About Dr Eva Pérez Visus - Paediatrician | Homeopath
I was born in Spain in 1957. I discovered my passion for helping children early on as a medical student. I realized that while hospital and emergency medicine weren’t my calling, connecting with people—especially children—was where I thrived. I dedicated myself to understanding the reasons behind their illnesses and developing effective strategies to improve their well-being.
Professional Journey
- Training as a paediatrician (1981-1985), followed by 3 years of working as a paediatrician in a primary health care centre in Spain.
- Paediatrician in Angola (1989-1990). The country was at war and the conditions were challenging but I gained invaluable experience.
- Diploma in Tropical Child Health (1991): I attended the Liverpool School of Tropical Diseases, where I completed a diploma in tropical child health. It was there that I met my future husband, a South African pediatrician.
I have been living and working in Cape Town since 1992. For over three decades, I’ve been dedicated to serving the children in underprivileged communities.
Holistic Approach:
- Homeopath (2005): I completed my homeopathic training and opened a private practice. My focus shifted to holistic care, addressing not only physical health but also emotional well-being.
- Parenting Challenges: As a parent myself, I understand the struggles families face. Guiding my own children through school challenges has made me a more empathetic and informed professional.
Behavioral and Learning Support:
- School-Based Work (2010-2022): I assessed and managed children dealing with behavioral and learning difficulties. From ADHD and autism to dyslexia and anxiety, I brought clarity and calm to families navigating complex situations. I now do the same type of work, but from my private practice.
- Empowering Families: Knowledge truly is power. I’m passionate about sharing insights and strategies to empower families on their journey toward better health and understanding.
