John is in his fifteenth year of full time homeopathic family practice in Palo Alto. John is a classical homeopath with a specialty in treating children and adults with developmental and neurological conditions such as autism, Asperger's Syndrome, cerebral palsy, and mental retardation. John is now successfully treating severely limited children who are so unwell and unmanageable that they must reside and receive care outside of their family homes. It is his particular delight to treat children. Born and raised in Canada, John was admitted to the U.S. on the basis of "extraordinary ability" in homeopathy. As a respected clinician and teacher of homeopathy here and abroad, John received his Certification from the Council for Homeopathic Certification, a nationally recognized peer-review organization. He has also earned the designation "Master Clinician" because of his post graduate studies.

John received both his undergraduate and graduate degrees in homeopathy in England. He graduated with honors from the London College of Classical Homeopathy, a four year professional program of study. He received an advanced practitioner's degree from The Dynamis School for Advanced Homeopathic Studies in London - a postgraduate two-year program of study. He has also completed a two year program of study in advanced clinical practice from Luminos Homeopathic Courses. This course leads to a qualification as a "Master Clinician" in Homeopathy.

He continues to study and teach domestically and abroad. In 2006 he was invited to teach about Autism and its treatment in Welligton, New Zealand. Recently he spoke about Autism at the 2008 California Homeopathic Medical Society conference.

What Homeopaths Have to Say

"John is one of the most effective and knowledgeable homeopaths treating autistic and brain injured children in America today. With his abundant experience, he has developed a special ability to work with these children."
Louis Klein, F.S. Hom., author Clinical Focus Guide to Homeopathic Remedies, director Luminos Homeopathic Courses, West Vancouver, British Colombia, Canada

"I have had the good fortune to interact and discuss cases of children affected with various kinds of neurological ailments with John. I have often been surprised by his clarity in thinking. His ability to spot minor clues that most others might miss is a big skill that he possesses. His confidence in homoeopathy and his love for his children patients is most evident through his cases. An opportunity to learn from his cases should definitely not be missed."
Dr.Sunil Anand, M.D., professor D.S. Medical College, Pune, India

"John Melnychuk has a great deal of experience and understanding of autism and its treatment with homeopathy."
