In 1995 this course evolved into the South African Faculty of Homeopathy of which he became the Dean.Since 1999 David has lectured widely in the UK and also in Ireland Japan Australia Denmark and Latvia. In his lectures he weaves together homeopathic art and science analytical psychology mythology symbolism chakra and colour theory natural science and spiritual philosophy to provide a rich tapestry of perennial wisdom and knowledge.In December 2007 David retired from his private practice in Pretoria and moved to Cape Town where he currently conducts a small select practice and is concentrating on writing and lecturing.
