In
the little town of Kotayam-Kerala, you disembark
from a rickshaw at an address you are holding in
your hand, and then realize you’ve been a
fool to waste half an hour hunting for the address,
when all you had to do was say ‘Dr Patel’
at the railway station. If there is an ounce of
desire to know anything about Homoeopathy, then
this is THE door to knock at. Dr. Ramanlal. P.Patel,
Recipient of Dr Hahnemann Memorial National Award-2000,
Great Master Award-2003, Lifetime Achievement award-2003
a keen observer, a compassionate physician &
a vociferous teacher, is a name, which goes hand
in hand with Homoeopathy.
Dr.
Patel has climbed the ladder in Homoeopathy from
a student at the Calcutta Homoeopathic Medical college
to have been on the scientific advisory committee-CCRH,
Panel of Health, Planning commission-Govt.of India,
and many more to state. At every step, he has not
just received something from Homoeopathy, but has
always given something more to Homoeopathy. Having
headed and retired from many prestigious posts in
the world of Homoeopathy, he has chosen never to
stagnate.
On
the contrary, his relentless work has only been
gaining constant momentum. He opened up the crux
of the 6th edition of Organon, by bringing forth
the 50 Millesimal potency. with decades of hard
tedious work, he has given to Homoeopathy, masterpieces
like ‘The Art of case taking and practical
Repertorisation in Homoeopathy’, ‘My
Experiments with 50 Millesimal Scale Potencies’,
‘Chronic Miasms their cure and classification
of their Repertorial Rubrics in Dr. Kent’s
Repertory’, ‘Dr.Kent’s Repertory
of Homoeopathic Materia Medica, Corrected and Improved
Sixth American edition after 50 years of Research
work with a complete new layout ’ and many
more. And yet…. a learner forever, always
diligently taking down notes from whoever it be,
a senior practitioner, a junior practitioner or
even a beginner. In a nutshell, one can study Homoeopathy
anywhere, but one can FEEL, one can PALPATE Homoeopathy,
with Dr R.P Patel.
