Dr Yvonne Casey

Medically Qualified Natural Health Practitioner

I obtained my medical degree from Queen’s University, Belfast in 1993 and spent several years practicing in a number of hospitals, specialising in medicine, surgery, and oncology. Always having a keen interest in the field of complementary medicine I decided to study Homoeopathy at the Royal London Homoeopathic Hospital in Great Ormond Street and passed the Membership Examinations in 1998.

The following year was spent training in both Medical Herbalism and Acupuncture before moving to Jan de Vries’ Clinic in Auchenkyle, Troon, where I received further training from him. Working in Belfast, Dublin and Scotland practicing Homoeopathy, Herbal Medicine, Acupuncture and Dietary Management has built up considerable practical experience in the combination of orthodox and alternative treatments providing the most complete solution for patients.

I currently write a weekly column in the Cork Evening Echo and for almost 10 years for the Scottish Sunday Mail. I am willing to offer advice on traditional and complementary therapies, present feature articles and answer reader’s health questions, to help develop further understanding of healthcare issues and promote well being among readers by advancing the application of a holistic approach to ill health.
