Immunologist Consultation

Immunologist in Kyiv – Consultation with an Immunologist at Vivere Clinic

The immune system is one of the most complex mechanisms in the human body. It provides protection against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, regulates inflammatory processes, participates in tissue repair, and maintains a balance between protective immune responses and tolerance to the body's own cells. Disorders of the immune system may manifest as frequent infections, chronic fatigue, allergic reactions, autoimmune diseases, as well as neurological and neuroimmune symptoms.

If you are experiencing such symptoms, a consultation with an immunologist can help determine the cause of the disorder, assess the condition of your immune system, and develop an individualized diagnostic and treatment plan.

Who Is an Immunologist and When Should You See One?

An immunologist is a medical specialist who diagnoses, prevents, and treats diseases associated with dysfunction of the immune system.

An immunologist evaluates cellular and humoral immunity, identifies primary and secondary immunodeficiencies, autoimmune diseases, chronic infectious processes, immune regulation disorders, and other conditions that may affect a patient's health.

At Vivere Clinic, special attention is given to patients with neuroimmune and neuroinflammatory disorders, chronic fatigue syndrome, PANS/PANDAS, autoimmune encephalitis, neurodevelopmental disorders, autism, epilepsy, and post-infectious complications.

A consultation with an immunologist may be recommended for both children and adults who have symptoms suggestive of immune system dysfunction.

Indications for an Immunologist Consultation

You should consider consulting an immunologist in the following situations:

  • frequent bacterial, viral, or fungal infections;
  • recurrent ear infections, sinusitis, bronchitis, or pneumonia;
  • prolonged or severe infectious diseases;
  • recurrent herpes infections;
  • enlarged lymph nodes of unknown origin;
  • chronic fatigue and reduced work capacity;
  • persistent inflammatory processes;
  • autoimmune diseases;
  • allergic reactions;
  • suspected primary or secondary immunodeficiency;
  • frequent exacerbations of chronic diseases;
  • PANS/PANDAS syndrome;
  • autoimmune disorders affecting the nervous system;
  • developmental delays and neurodevelopmental disorders that may be associated with neuroinflammation;
  • long-term consequences of viral and bacterial infections.

In many cases, an immunologist consultation helps identify the cause of symptoms that have remained unexplained despite standard medical evaluations.

Immunologist Consultation Before Vaccination

Another important reason to consult an immunologist is preparation for vaccination. Many parents are concerned about vaccinating their child due to autoimmune diseases, allergic reactions, neurodevelopmental disorders, frequent infections, or previous adverse reactions to vaccines.

In most cases, vaccination is a safe and effective method of preventing infectious diseases. However, some patients may benefit from a prior assessment of immune system function to identify individual characteristics and potential risk factors.

During the consultation, the immunologist performs a detailed review of the patient's medical history, evaluates previous illnesses, existing immunological disorders, and any prior vaccine-related reactions.

If necessary, the following tests may be recommended:

  • immunogram;
  • measurement of immunoglobulin levels;
  • assessment of cellular and humoral immunity;
  • inflammatory marker testing;
  • autoantibody testing;
  • allergy status evaluation;
  • assessment of post-vaccination immunity to specific infections.

This approach allows the physician to provide personalized vaccination recommendations and reduce uncertainty for parents.

What Tests Can an Immunologist Order?

Modern laboratory and instrumental diagnostic methods are used to evaluate immune system function.

Depending on the clinical situation, an immunologist may recommend:

  • an extended immunogram;
  • lymphocyte subset analysis;
  • measurement of IgG, IgA, IgM, and IgE immunoglobulin levels;
  • cytokine profile testing;
  • autoantibody testing;
  • systemic inflammation markers;
  • laboratory diagnostics for bacterial, viral, and parasitic infections;
  • assessment of cellular and humoral immunity;
  • genetic testing when primary immunodeficiency is suspected;
  • evaluation of neuroimmune and autoimmune processes.

In complex clinical cases, a comprehensive approach is used, combining immunological, infectious, genetic, metabolic, and neuroimmunological investigations.

How an Immunologist Appointment in Kyiv Takes Place

An immunologist consultation at VIVERE Clinic in Kyiv begins with a thorough medical history review.

The physician evaluates:

  • the frequency and nature of infectious diseases;
  • family medical history;
  • previous infections;
  • the presence of allergic and autoimmune diseases;
  • results of previous examinations;
  • the child's developmental history;
  • possible infectious, autoimmune, or metabolic disease triggers.

Special attention is paid to the relationship between infectious processes and the body's immune response, as this mechanism often underlies the development of neuroimmune and autoimmune conditions.

Following the consultation, an individualized diagnostic and treatment plan is developed. If necessary, other specialists may be involved in the diagnostic process, including a neurologist, neuroimmunologist, infectious disease specialist, geneticist, gastroenterologist, endocrinologist, and other clinic experts.

Протягом останнього року консультувалися з Макаром Васильовичем Шейко з приводу діагнозу та подальшої тактики лікування доньки. Отримали вичерпні відповіді на свої запитання, та насправді кваліфіковану допомогу. Можу сміливо радити лікаря як фахівця, що призначить лише потрібний обсяг досліджень, максимально глибоко та експертно оцінить результати - вважаю, саме в цьому полягає основна цінність консультації. І найголовніше - при зовнішній стриманості та небагатослівності, Макар Васильович дійсно переймається результатом лікування і прагне допомогти дитині, а не просто призначити препарати за протоколом. Щиро вдячна лікарю та клініці, сподіваюсь, з Вашою допомогою зможемо отримати добрі результати.

Світлана

Хочеться щиро подякувати Шейко Макару Васильовичу! За допомогу в вирішенні, лікуванні та правильному встановленню діагнозу нашої хвороби! Бо як виявилось сама більша проблема в тому щоб правильно встановити саме діагноз. Пред історія така .В дитини (14 років) в один прекрасний день опускається повіка, діагнозів в Охматдиті нам ставили багато, робили безліч обстежень але все марно ,поки шукали підтвердження, повіка самостійно піднялася. На цьому нам сказали все, пройшло і нічого не бачимо, можливо перехідний вік, як стане гірше звертайтесь. Так через місяць стало гірше, опускається ще одна повіка і додається двоїння в очах, швидка стомлюваність. Що ми пережили один Бог знає. Слава Богу що нам порадили клініку VІVERE, там ми потрапили на прийом до Макара Васильовича, чесно за пів години нам попередньо поставили діагноз (ми 4 місяці бігали по різних спеціалістах) а саме Мітохондріальна дисфункція, потрібно ще було доздавати аналізи. І відразу назначили лікування. Моєму подиву не було меж після першого прийому ліків призначених в дитини відразу стабілізувався стан очей, на протязі тижня пройшло двоїння (диплопія), дитина ожила. Відповідно ми ще лікуємось але дуже дякуємо за компетентність, уважність і правильний підхід.

Леся

Лікуємо нашого хлопчика і бачимо позитивні результати, хлопчик став краще розмовляти, з'явився апетит, з'явилось бажання пробувати нові продукти, легше реагує на все, легше домовлятися. Дякую лікарю Володимиру Михайловичу Стефанишину.

Юрій

В клинике уютно и светло. Приятно удивляет всегда быстрое реагирование на вопросы и просьбы девушек-регистраторов, их доброжелательное отношение. Ни один вопрос в вайбере не остался без ответа. Дважды были с сыном на консультации у Шейко Макара Васильевича. Неординарный, профессиональный и, в то же время, душевный, можно сказать дружеский подход, к решению проблем пациента, у Макара Васильевича. Также 2 года назад мы были на приеме у иммунолога Мельник Леси Игоревны. Остались тоже очень довольны. Впечатлило глубокое понимание проблемы, а также достаточно доступное объяснение и интересное изложение информации.

Елена Моцарь

Доброго дня! Нарешті я написала відгук, вже півроку з вами) Я мама дитини, яка до 18 років мала купу діагнозів, які і близько не мали відношення до нашої хвороби! Уявіть, скільки часу було витрачено... лікування ніяке (звісно) не допомагало, а ставало ще гірше. Доки нам не порекомендували Шейко Макар Васильовича! Сказати, що Він нам допоміг , це нічого не сказати! Макар Васильович врятував мою Софію! Завдяки правильній діагностиці, ми маємо НАШ діагноз (рідке орфанне захворювання) і правильне лікування. Я бачу поліпшення, моя дитина як заново народилася! Макар Васильович - це дбайлива і дуже чутна Людина, якій довіряєш! На прийомі немає оцього бар'єру лікар-пацієнт, ви як прийшли до друга, який вас підбадьорить, вислухає. Дуже рекомендую!
