The recognition of patient-centered care as a fundamental tenet in health care necessitates a deep understanding of patients’ values, preferences and experiences.[1] Within the realm of homeopathy, an approach that places great emphasis on individualized treatment, the incorporation of the patient perspective becomes even more paramount. The existing body of evidence in homeopathy critically lacks the patient’s involvement from the preliminary stage of research. The present discussion endeavors to explore the profound significance of integrating patient perspectives in homeopathic research, thereby highlighting the immense potential it holds for the development and evaluation of homeopathic interventions. Homeopathy, as a therapeutic modality, seeks to stimulate the body’s innate healing mechanisms by meticulously addressing the distinctive symptoms and characteristics exhibited by each individual.[2] It inherently acknowledges that patients’ experiences and perspectives play a pivotal role in determining treatment outcomes. By actively engaging patients in the research process, a profound comprehension of their experiences, beliefs and expectations can be gleaned, paving the way for research outcomes that are both meaningful and germane.
