French term or phrase: Allergologue exclusif à Cannes
Hello!

This is taken from an allergist's CV and I would appreciate some help with translating it:

Allergologue exclusif à Cannes de 19xx à 19xx

My attempt is 'private allergist'

Merci D'avance ;)

Explanation:
I am not sure that my translation gives the idea exaxctly, but I think that "allergologue exclusif" means that this person's only area of practice is treating allergies. (Some allergists treat other ailments as well).

agree  Carolyn Yohn: Specialist=doctor, whereas practitioner=user of a technique/program.. More google hits for "allergy specialist" than "allergy practitioner," too (fyi, tho Google is not all-telling).
