Thank you for your interest in pursuing homeopathic treatment. I trust you will find your homeopathic experience fruitful and interesting. Please refer to the paragraph below for important information about our new patient packet.
You can download a pdf file of the new patient packet by clicking the appropriate image of the document below (either the adult new patient packet or that of a child). It contains information about the practice, fees and billing policy, directions, as well as important forms to fill out. Of the greatest importance, however, is the accompanying guide to reporting symptoms, which provides a framework for patients to prepare a written document detailing health concerns, past history, and extremely relevant mental/emotional/personality characteristics. Whether or not you believe you experience mental/emotional symptoms, a good description of your personality characteristics is critical for homeopathic analysis and should be included. So that your report gets all the careful attention it deserves and to save you time when you are at the office for your consultation, it is strongly recommended that you prepare the report well in advance of your scheduled visit and email it to Dr. Guess (gguessmd@gmail.com) at least 48 hours before your appointment. While it is fine to send the forms as a pdf file, your symptom narrative should be formatted as a Word or text file. Also, if you prefer, you can simply bring your filled out forms with you to the office, However, in all cases, the symptom narrative should be sent ahead of time. If you lack email service, you can fax the report to 434-823-1637 (please note that this is not a dedicated fax line; so you might have to re-fax it a time or two).
Sincerely,
George Guess, MD, DABHM
