When patients first visit Dr. Branch, he first performs
an initial three to four hour intake interview in which
he creates a personalized
patient map to diagnose the
patient’s illness and environmental factors associated
with it. People often don’t recognize environmental
or social components aggravating their problems until
they sit and discuss them.
Dr. Branch uses the interview to learn about a patient’s
emotional and physical symptoms. This is important not
only to provide Dr. Branch insight as to the patient’s
ailment, but, as he explains it, “Each person has
a certain “energetic imprint” out of which
imbalances spring.” Dr. Branch uses the initial interview
to track where a patient’s emotional, mental, and
physical symptoms come together. He firmly believes that
when it comes to deep healing, putting an experience into
words provides him with far more information than lab tests.
After the initial consultation, Dr. Branch will choose
to either study the case further or make a prescription
for the homeopathic remedy that matches a patient’s “energetic
imprint.” Finding an exact, curative prescription
for a patient usually takes time and effort. Most cases
can be solved within a four-month period.
There are usually three follow-up appointments, the first
occurring about one month after the patient takes the first
dose of the remedy. At this session, Dr. Branch evaluates
his patient’s response, discuss nutritional and nutriceutical
choices, educates the patient in the different energetic
levels of healing, and, if necessary, refines the treatment.
Additional follow-up sessions occur once a month thereafter,
with each session lasting between 30-45 minutes. Since
homeopathic remedies are one substance among thousands,
Dr, Branch may need to re-interview a patient in order
to pinpoint the proper match.
At the end of four months, many patients will to continue
their treatment with a maintenance program with occasional
follow-up sessions; others may still need more intensive
work to bring the case to a close.
For those patients who no longer need treatment for a
illness, Dr. Branch offers a preventative program for patients
looking to remain in the practice. It is not uncommon when
patients become ill with a cold or flu to call Dr. Branch
for assistance rather than their regular doctor.
If a patent has chronic disease and is dependent upon
pharmaceutical drugs, it is possible to begin homeopathic
treatment while the patient remains on the medicine. As
the homeopathic treatment takes effect, the drugs, in many
cases, can be gradually discontinued.
