Libby is a Brisbane based paediatric allergist and a mum of two young children, bringing both clinical expertise and real-world parenting experience to every consultation. She understands firsthand how stressful and overwhelming childhood allergies can be for families, and she prioritises creating a calm, supportive environment where children and parents feel genuinely heard.
Appointments are unrushed and highly interactive, with a strong focus on building rapport with your child and working closely with parents. A comprehensive medical, dietary and family history is always taken to fully understand each child's unique allergy profile, triggers, and day-to-day challenges. Education and reassurance are central to her approach, ensuring parents leave with clear explanations, practical management plans, and confidence in next steps. With a compassionate, family-centred approach, she works alongside parents to help children stay safe, thrive, and enjoy everyday life as fully as possible.
Libby has extensive experience diagnosing, consulting on and managing a wide range of childhood allergies, including:
- Peanut and tree nut allergies
- Cow's milk allergy and lactose intolerance
- Egg allergy
- Wheat and other food allergies
- Multiple food allergies
- Eczema-associated food sensitivities
