I am a London-based medical doctor who has been practicing complementary medicine since 1992. I would have ended up in hospital medicine had I not been derailed by serious illness early on. I had no choice but to find solutions. That search enhanced my understanding of how things come to be as they are and made me much more resouceful.

I am trained, qualified, registered and insured in medicine, medical herbalism, homeopathy and healing.

In the past I worked at the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital, was the UK lead for a well known naturopathic protocol, co-founded one of London's first major complementary medicine centres and appeared in the media.

I take a balanced approach that spans several modalities and feel that broad oversight is important in good medical practice. This requires a teamwork approach, where the first job of a new patient is to help me really understand what has gone wrong. Typically this involves more than one ‘cause’.

Patients have a legal right to expect confidentiality from their practitioner. In order to help I usually need to ask more than your GP would so trust is important.

I find that quite often it’s important to address illness both physically and (because the determinants can be deeper) ‘energetically'.

I use a combination of knowledge from my different trainings and understanding from long experience working with often complex and chronic illnesses.

I am covered by most medical insurers who include homeopathy.

Suffering

A small part of my work is with those suffering badly inside who cannot afford treatment. This is an offer not to those who choose to spend their money on other things but to people who genuinely can't afford to pay for any help at all. I don't have a team, it's just me so I have to turn down some in order to help a few. People I can help most are those who think for themselves and have a kind of emotional intelligence. If this is you then you are welcome to email me:
Your full name, age, where you live, your mobile number. About yourself; your story and anything else. Your family story, illnesses, personalities... Your understanding of what's behind the problem i.e. what lies under the surface.
I can't guarantee to be able to help and do make a small charge for any remedies but otherwise my expertise and time are free to those I can take on.

Remote online video consultation

Many people prefer the convenience and accessibility of a Zoom appointment. There are further advantages to remote sessions than simply the convenience in fact. Afterwards I post or order any homeopathy or herbs needed.
Please see the videocall page for details.
