The Principals
Dr Subrata K Banerjea – Principal
Dr Subrata Banerjea, BHMS FFHom FHMA is an internationally respected teacher and clinical homoeopathic practitioner who has lectured around the world since 1985. For five generations, the ‘Banerjea family’ has been recognised as authorities on miasmatic prescribing and Dr Banerjea continues this tradition. Dr Banerjea enjoys the challenges of Homoeopathic practice in advanced cases and regularly teaches clinical homoeopathy all over the world.
Subrata has written a number of books including “Clinical and Comparative Materia Medica”; “Classical Homoeopathy for an Impatient World” and the widely acclaimed “Miasmatic Prescribing”. Subrata’s insights into prescribing with his grasp of the nuances of Materia Medica make his lectures wonderfully rewarding and gives him the confidence in prescribing especially in advanced cases.
He rarely uses the Repertory, as his prescriptions are based on his command of Materia Medica.
He has also managed many acute crises in Indian Homoeopathic Medical Centres, where he still visits 2 to 3 times a year. Subrata’s international reputation for the last 35+ years, both as an inspiring teacher and a successful homoeopathic practitioner, is based on his extensive experience from his very busy clinical practice.
He also plays a very active role, in the Kamala Banerjee fund, a charity which distributes milk and free homoeopathic treatment to children from the slum of Calcutta, India.
Janet Banerjea – Joint Principal
As a teacher, Janet is enthusiastic and creative, encouraging her students to engage actively in learning homoeopathy in a way that is memorable for each student training to be a homoeopath. Janet’s supervision groups, to which practitioners commit to attending every two months or so as part of their CPD, is a supportive and engaging space in which qualified homoeopathic practitioners discuss cases and practice issues that helps students train to be homoeopaths.
Janet’s own practice is popular and busy with patients who frequently comment that they enjoyed their session and particularly appreciate Janet’s focus on listening throughout her attentive consultations.
Alongside homeopathy, Janet enjoys her garden, textiles, trying her hand at a variety of arts and crafts and loves all animals – particularly those with big personalities.
