Consultations with Dr. Dupree Homeopathic treatment differs from the treatment in conventional practices in part because it does not rely on a conventional diagnosis. The selection of the remedy is based on the symptoms of the patient on all levels – mental, emotional, functional, physical, pathological , current and historic.  This difference gives the Homeopath a bit more latitude in the approach to the patient. Optimally, the patient will be able to be presented for a physical examination and the care giver can have an in-person consultation with the Homeopath. The initial visit in these circumstances (if the patient is presented for treatment of chronic disease) consists of the physical examination, discussions on the hygiene of the patient, on the rare occasion sampling for laboratory tests, and setting up a game plan for therapeutics. Once the hygienic changes are made and the patient reestablished a baseline of symptoms minimally complicated by external factors, we begin Homeopathic therapy with an detailed history of the patient’s symptoms, an analysis of the patient with these symptoms as a guide to the Homeopathic remedy for the patient, and a plan for evaluating the patient’s response to the remedy. From this point, the patient’s response to the remedy dictates our further action.Just less than optimal is when the patient and care giver live at too great a distance to physically come to the consultation. In this case, we can use a local primary care veterinarian to be the “eyes, ears, and hands” for physical exam and any laboratory sampling (and because it is good to keep a local veterinarian on your team). We can then take the detailed history over the telephone and supplement it with the information from the primary care. With this approach, the patient’s case can be analyzed and advice can be given on remedy choices and dosing procedures. Follow up assessments on the action of the remedy may also be made over the telephone. For questions and to simply relay information, email is an excellent option.
