depends with the cost - we had DS referred due to eczema and we didn't have to pay (only 2 pead allergy people in Adelaide), had to wait about 5 months from initial phone call by me for the appointment. SIL had to wait 6mths for her DS to get tested at the same place.
DS had the pr icks on his back about 20 from memory. Took about an hour for the testing & about 1/2 of consultation with allergy specialist either side of the testing - we got to do it all on the one day.
Ours was over $300 I can't remember how much we got back. We went privately and waited couple months I think for an appt.
I think alot places see how serious the allergy is and base an appt on that.
