My husband, a turning 6 year old son and I just have just moved to Bahrain for a week. We're looking for an allergist for my son who has severe food allergies ( wheat and dairy products). He usually went to a regular check-up every 3 months when we were in Thailand  and of course he' s on medical treatment ( for controlling his allergic symptoms) which should be on going. Could anyone please recommend any doctor or hospital that specializes in this area? Thank you.

Hi, Sorry I can't help but if you use facebook look for a group called Mum's in Bahrain. They will help you in seconds for sure.

This forum is amazing for lots of reasons but sometimes the people on here just simply cannot answer you.

Thank you ^__^

Hi Poy

Welcome to Bahrain and to the forum.

Sorry to hear of your son's allergies. Hope it gets treated and cured with time. Perhaps as a first step you could consult a good paediatrician in one of the main hospitals. They may be able to refer you to a good allergist.

I know there is a doctor at American Mission Hospital who specializes in allergies. His name is Dr. Stan Kwik. Check his profile here: org.bh/our-services/ent/item/dr-stan-kwik

There is also a Bahraini doctor at Al Kindi Hospital, Dr. Fadhel Sabbagh, who is supposed to be good for allergies. A friend of mine at work got treatment from him for a nagging allergy. This is his profile: alkindihospital.com/al_kindi_allergy.php

There could also be good allergists in the other major hospitals, some of which are: Royal Bahrain Hospital, Ibn Nafees Hospital, International Hospital and Bahrain Specialist Hospital.

Let us know how things work out.
