Dr Geoffrey Douch Homeopathic Studies Fund
The Faculty of Homeopathy is delighted to announce a generous scholarship scheme to assist Medical Doctors, Dentists, Osteopaths, and Veterinary Surgeons to train in medical homeopathy.
The Dr Geoffrey Douch Homeopathic Studies Fund has been established as a result of a generation legacy in memory of the late Dr Geoffrey Douch - a former Faculty of Homeopathy Member by Examination (MFHom).
Dr Geoffrey Douch MFHom
(1931-2022)
Dr Geoffrey Douch was born in 1931 and studied Medicine at University College London, qualifying as a Doctor in 1960. After this, he studied Homeopathy with Dr Margery Blackie and others at the former Royal London Homeopathic Hospital, subsequently becoming a Faculty of Homeopathy Member by Examination (MFHom) in 1964. At the time, Dr Blackie described Dr Douch as 'one of her most promising students'.
He later also studied and practised Anthroposophical Medicine. Dr Douch was a founding member of both the Anthroposophical Medical Association and the Natural Medicine Society. He was also a Medical Advisor at Weleda for many years.
Dr Douch enjoyed a long and varied medical career spanning over 40 years. During this time, he worked in both the NHS and private practice, integrating Homeopathy and Anthroposophical Medicine into his professional practice.
Dr Douch was the author of Medicine for the Whole Person - A Guide to Anthroposophical Treatment. He was also the translator for An Introduction to Anthroposophical Medicine Extending the Art of Healing, and wrote the foreword for Vaccination – A Guide For Making Personal Choices, as well as contributing to other publications.
Dr Douch had a significant impact on the lives of many people throughout his long career, and was held in very high regard by all who knew him. His quiet manner of care, compassion, and humour, coupled with his dedication to integrative medicine, is widely remembered by patients and colleagues alike.
The Dr Geoffrey Douch Homeopathic Studies Fund has been created in his name to honour the man, his commitment to homeopathy, and his generous donation to the Faculty of Homeopathy. This fund provides an opportunity for Medical Doctors, Dentists, Osteopaths, and Veterinary Surgeons; who might otherwise be unable to do so, to train in medical Homeopathy.
Purpose And Scope
