49| Dr Elize O'Reilly Paediatric Allergist. Reflux, CMPA, FPIES, food sensitivities, elimination diets, anaphylaxis and starting solids.
Welcome Dr Elize O’Reilly she specialises in paediatric immunology, autoimmune disease and across the full scope of allergic disease including food allergy, eczema, insect and drug allergy. Elize works locally on the Gold Coast and Clare has a personal connection with her as she helped manage George's FPIES allergy. Elize has expertise in managing children where there are concerns that their immune system does not work well, and she appreciates family concerns that have been labeled 'just unsettled baby'. We speak on the 'Red Flags' of food sensitivities in babies and how medical gaslighting exists, albeit with no malcontent. As a mother, Elize understands the worry that your child may have food allergies and how best to approach the introduction of allergy foods. She seeks to improve their quality of life of children with allergies and help families to manage their child’s allergies. She has a special interest in food allergen introduction in infants, and teenagers with allergies and is currently undertaking her Phd. Chloe speaks on her formula journey and we discuss the overwhelm of navigating what to buy and why. Elize gives so much great advice for new mums, mums staring solids or for those who are still navigating childhood eczema, asthma, or allergies. I'm suer we will have her back for a part two.
