Certainly a good-looking website! However, I think you know what I am getting at. There are beautiful, professionally designed websites out there promoting practically anything you can think of (and quite a few you wouldn't want to think of).
What I am talking about is some kind of official blue stamp. If I look for a conventional doctor, I can verify that she is properly authorized by the authorities, and while this is no guarantee, it tells me that she has has a relevant education, and that she is sureveyed by the authorities to some degree.
Unless I undertake a rather exensive study, I have to take it on faith that a homeopathic practitioner is actually well qualified, no matter how pretty a website she can refer to (or whether she is in the yellow pages

).
You know that I'm a skeptic, and this is no problem for me personally (since I would not consult a homeopath anyway), but quite objectively I think it is a problem for homeopaths.
