Dr. Marcela Rodrigues Alvares Pimenta

Dr. Marcela Rodrigues Alvares Pimenta is an allergy and immunology specialist with approximately 15 years of clinical experience. She trained at Fundacao Tecnico Educacional Souza Marques in Brazil and completed her paediatrics residency at Hospital Federal de Bonsucesso. She holds specialist certification from ASBAI (Brazilian Association of Allergy and Immunology) and spent time as a visiting student at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, strengthening her international perspective.

Dr. Pimenta treats both children and adults with a wide range of allergic conditions, including hay fever and allergic rhinitis, asthma, eczema-like skin conditions (atopic dermatitis), contact dermatitis, hives, severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis), and food and drug allergies. She performs diagnostic skin prick and patch tests to identify allergens and offers immunotherapy (allergy shots or tablets) to desensitise patients over time.

She has published case reports presented at allergy meetings in Brazil and Europe, and worked in private allergy clinics in Brazil before relocating to the UAE. She is a good fit if you need thorough allergy testing and long-term management of allergic conditions, particularly if you prefer a doctor experienced with both paediatric and adult patients.
