“Good Doctors” Are Those Who Are Also Homeopathic Physicians! A paper in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine reported on a study of German Doctors which set out to see if there is a connection between practicing homeopathy and being “a good doctor”? The researchers started by identifying what factors make a good doctor, from both the patient’s and the physician’s point-of-view. They then studied a number of doctors who were also trained as homeopaths (29) using both Observational Research and interviews with patients (20) and with doctors (4). Their conclusions are that the availability of time, a holistic approach, and high physician empathy lead to high patient satisfaction and concluded that homeopathic physicians are probably more likely to exhibit these characteristics.
