The Center of Allergy and Clinical Immunology under the Vinmec Healthcare System has officially been chosen as a World Allergy Organization (WAO) Centre of Excellence (CoE), making it the first medical facility in Vietnam to receive this prestigious recognition.
This milestone marks a significant advancement in the nation's allergy and clinical immunology, aligning Vietnamese healthcare with international standards.
Prior to the CoE recognition by WAO, Vinmec's Allergy and Clinical Immunology Center had been the first medical facility in Vietnam to receive dual recognitions in specialised allergy care, including: ADCARE (Atopic Dermatitis Centers of Reference and Excellence) and UCARE (Urticaria Centers of Reference and Excellence).
Vinmec's Allergy and Clinical Immunology Center is also the first and only healthcare provider in Vietnam licensed by the Ministry of Health to deploy biologic therapies and advanced immunological treatments for severe chronic allergic and immunological disorders, such as bronchial asthma, atopic dermatitis, chronic urticaria, allergic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps and prurigo nodularis.
Vinmec utilises genetic testing to screen for drug hypersensitivity risks, thereby personalising the clinical pathway and enhancing patient safety, and applying monoclonal antibody therapies, a cutting-edge and specialised treatment modality typically available only at leading international medical institutions.
