Vinmec Recognized As Vietnam’s First Allergy & Clinical Immunology Center of Excellence

HANOI, VIETNAM – Media OutReach Newswire – 14 April 2025 – The Center of Allergy and Clinical Immunology under the Vinmec Healthcare System has officially been chosen as a World Allergy Organization (WAO) Center 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.

Vinmec is currently at the forefront of utilizing genetic testing to screen for drug hypersensitivity risks — thereby personalizing the clinical pathway and enhancing patient safety — and applying monoclonal antibody therapies, a cutting-edge and specialized treatment modality typically available only at leading international medical institutions. Additionally, Vinmec has developed comprehensive diagnostic and management protocols for primary immunodeficiency disorders, offering patients early detection, appropriate intervention, and long-term care.

Vinmec now stands among other prestigious WAO Centers of Excellence in the region, including the National University of Singapore, Yonsei University College of Medicine (South Korea), University of Tokyo Hospital (Japan), and Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine (China).

The WAO’s recognition follows Vinmec’s previous establishment of three internationally accredited Centers of Excellence in Cardiology, Oncology, and Orthopedics & Sports Medicine. These achievements reflect Vinmec’s strategic commitment to building globally recognized centers of excellence that deliver innovative, world-class healthcare solutions to Vietnamese and international patients alike.
