About
us
We are people who have been benefited from homeopathic medicine and we formed
in our days the association Hellenic Secretariat of Homeopathy
(E.G.O) through which are expressed about 22.000 individuals. We are people
who want to know what is happening in our organism and to have the
chance to decide for ourselves after we understand first what is happening
to us. We are people that want human collaboration with our doctors
and do not accept others to decide for us instead of us, wearing the
cloak of the absolute and inaccessible authority. We respect our doctors,
we trust them and we accept their scientific opinion but we do not
tolerate to be deprived of the right to co-decide with them for matters
concerning ourselves. We are the kind of people that seek the most
painless, for our health and our pocket, therapeutic solutions. We
are those who addressed homeopathy when we found ourselves in an impasse
and found effective and lasting solutions in our problems. We are those
who we have achieved a high level of health and prevention with the
aid of homeopathy, thus as members of a society that seeks always for
the best, we feel the obligation to transmit our experience to others
who might also need it.
Our
association is open to anyone who cares about society
as a whole with a broad mind and responsibility.

concerning homeopathy mainly in Greece. However,
we will also have responsible information from abroad.
Our
doctors
We consider also our obligation to refer to the people who have helped us
medically because these doctors have created us, all the benfited from homeopathy,
and essentially constitute the generating cause for the creation of our association.
This
reference is made because these people entered the
last years in the eye of cyclone of publicity. Became
public faces. They were discussed by all of us. They
were judged, blamed, interrogated and distinguished.
Every aspect of their private personal life was brought
to publicity. Thus, since they are considered public
faces and subjects mostly talked over, we henceforth
have the right to speak about them
Especially since we are the persons who have known them and have been watching
them them for several years, thus we are the most appropriate to express
an opinion about them. We know them as scientists and also as human beings.
We have seen them through good times and difficult times and so we have the
right to speak about them frankly, without fear or passion, and above all,
serving only the provision of information and the support of homeopathy as
our statutory aims forecast.
The
Inspiration
Medical doctor Spyros Diamantidis was born in 1948 in Thessaloniki. He grew
in Alexandroupoli of Thrace where he graduated from high school. His father
was one of the most prominent lawyers in Greece. His dream from his early
years was to study medicine and to serve the suffering human being. He realised
his dream by studying medicine in Athens and coming thus in contrast with
his father who wanted his son to become a lawyer. When he reached the 5th
year of his medical studies, he realised that his vision was very far from
what offered conventional medicine. He realised that he had made a big sacrifice
disturbing/spoiling even his relationship with his father for the sake of
a science that finally did not correspond to his vision. It was then that
he began a research in the not-conventional territory of medicine where he
discovered homeopathy. He returned, took his degree from the medical school
of the university and became immediately student of the great professor P.
Schmidt in Geneva. He studied in many from the traditional places of homeopathy
and acquired many titles.
He
conducted personally many proovings of homeopathetic
medicines and thus acquired not only knowledge but
also personal experience of the Materia Medica.
He
was characterized as the guru of homeopathy due to
his exceptional eloquency and the lively way he transmits
his knowledge. Wherever he gives a lecture the halls
are filled to capacity. He gave new perspective in
the interpretation of the phenomena of homeopathy
and he founded the grounds of the objective, instead
of subjective, homeopathic diagnosis through his
personal theory of MAN.I.N.A (Man’s Intellectual
Normalities and Abnormalities) and through the theory
of the active cast. He raised the therapeutic results
of homeopathy to very high levels by applying new
therapeutic formulas that were always based on the
dynamics and the sublte truths of Hahnemanian teachings.
Thus, he gave new thrust to the development of homeopathy
that for years had been riveted (immobilized).
He
is considered the renovator of homeopathy and the
revivor of its modern expression who brings it worthfully
in the third millenium.
Medical
team of Diamantidis
The medical team of Diamantidi’s is a dynamic scientific team that accomplished
in in the last 15 years to present most important social and scientific work.
It
is constituted from doctors who are the only homeopathetic
doctors in Greece who, as medical professionals,
practise solely and permanently homeopathic medicine,
and have not aquired a conventional medical specialty.
Thus, they resisted to the model of doctor who in the morning prescribes
conventional medicines in the hospital and in the afternoon supplements his
income by administering homeopathetic medicines.
This
medical team had important actions and achievements
such as:
- Elevated homeopathy from its marginal place in
Greece by offering free from charge three-year
lessons to 2500 doctors, pharmacists, dentists
and
veterinarians.
- Held 70 round table discussions, with free ently for the public, on subjects
of big social interest, such as cancer, narcotics and AIDS.
- Participated in the homeopathetic Committee of the Ministry of Health
formed with nr. D1G / 2284/88 ministerial decision of the unforgettable
G.Gennimatas aiming at the submission of proposals for the terms and the
conditions of
exercise of homeopathy in Greece.
- Organised 12 national and 5 international congresses in Greece and Cyprus.
- Made dynamic interventions in the competent ministries and services of
Greece supporting the consolidation of patient’s right to have the pharmaceutical
expenses covered from health insurance funds and organisms.
- Made hundreds of appearances in the mass communication media promoting
and advancing homeopathy.
- publishes magazine HOMOEOTYPOS with medical subjects in 30.000 copies.
Today the medical team of Diamantidis is constituted
from many scientists of health field. We will
currently mention, however, those who have
suffered
directly the consequences of the unfair attack at homeopathy and who continue
to serve with consistency their scientific field. The report is in alphabetical
