Dr. Shefali Naidu

Homeopathic PhysicianAuthorResearcher

A homoeopathic physician trained at Maharashtra University of Health Sciences, Dr. Shefali Naidu founded Adishi Homeo Clinic in Wardha and wrote Homoeopathy Demystified so that the principles of homoeopathy could be understood outside the consulting room. She is now based in Chennai, and hopes to continue pure research into the roots of the discipline.

01

A little about Dr. Shefali.

Once a sceptic of homoeopathy, she became convinced of it through clinical work, close reading of Hahnemann, and the questions patients actually ask.

She holds a Bachelor of Homoeopathic Medicine and Surgery from Antarbharti Homoeopathic Medical College, Nagpur, and a postgraduate diploma in Clinical Research. Before founding her own clinic in 2017, she spent four years as a consultant at Lonare Homeo Clinic, Wardha.

The book

Homoeopathy Demystified answers the questions most often put to a homoeopath. It discusses what the discipline can offer, and it states the boundaries just as clearly.

Cover of Homoeopathy Demystified: A Clarified Perspective for All, by Dr. Shefali Naidu

A Clarified Perspective for All

Homoeopathy Demystified

About two years of research went into the writing. The book is for the health-conscious reader and for the sceptic, not a boast about homoeopathy.

Research, ideas & exploration.

The work so far is a clarification, not a claim of new experimental findings. The question came from the consulting room.

The roots of homoeopathy, explained without fog.

Talking with patients, Dr. Shefali felt how large a doubt still hangs over the basic tenets of homoeopathy. The book is the published result of that enquiry. She hopes now to continue with pure research on the roots of the discipline.

Clinical practice

From 2013 she practised in Wardha: four years as a consultant at Lonare Homeo Clinic, then as founder of Adishi Homeo Clinic.

In four years at Adishi she cared for more than a thousand patients, and the clinic became well known in the town. After marriage she entrusted that practice to another homoeopathic physician. Patients from different states of India have consulted her in person and online.

What she counts as the greatest success is simpler: people still remember her, and still write when they need her.
