Who comes to see me and why
Patients come to see me for an enormous number of reasons, as individual as each person is. People often come with several different complaints that would be seen as unconnected by conventional medicine, as well as a vague feeling that things are not quite right.
An audit of my practice shows that many patients coming with a diagnosis from the Doctor of the following conditions, had self referred:
acne, allergy, amenorrhoea, anxiety, appetite loss, arthritis, childhood behavioral problems, chronic fatigue, colic infantile, conjunctivitis, constipation, chronic cough, earache, eczema, endometriosis, epilepsy, fibroid, glue ear, hay fever, herpes, high blood pressure, impotence, infertility, influenza, insomnia, irritable bowel, menopause, migraine, night terrors, palpitations, pregnancy, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, scabies, side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, sore throats, tonsillitis, vertigo and warts, vomiting and diarrhoea.
If symptoms are serious, prolonged or unusual, you should contact a qualified medical practitioner without delay.
Homeopaths regard all the symptoms of a patient's condition - mental, emotional and physical - as evidence of a unified effort to resolve an inner disturbance and return to a state of balance. Homeopaths select and prescribe remedies, which on evidence from a variety of sources, including previous testing on healthy people [no animal testing] and clinical experience, are known to produce similar symptom pictures to those of the patient. The prescribed similar remedies then stimulate and assist the patient's own natural healing efforts. (SoH)

Testimonials from previous clients of mine (these testimonials do not represent evidence, but the personal opinion of the patients that I have treated) , where they write about their experience of homeopathy
'I first consulted Mike when I had been suffering with some nasty post viral symptoms, including fatigue, dizziness and muscle aches. His calm, relaxed manner immediately put me at ease and I found it really easy to talk about my problems. After taking the remedy, I noticed a huge improvement almost immediately and not just with my physical symptoms, I was sleeping better and feeling a general sense of well-being. I have recently consulted Mike about a different problem and again have experienced a dramatic, immediate improvement in my symptoms!
I would recommend homeopathy to anyone as it seems to treat the person as a whole, and get to the cause of symptoms not just mask them as some conventional medicines do.'
Mrs Fiona Doyle, age 38
Ms.J.Knight of South West London wrote:
"I had been self-treating with homeopathic remedies for minor ailments over a number of years and had experienced mixed reactions sometimes effective, sometimes not. I have always suspected that my analysis of what I needed was flawed. In retrospect it is clear that I did not really look at the root cause of particular ailments.
When I first consulted Mike Andrews I had just begun a course of radiotherapy and I felt that I needed help that was not toxic to the body due to the invasive treatment that was being given to me and which was leaving me feeling pretty ill.
I was surprised at first by the kind of questions that Mike asked me, no practitioner had ever asked such questions before. In fact by the end of the of one and a half hour consultation Mike knew more about my medical history and family history, my current thoughts and feelings and my future concerns than my closest friend. He certainly understood a great deal more about me as a person than the GP that I had been consulting for over ten years. I was very impressed by this and confident that whatever was prescribed was based on a range of information which was not confined solely to symptoms or to the usual hurried few minutes in the doctor's surgery.
Since that initial meeting with Mike, I have found that subsequent consultations are always based on a previously learned knowledge about me and my medical condition. In this way, past symptoms and conditions are talked about in relation to the current reason for consultation. This I find to be a consistency that is sadly lacking in my relationship with the medical profession in general.
With the experience of meeting Mike over the past two years and all that I have read about homeopathy, I do believe that homeopathic remedies for treating illnesses are preferable to those medicines generally prescribed by GPs and which have become less and less desirable to someone like me who had received some very drastic cancer treatment prior to this."
Mrs.C.B. Camberley wrote:
"I took the prescribed remedy and it had an almost immediate effect both physically and mentally.
Another problem I had was that for over 20 years I've suffered with hay fever, and all the discomfort that this allergy brings. But this year after taking a homeopathic remedy that was prescribed; I was totally amazed when these symptoms almost completely disappeared. For the first time I needed no medication or inhalers from the doctor, throughout the summer.
My family, who have seen me suffer year after year, were really impressed, and so was I.
In fact homeopathy has helped me greatly and I now feel so much more in control of my health.
From being sckeptical there is no doubt in my mind that homeopathy really works for me."
My experience of M.E. or 'chronic fatigue' has been ongoing and complicated over 12 years and after initially being ill with glandular fever, liver infection and pneumonia. When I saw my Homeopath I was experiencing a deterioration in my condition after a previous period of gradual improvement. I was relieved that not only was my illness taken seriously, but his approach was holistic taking into account my emotional and psychological well-being as well.
Over time there has been a gradual improvement, particularly with a return to a degree of mental stamina that was missing previously. I can definitely say there is a change, an improvement, in my whole condition affecting some of my symptoms - it is a long haul., but feel I am at least on route to progressing to a state where I may eventually be well again.

Mrs A Kelly of North London wrote these few words about her experience of using homeopathy.
''Approximately six years ago I developed a skin condition affecting only my hands. The skin appeared to thin, causing splitting and bleeding with every movement. Various ointments, balms and preparations were used for a year without any improvement. I was referred to a hospital and the dermatologist tried further creams, coal tar dressings, lamp therapy with again no improvement. Dressing, washing and all household chores became almost impossible. I was recommended to Mr. Mike Andrews who prescribed three tablets, within 48 hours the healing process had started. The improvement was rapid and within two weeks my hands were back to normal. This cure has been maintained to the present day.''
And finally Mr D Salmons, a top London Marketing Consultant wrote:
"I am not someone who usually takes any interest in alternative therapies. I suspected that the effect must be mostly placebo, but given that it had clearly worked for my colleague and my sister-in-law, felt it might be worth a try. I now wish I had sought homeopathic treatment sooner. I would recommend it unhesitatingly to anyone who, like me is dubious about anything that sounds alternative..."
I was featured in a Daily Mail article 'Who would you trust to look after your health?' in July 1998. Of five practitioners (Chinese Herbalist, Nutritionist, Homeopath, Conventional Doctor) I achieved the highest overall score in the following areas: Bedside Manner, How much did I learn?, Likelihood of going back, Were the right questions asked?
