The Hierophant Practitioners

The following practitioners are dedicated to the service of The Hierophant:

Kim Dudley 

Kim holds a BA from Macquarie University, Sydney, majoring in mathematics. After graduation he taught for four years in secondary schools in New South Wales before undertaking a three-year study in Acupuncture at the Australian Acupuncture College, Sydney. Kim also studied Herbal Medicine for two years under Dorothy Hall and a year's course in Homeopathy with Alan Jones (former president of the Australian Institute of Homeopathy). In addition to finishing his alternative studies, Kim became a registered nurse following his training at the Prince Henry, Paddington Women's and Prince of Wales Hospitals in Sydney. Kim has been in full time practice since 1978 in Canberra, six days a week, practising both from his home and from The Hierophant. From 1998-2002 Kim was also working three days a month at a medical clinic at Bondi Junction in Sydney with Dr. Judy Moss. 

Apart from his medical pursuits and teaching, Kim has an interest in meditation, and on several occasions has studied in yoga ashrams overseas

Tim Thomas 

Originally from old south Wales, Tim holds a B.Sc. (Hons) from the Royal College of Science, London. He subsequently came to Australia and studied Herbal and Homeopathic Medicine under Kim, and involved himself with the laboratory preparation of plant remedies. To further his appreciation of conventional medicine Tim trained at The Canberra Hospital and is a registered nurse. He has subsequently lectured to homeopathic students for many years in Canberra and been the principle tutor in courses teaching the laboratory preparation of plant medicines. 

Tim has been in full-time practice in Canberra since 1990 and as well as working from The Hierophant, he also worked two days a month at the medical clinic at Bondi Junction for five years

Gerry Dendrinos 

Gerry holds a B.Sc. (Hons) from the Australian National University. He began his medical studies with Diploma Course in Natural Medicines at the Kim Dudley Naturopathic College at The Hierophant in 1996. Throughout his initial training Gerry worked on the retail staff at The Hierophant, and its present superb collection of books is principally due to his efforts. He subsequently completed a Diploma in Classical Herbal Medicine with Dorothy Hall and has since regularly attended seminars, both in Australia and India, with internationally distinguished homeopathic teachers.

Gerry has a special interest in working with challenging chronic health problems that fall outside orthodox medicine's ability to be effective. He is also interested in children's health, particularly in the areas of ear/nose/throat complaints and ADD/ADHD and other behavioural problems. Gerry has a young family and a cat, and some of his other interests include nature, sport and travel.
