Paediatrics
About
He has recently been appointed to become a Honorary Clinical Lecturer in Allergy at Warwick Medical School.
He has over 14 years' experience in Paediatrics and over 7 years in Paediatric Allergy.
Currently he leads the Paediatric Allergy Services at University Hospitals Coventry & Warwickshire.
Dr Costa runs several allergy clinics in both Coventry, Rugby and Leamington Spa - focusing on the diagnosis and management of Food Allergy, Hayfever, Allergic Rhinitis, Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria and Angioedema, Eczema and Asthma.
He also has a keen interest in Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), running a dedicated clinic to it.
His main focus of interest in Allergy is in immunotherapy and desensitization, mainly to house dust mites and pollens - both sublingual and subcutaneous.
José is the co-author of a study titled "Increase in Multiple Nut Reactivity with Increasing Age is Not an Artefact of Incomplete Allergy Testing", which explored the introduction of nuts into the an infant/child's diet. This research found that not
introducing nuts that children are not allergic to, will increase their risk of developing allergy to those nuts later in life.
Outside of the clinic, Dr Costa has a keen interest in researching and teaching paediatric allergies.
