About MacRepertory and ReferenceWorks
Roger Morrison,MD: "MacRepertory is an absolute revolution in homeopathci analysis. Is by far superior to any other system of repertorization. MacRepertory is not complete with crucial additions but is also sensitive to the visionary strategies of the homoeopath while remaining easy to use for those new to computers. It is indispensable to my practice. More
Bill Gray, MD: "MacRepertory is the wave of the
future for homeopathy."
The mind-numbing,
slogging labor of repertorization has now become swift and fun. For
beginners, MacRepertory is a means to analyze cases despite a paucity
of knowledge. For advanced prescribers, it is an essential adjunct in
dificult chronic cases and most acutes. In the future, it will provide
the means for research that will move homeopathy to a whole new plane
of sophistication." More
Anne Schadde: "How can we ever get ideas to
prescribe for patients without the help of a complete repertory? In
most cases the repertorisation can help to find a remedy for the
totality of the symptoms. The wide spectrum of possibilities to
analyse, repertorize and search for the remedy is unique with
MacRepertory. I also appreciate the additions of all the old and some
new well done provings to the repertory which can help us to prescribe
more precisely." More
Richard Pitcairn, DVM: “I
use MacRepertory every day. It is an essential part of my practice and
is invaluable in my work with animals. David Warkentin has performed a
miracle-he has brought the repertory into our modern times! " More
Sally Goodwin, MD: "Before MacRepertory, I was often lost in the paper work of analyzing cases, and I was sure I would not be able to use a computer without going back to school. To my surprise I've found that it is easy to get a detailed and accurate analysis of my cases and that using a computer is simply fun: thanks to MacRepertory." More
Robert Canida, DDS: "MacRepertory is fabulous. Practicing without it would be like giving up the high speed drill in dentistry."
Francisco Eizayaga, MD: "As a homeopath for many years involved with repertories, and author of my own, the computer program MacRepertory created by David Kent Warkentin is simply wonderful. The task of seeking the best remedy is reduced in duration to a tenth of the time usually necessary and the repertorization is done with accuracy and perfection. This work is no longer hard or heavy, but is a pleasure, and sometimes, a game. I am astonished with the successful results and I predict a whole new era for the practice of homeopathy."“This program has saved my life"
Nancy Herrick, PA: "I use MacRepertory every day; I
cannot imagine life without it. It's my most essential tool next to my
brain."

Miranda Castro, FSHom: "It's a great teaching
tool-and of course studying tool. It makes learning small remedies a
piece of cake." See.
Sandy Kierzowski: "Not a day goes by that I don't thank God you had the know how and the desire to develop MacRepertory. I know it has and will do much for the advancement of Homeopathy. Perhaps like a pebble thrown into a pool of water, you will never know how far your ripple has reached."
John Dramond, MD, HMD: "This is the best designed
and most useful
medical software I have ever used."
Julie Quinn:
"The ease and speed in which I am able to repertorize my cases is
marvellous, but I'm even more impressed with the depth of repertorial
analysis possible. I know that MacRepertory will go down in homeopathic
history as a tremendous achievement and invaluable gift to the
homeopathic community and world. I'm thrilled to have access to this
incredible program. You've done an amazing job!"
Lamy Marrich:
"This program has saved my life. I don't have to spend 10-15 hours of
case work at home after 40-50 hours at the office. It has made my life
more available to my family."
Neil Tesseler, ND: "THE PROGRAM IS HARDLY LESS THAN A REVELATION... It's like having a homeopath in the room for a second opinion."
E.C. Whitmont, MD: "The present ability of the MacRepertory and ReferenceWorks constitutes nothing less than a milestone in the evolution of Homeopathy. With the help of these new tools it has become possible for the prescriber to transcend the limitations of the Kentian system which, by using predominantly generals and mentals would lead onemore likely than not only to a polycrest. Now it has become feasible to resurrect the original Hahnemannian approach that includes significant, even seemingly minor local symptoms, even when they constitute large rubrics, and to locate obscure symptoms out of the maze of forgotten or otherwise inaccessible literature." "The implications for a hitherto inaccessible accuracy of prescribing are as yet unforeseeable."
"A masterpiece"
Lucinda Dykes:
"David Warkentin and Kent Homeopathic Associates have created a
masterpiece. When I recently saw the demonstration of MacRepertory 5.0,
I was rendered speechless - it went clear off the high end of my 1-10
scale."
"I've only just started using it - but WOW. I am
amazed at what it can do - it would take me hours and hours to do this
longhand. I know I'll really know more in 6 months, but it has already
helped me by changing my attitude toward doing cases - I feel like it
helps me learn so much.
Anyway, hope you're not tired of hearing MacRepertory praises - I
already ordered the upgrade to the complete package, but the basic
package is amazing."
Miri Tachan: "You can be sure that I will recommend this program to my colleagues."
Louise Schaefer:
"Thank you for your excellent program MacRepertory, for the technical
support and for all of the wonderful people who work at Kent. It is
always a pleasure to deal with your company.
Jared L. Zeff, ND:
"It has become an indispensable tool for my work. I can not imagine
doing repertorization by hand again. The flexibility which the
MacRepertory has given me allows significantly greater freedom of
thinking and case analysis. (But you know all this!)"
"I find it truly remarkable"
M. M. Van Benschoten, OMD, CA: "The many analysis strategies are nothing short of brilliant and open up completely new territory in the examination of small remedies. Both my patients and I thank you for making difficult cases easy, phone consultations a pleasure, and allowing avery busy doctor to prescribe on the totality of symptoms rather than iust a few keynotes."
Craig Spaulding:
"It's been two years since using MacRepertory out in the bush and I've
put it through its paces in the rainforest. It has greatly increased
both the accuracy and speed with which I can repertorize...
and after two and a half years I am still amazed at its power and
flexibility. I am still discovering features that are useful for my
particular way of working." (New Guinea)
Barbara Seideneck: "I don't know where I would be without MacRepertory. My work is getting good, really good, and MacRepertory has helped alot in getting me there."
Melissa Fairbanks, RSHom, CCH: "Ten
years have passed by with thousands of patients and for each one I have
just opened my MacRepertory -clicked and zoomed, crossed rubrics,
selected and analyzed cases with ever increasing precision and detail
and as well as spending hours just 'playing'-learning for my own joy.
Not only is MacRepertory invaluable to have, it is unimaginable to
not
have. That is why I am writing. Two weeks ago my Powerbook was damaged.
As much as I always have valued MacRepertory-I didn't realize the
extent to which I rely on it! It is a sobering experience to have five
fingers stuck in the various pages of Kent and sprigs of paper poking
from other books. I doubt that you'll have to convince anyone of the
value of these programs; instead it would be better to start a
bereavement hot-line for those who don't have it!
"MacRepertory really shines"
GregBedayn, RSHom (Review in the American Homeopath): "For those of you who don't know about MacRepertory, it is the cream of the repertorization programs. It helps to repertorize and analyze your patient's cases using virtually all of the repertories and materia medica's. It shows you the best choices of remedies for your case analysis to fit the individuality of the case. It also allows you to quickly compare materia medica, to find confirmatory symptoms, and to save your patients' charts, electronically, for ongoing follow-ups. MacRepertory has long had the reputation for being the richest and easiest of homeopathic tools."
Chris Kurz (1997 Comprehensive Comparative Review of Homeopathic Software, widely published): "In terms of comparing different analysis strategies and finding the best approach to interpreting the repertorization, MacRepertory's full suite of graph styles is hard to beat. Much more important than that, however, is the ability to play with the case and see how that affects the repertorization. MacRepertory's graphs are linked "live" to the rubric clipboards. Any change you make there (e.g. underlining, or selecting certain rubrics, etc.) will be reflected immediately in the graph. To me, this immediacy promotes an intimate interaction with the case, which more than once showed me the right way to the simillimum..."
"One area where MacRepertory really
shines is the analysis of a case based on natural families. With only
two mouse clicks you see your case projected onto the periodical table
of elements and can easily locate the center of gravity and
repertorization favors. Nothing easier than that. You can view the
botanical families in hierarchical order, while the darker shades of
green show you where the repertorization falls. I really enjoyed
playing with this part of the program, not the least because the
pictures are well done and fun to look at. Besides chemical and
botanical relationships, there are several others you can explore in
a similar fashion (e.g., zoological or miasmatic)."
"Easiest to use of ail programs with the most consistent user
interface...
Seamlessly integrated remedy families... Most versatile and powerful
search feature... Powerful and extendable suite of case~ analysis
strategies... Extensive and customizable set of repertorization
graphs... Good integration of patient data and charts..." likely remedy
relationships there. Or, maybe, you suspect a plant remedy and want to
see which botanical families the
