Visiting a Homeopath
I like to spend 1 to 1 & 1/2 hours with a patient during the first consultation. This is to establish an understanding of you as a person and all your symptoms. I will do this by asking a variety of questions some of which may seem a little strange, such as whether you have any food cravings or like thunderstorms. Sometimes I give you the options of completing a questionnaire prior to your consultation. The questionnaire gives you time to think and remember some of the details from your past, especially when considering you own and your family medical history. This is optional and we can work together without the questionnaire if you prefer. During the consultation I will also find time to answer any questions you may have.
Follow up consultations will be shorter, lasting from 30 - 45 minutes. This gives an opportunity to discuss, and then assess, how well the remedy is working and review whether any further action is required. The length of time between the initial consultation and next appointment will depend on you, the existing symptoms, and how much treatment you have already received: this can vary from days to weeks or months. The interval between any follow-ups will also be geared to your individual symptoms and need.
As I believe it is very important to feel comfortable with your homeopath I am happy to offer a free 15 minute appointment. This will give you the opportunity to meet me and ask any general questions to help you decide whether you wish to book a consultation.
At all times patient confidentiality is important and respected. As a professional homeopath I also operate according to the Society of Homeopaths Code of ethics and practice: homeopathy-soh.org/about-the-society/professional-conduct
