Patient compliance with homeopathic therapy
C. Endrizzi and E. Rossi

The Homeopathic Clinic of the Campo di Marte Hospital, Lucca, Italy  
(the Homeopathic Reference Centre for Tuscany) registered a total of  
1287 patients seen for the first time between September 1998 and 31  
December 2004, of these 560 (43.5%) returned for a follow-up visit  
after a minimum interval of 2 months following the first consultation.  
In order to ascertain the reasons for patients not returning for  
follow-up consultations (drop-out) a telephone survey was carried out  
on every patient who had been seen during the period from 1 June 2002  
to 31 May 2003, but had not returned for a follow-up visit. 73/104  
eligible patients were contacted. 37/73 referred to the effectiveness  
of the treatment which led to an improvement in their state of health,  
naming this as the reason why they did not return for a follow-up visit.
