at top specialty centers. Her medical degree and doctoral training are from Bogomolets National Medical University in Kyiv, one of the oldest medical universities in Eastern Europe. Her PhD thesis focused on the differential approach to treating and preventing food allergy in infants. Her fellowships and international training came through the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI), including two programs at Centro Hospitalar e Universitário de São João in Porto, a leading academic center in Portugal. Since 2025 she has been completing her general medical training (Internato do Formação Geral) at Hospital de São João.
Doctor's approach combines evidence-based medicine, thorough diagnostic work, clear explanations for parents and individualized treatment plans. Many pediatric allergic conditions require not a single consultation but long-term monitoring and treatment adjustment — and doctor is set up to provide exactly this kind of long-term support to the family.
