By Grace Rhoomes.

It’s Tuesday and I’m getting ready for another day in the clinic in Kasoa. Clinic has been a bit ‘quiet’ of late, but today feels exceptional as am expecting ‘grandma’. Not had a review with grandma for about 6 weeks. Although my student has been reviewing regularly and reporting back to me, it is his case after all! Looking forward to seeing grandma. Really looking forward to seeing her Continue reading →

Angie Metzger in Ghana Oct 2011

Posted on November 25, 2011 by admin

Here are some images from Ghana and the training course we just concluded in Ghana. It was attended by 4 visitors from UK and 15 Ghanians. The tutors were the two Doctors Bhattachareya from Kolkata, India.

The course was very hands on. In one village we saw up to 250 patients. It called for very quick and decisive prescribing by our teachers. Luckily we got opportunities later in the course to learn by discussing the specifics of many cases.

My Ghana Study Trip – Catie Sharples

Posted on November 24, 2011 by admin

The study trip to Ghana was life-changing for me.

I had never been to Africa before, and had never worked for a homeopathic charity before either. So it was a big experience, the effects of which will last until I am able to go again!
The course itself was beneficial. I enjoyed studying with the Doctors Battacharyea, and found their complementary way of teaching differential diagnosis and materia medica very appealing. For me there was just the right amount of clinical experience and lecture time. I especially benefited from the clinical setting. Although treatment decisions were made quickly, there was often time to discuss a case later in the day, and also to talk about related disease processes and materia medica. It was amazing how both doctors could lecture on the spot in such depth, without any preparation time. I also enjoyed taking cases myself, and having some supervision from the doctors if I felt I needed it. Continue reading →

Return To Ghana – Theresa Partington

Posted on November 22, 2011 by admin

In November this year (2011) I returned to Ghana to work with the Ghana Homeopathy Project after a gap of three years.

The project has evolved in the intervening years in some very positive directions. My trip this time was divided into two distinct parts. The first week I spent in the peace and calm of Mafi Seva ( now on mains electricity) watching the daily routine going on around me, photographing the chickens, lizard,s goats and the children with huge bundles of sticks on their heads who mysteriously traverse the compound from time to time and ,of course, seeing patients.

A great big thank you to all who contributed – We couldn’t do it without you!

I recently returned from Ghana.

Emperor - For further homeopathic studies

I was much inspired by our trainee homeopath and clinical director of the Mafi-Seva Community Health Centre, Emperor. A small team of homeopaths and 15 of our Ghanaian students joined to offer homeopathic treatment to the rural communities of the lower Volta region. We saw over 400 patients, some with acute presentations and many suffering from chronic complaints. Many good results have been reported and new patients are arriving daily at the Mafi-Seva Community Health Centre. Continue reading →

Soroush Ebrahimi

Soroush Ebrahimi – One of our trustees

Born in 1949 in Iran, Soroush showed an early interest in biology and zoology and things medical.  However, when he arrived in UK aged 16 he faced major language difficulties and after a year had to drop biology so that he could concentrate on physics, chemistry and mathematics.  This meant that he could not study medicine at university.

Soroush studied Paper Science at University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST).  He then followed this with a post graduate diploma in Production Management and worked in the paper industry until 1982.  He then formed his own exporting company and concentrated on that.
