Arranging Homoeopathy Care for Your Parents in India — From the USA, UK or Anywhere Abroad

Many of our consultations are booked by sons and daughters living abroad for parents in India. How it works — from booking and joining the call to medicine delivery, safety at home and who to call in an emergency.

A large share of the consultations at our Udaipur clinic are arranged by sons and daughters living in the USA, UK, Canada, Australia or the Gulf — for parents who live in India. The family wants a qualified doctor who will take time, speak to their parents in Hindi, and keep them informed. Here is how that works in practice.

1. Booking from abroad

2. The consultation

The first consultation usually takes 30–45 minutes. Dr. Meenakshi speaks with your parent directly, in Hindi or English, about the main complaint, sleep, appetite, digestion, mood and their full medical history. You can add what you have noticed — family members often remember details the patient leaves out. If your parents live near Udaipur, they can also visit the clinic in Hiran Magri in person.

3. Reports and the medicine list

Before the call, send recent reports and — most important for older adults — a photo of every medicine and supplement they take. Many parents see two or three doctors, and medicines overlap. No prescribed medicine will be stopped; read homoeopathy with allopathic medicines.

4. Medicines and follow-ups

5. Payment from abroad

You can pay from abroad by card or PayPal in your own currency. Current details are on the payment page.

6. Safety at home — what families should set up

  • Chest pain, breathlessness, sudden weakness on one side, confusion, a fall with injury, black stools or vomiting blood — call local emergency services or go to the nearest hospital first
  • A new lump, unexplained weight loss or bleeding — see a local doctor for examination and tests
