Appointments

From a free 10 minute chat, to a full hour consultation, choose what works for you.

Initial consultation

The clinic and dispensary are at my home in Newton Ferrers.  

An initial  consultation takes about an hour: properly discussing all aspects of your health, taking your blood pressure and any appropriate examination.  Home visits are possible within the Plymouth/South Hams area.

Home visits are possible within the Plymouth/South Hams area if you have limited transport, I can come to you. On-line option (Zoom or WhatsApp) especially for follow ups, once we have already met in person.

Follow up appointments

Follow up appointments – usually 30 minutes to review progress, continue discussing your condition and adjust the prescription when necessary.

Repeat prescriptions – just phone, email or message and I can pop them in the post to you.  This incurs a small dispensing charge, packaging and postage.

Remedies

For general coughs, colds, aches and pains, with a few questions I have some ‘off the shelf ‘ remedies, including cough syrups (Elderberry/Thyme & liquorice/Rose base), Post-viral tonic, Soothing skin ointment, Warming muscle rub, Sleepy tea, Hay-fever tea and Milk thistle capsules (liver support).

Safety

Herbal medicine has an outstanding safety record.  Herbalists grow or source high quality medicines.  Plants contain a wide array of phyto chemicals and are far less likely to cause side effects than pharmaceutical medicines. We are trained in any herb/drug interactions and work in a collaborative way with other health practitioners.
