Your clinical consultation

At your first appointment, a comprehensive medical history is taken, including about your lifestyle and diet. Where appropriate, a physical examination is carried out, which may confirm or complement the diagnosis of your General Practitioner (GP). A full range of private medical tests may be requested, should further investigations become necessary.

Please bring with you any prescribed medication, herbal supplements or results of any available medical exam, which assist in evaluating pharmacological interactions and contraindications, particularly if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. A suitable treatment plan is agreed with you to suit your health priorities and lifestyle choices.

Follow-up appointments may be required after a fortnight and subsequent visits may be every four, six or eight weeks, depending on your needs. If your health is stable, you will be posted repeat prescriptions for up to two months.

Your prescription herbal medicine will consist of the best quality extracts available in terms of purity, concentration of active ingredients, knowledge of traditional use and scientific data. You may be supplied with tablets, capsules, tinctures, fluid extracts, herbal teas, juices, distilled waters, aromatherapy essential oils or creams.
