FAQs
How do I find a qualified homeopath in the UK?
1
Finding a qualified homeopath in the UK involves looking at their training, experience, and professional qualifications. Homeopaths may train through recognised colleges, and some are also medically qualified doctors who have undertaken extensive postgraduate training in homeopathy.
When choosing a homeopath, it is important to consider:
How long they have been practising homeopathy
Whether they hold recognised qualifications
Their experience in treating a wide range of health conditions
Whether they have a medical background, particularly for chronic or complex issues
Dr Ayiesha Malik has been practising homeopathy since 2013. She holds the LFHom qualification from the Faculty of Homeopathy, has completed the MFHom course, and is due to sit the MFHom examination. Alongside her medical training as a GP, this provides a strong foundation for safe and integrative homeopathic care.
Over the years, Dr Ayiesha Malik has successfully managed many patients using homeopathy, supporting conditions such as:
Eczema and other skin conditions
Menstrual and hormonal issues
Sinus and recurrent respiratory problems
Behavioural and emotional concerns

Patients looking for a qualified homeopath in the UK, particularly one who combines medical expertise with a holistic, root-cause approach, often choose a medical homeopath to ensure treatment is both personalised and safe.
What does a homeopath do?
2
A homeopath works by taking a whole-person approach to health, focusing on physical symptoms alongside emotional wellbeing, lifestyle, and individual health history. Rather than treating a diagnosis alone, homeopathy aims to support the body’s natural healing processes using personalised remedies.
A homeopath typically:
Takes a detailed history of physical symptoms and overall health
Explores emotional health, stress levels, sleep, and lifestyle factors
Prescribes individualised homeopathic remedies
Reviews progress over time and adjusts treatment as needed
Homeopathy is intended to work alongside conventional medical care, not replace it. Homeopaths do not replace an NHS GP, hospital treatment, or emergency care. Patients should always seek urgent medical attention when required and continue prescribed medical treatment unless advised otherwise by their doctor.
Many people use homeopathy as a complementary approach, particularly for long-term or recurring symptoms, while remaining under the care of their NHS GP or medical specialist.
As a GP and medical homeopath, Dr Ayiesha Malik integrates homeopathy safely with conventional medicine, ensuring that homeopathic treatment supports — rather than substitutes — appropriate medical care.

How often are homeopathy reviews needed, and how long does it take to see results?
4
The frequency of homeopathy reviews and the time it takes to see results vary depending on the individual, the condition being treated, and how long symptoms have been present.
In general:
Acute or short-term conditions may improve within days or weeks and often require fewer follow-up appointments.
Chronic or long-standing conditions usually need a longer period of treatment, with gradual improvement over time.
Patients are typically reviewed:
Every 4–6 weeks initially for chronic conditions
Less frequently once symptoms begin to improve
On an individual basis, depending on response to treatment
Reviews allow the homeopath to assess progress, adjust remedies if needed, and ensure treatment remains appropriate and safe.
Unlike many conventional medications, homeopathy is not usually taken indefinitely. Once symptoms have resolved and health has stabilised, homeopathic treatment can often be reduced or stopped altogether, rather than continued long term. The aim is to support the body’s natural healing processes, not to create dependence on ongoing treatment.
Homeopathy is commonly used alongside conventional medical care, and patients are advised to continue any prescribed medications unless changes are made in consultation with their NHS GP or specialist.
As a GP and medical homeopath, Dr Ayiesha Malik monitors progress carefully, ensuring that homeopathic treatment is integrated safely and reviewed appropriately, with the goal of reducing the need for ongoing treatment where possible.
