About Dr. Olympia Tsilochristou

Dr Olympia Tsilochristou is a Consultant Allergist at the UK's largest Department of Allergy at Guy's and St Thomas' Foundation Trust in London. She has more than ten years of expertise in the field of allergy.

Dr Tsilochristou graduated from medical school in 2005 in Greece and completed advanced specialty training in allergy in 2014. She earned her PhD in allergic rhinitis, with an emphasis on local allergic rhinitis, a kind of allergic rhinitis that may go undiagnosed due to negative skin prick and blood testing for respiratory allergens. She then worked for a year as a researcher in molecular allergology at Charite University in Berlin, Germany, before joining the research teams led by Professors Lack, du Toit, and Till at King's College London. During this time, she examined the links between food allergy and eczema and undertook clinical trials on peanut oral immunotherapy and a preclinical trial looking into vaccines against peanut, egg, and milk allergy. Her work was subsequently published in prestigious peer-reviewed allergy publications.

Dr Tsilochristou has extensive experience in allergic rhinitis and allergen immunotherapy for allergic rhinitis, and has co-authored the European Guidelines on Allergen Immunotherapy for Allergic Rhinitis. She is also one of two clinicians at Guy's Hospital who run the Food Allergy Clinic where she reviews adults with food allergies, including those who suffer from eczema, with the goal of identifying potential food triggers for their eczema.

She also reviews a large number of patients with urticaria and hypersensitivity reactions to medicines and wasp and bee stings. 

Dr Tsilochristou has long wait lists but can occassionally provide urgent consultations. Please contact her Office at info@myallergyclinic.uk if you want to arrange for this.

Dr. Olympia Tsilochristou was really lovely and kind. She was happy to explain things in detail and to break things down. She made sure that I was comfortable with what was going on and gave me peace of mind. I also learnt quite a lot as well.

Good initial appointment however when I went to book a follow up they wanted to charge a "cancellation" fee for an appointment I tried to postpone due to baby's surgery as it was impossible to fill it at late notice. It was filled and I offered to still attend in any case when made aware of the fees. Terrible experience

Thank you for providing your feedback. I am pleased to know that you found your initial appointment satisfactory. However, I regret to learn of your dissatisfaction with our cancellation fee policy, which, for your awareness, was communicated to you on 4 occasions between the time you agreed to your appointment date and 1 day before your consultation. We fully recognise that unforeseen circumstances, such as your baby's surgery, can lead to unexpected scheduling difficulties. Our policy is designed to maintain impartiality and ensure appointment availability for all patients. While the Practice Management Team endeavors to accommodate cancellations or rescheduling requests with short notice (eg you emailed to cancel on a Sunday with your appointment taking place the next day), we are unable to waive fees for last-minute changes, as they affect the Teams capacity to provide services to other patients. Thank you once again for sharing your concerns. Sincerely, Dr Tsilochristou

I had an exceptional experience with Dr Olympia. She is incredibly knowledgeable about various treatments, including immunotherapy. Her clinic letter is very comprehensive, summarising the consultation, test results, and advice in combating allergy symptoms. Dr Olympia is attentive and responsive, efficiently addressing follow-up questions via email. Her friendly approach and willingness to listen made me feel comfortable and well-cared for throughout my treatment. I highly recommend Dr Olympia for anyone seeking outstanding allergy care.

Dr Olympia helped me understand better what is going on with my skin and allergies. She explained what the process of the test was and helped me get to the bottom of what I was suffering. She has given me information to improve my life living with eczema and allergies. So hopefully I can be more mindful of what I'm eating and the environmental factors that are affecting me. Thank you!
