Hello…
Gentle & Subtle medicine.
I graduated from Westminster University after successfully completing a BSc (Hons) Health Science degree in homeopathy. Prior to my homeopathic studies my full-time career was nursing. I have spent over twenty years in the sphere of conventional medicine, specialising and working in the field of intensive care for the last fifteen years. I still nurse in intensive care at the Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel, but on a part-time basis. As a homeopathic practitioner I personally find my conventional medical background an asset. My advanced body of knowledge and experience allows me to make a detailed assessment of physiology function and quickly identify symptoms that warrant a conventional medical referral and those that would benefit from homeopathy. I am also in a position to suggest specific tests and investigations that may help to explain symptoms if necessary.
You may be asking why I chose to pursue another career in complementary medicine with a specific interest in homeopathy.
At 12 years old I was diagnosed with psoriasis, which is a chronic skin complaint. The physical symptoms of such a condition became the bane and embarrassment of my life. I spent many years applying steroids to my skin and attending the Royal London Hospital for PUVA sun bed treatments. Over a period of time I realised that conventional medicine was unable to provide an enduring benefit and I was also concerned about the side effects of my treatment. In a means to find alternative help I researched complementary medicine and obviously homeopathy was the one of choice. I personally witnessed, as a patient the enduring benefits this form of healthcare offered and I have never looked back. Gone are the days of frequent hospital appointments, the side effects of my treatments and the discomfort of my physical symptoms.

My homeopathic studies made me aware of the many benefits that homeopathy can offer for a vast number of medical conditions without it being a ‘last resort’. The increasing awareness and acceptance of homeopathy amongst the general public provided a favourable time for my change in career. Furthermore and more importantly, it was an ideal career change for me as it allows me to maintain patient contact.
