Dr. Enders also rendered his services for poor farmers during a medical mission in Barangay Planas, Guihulngan, Negros Oriental in January 30 – 31.With Dr. Enders was SH pharmacist Anne Marie Roux who taught VPHCS staff how to make homeopathic remedies using mother tincture of the source plants, animals and minerals diluted in preparations of different concentrations of ethyl alcohol.Dr. Enders who is practicing in France has been training the staff of the VPHCS staff on the practice of homeopathy and treating indigent Cebuanos with homeopathy since 2008. He has given the staff systematic, comprehensive and quality trainings on the basic theories and practice of homeopathy, different remedies and indications, common illnesses and remedies, making a patient profile and arriving at a remedy, and other topics on homeopathy. Actual patients were also seen and treated during the trainings aside from lectures.Clinics of the staff with Dr. Enders were held during his recent mission in Sitio Lawis in Barangay Pasil and Sitio St. Mary Grace in Barangay Talamban, both of which are poor communities in Cebu City More than 200 patients were seen, treated and managed properly with homeopathy.
