In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Sandy Dinsdale, who shared her journey from being a general practitioner to becoming a Homeopath. It all began with a remarkable case of rapid wound healing that piqued her interest in Homeopathy. Over time, her curiosity and desire to help patients led her to study Homeopathy alongside her medical practice. Sandy discusses the synergy she observed between Homeopathy and conventional medicine, particularly in mitigating side effects of treatments like chemotherapy. We also explored the challenges Homeopathy faces in gaining acceptance within the medical community and the importance of a unified approach to presenting Homeopathy as a complementary, rather than an alternative, form of medicine.
