i wouldn't recommend a homeopath in singapore, because it's an unregulated industry (last i know of).
i know many people believe in alternative treatments, but since you're now in singapore, i can only recommend you check out a qualified eastern/chinese TCM physician instead.
my personal take on this is: medications i prescribe to my wife for a persistent ailment didn't help much in the long run (i'm an allopathic physician - so i treat whatever symtoms the body has). she now goes to a singapore TCM physician and feels it's a lot better now.
my sister had traditional medications and remedies over the course of almost 10 years that rid her of chronic asthma. so i won't say it doesn't work or might just be in the patient's head.
my professional take on this is: sometimes, you need to take a few before finding a suitable course of treatment. i recommend you try out a qualified OSTEOPATH either back home or in singapore (I'm unsure if any DOs are there).
look out for their DO qualifications - they ought to be recognized by the AMA. they will be able to help treat your child through helping you and your child adopt various preventive steps.
if you feel that western medicine is still unable to cure the problem and the problem is one without a real cure, i would encourage seeking alternative remedies.
but in my experience, most of the time patients simply have not found a doctor who is able to thoroughly diagnose the problem (fo a variety of reasons).
don't give up yet.
i'm glad you're taking steps to help your child, but be careful what unlicensed/unregulated homeopaths make your kid ingest.
SIDEBAR ALERT!!! SIDEBAR ALERT!!!
eastern medications are a VERY bitter pill to swallow. literally, and may cost as much as a normal doctor and drugstore visit.
the medicine such persons prescribe often work at a level similar to western medications, just with variations. whatever benefits alternative treatments yield for a patient can be emulated with western medicine.
but a physician's first rule is to DO NO HARM and we generally will not prescribe various remedies that we think or are told by the patients that will be beneficial for the problem.
for eg, not all oncologists will prescribe marijuana to alleviate pain. there are other considerations physicians have to take into consideration for each patient's course of action.
alternative "cures" may be had through experimentation - granted these may actually be beneficial for various conditions and may be even adopted by western physicians through research by pharmaceutical companies or medical institutions. until that happens, doctors have to DO NO HARM.
lastly, like their MD counterparts, not all TCM physicians are good. some are there to make a quick buck. poke around your neighborhood "aunties" or "uncles" - they're good at that!
