The study of homeopathy has evolved over the years; it’s been criticised, neglected and even denied the legal recognition in many places, only to emerge as the second largest medical alternative after allopathy. Despite all the hurdles, homeopathy has firmly engraved its roots across the globe; it’s currently used in over 80 countries, and enjoys a legal recognition as an individual system of medicine in 42 countries and is recognized as a part of alternative medicine in 28 countries.

“Homeopathy is the most progressive science with a lot of scope for research as well. With the changing patterns of diseases day by day and our changing lifestyles, homeopathy is a medicine of tomorrow, because it treats patients on the basis of symptomatology and not on nosological names,” says Dr. Vandana Chopra, who did her BHMS from Nehru Homeopathic College and Hospital, Delhi.

To become a qualified homeopath, one needs to undergo substantial study of five-and-a-half-years in a college recognised by Central Council of Homeopathy which includes 4.5 years of study and one-year of compulsory training in a hospital during which a student gains practical exposure.
