Dr. med.Simone Ruppert-Willcock

I have a wide and varied experience as a paediatrician. I have previously worked in two childrens hospitals, run my own practice and helped in other countries in Africa and Asia where the people have only very limited access to medical services. These experiences together with the insight into other medical systems such as traditional Chinese medicine and Homeopathy has influenced my working methods.

The foundation is always conventional medicine. However, frequently complementary medicine (Homeopathy, TCM, natural medicine) can provide a useful addition, and indeed for some specific conditions a better alternative therapy – naturally always after discussion and agreement with the parents.
