When he took early retirement from his appointment as Physician to Her Majesty the Queen in 2001, he was honoured by Her Majesty with the award of Lieutenant of the Royal Victorian Order.

Whilst at the same time practising as a General Physician in his London practice, first in Harley Street then at 1 Upper Wimpole Street, Dr Davey pursued his interests in research.

These involved not only orthodox medicine but also in the wider field of complementary medicine..

His wide range of research activities has involved:

Investigating the effects of electro stimulation of the human central nervous system and the generation of neuropeptides for pain relief.
The investigation of antibiotic effects of botanical extracts.

This resulted in the discovery of a new anti-MRSA and anti Tuberculosis chemical,naturally found in Bee Propolis.

This he did as Blackie Research Fellow at the National Heart and Lung Institute in London.
This culminated in the award of an MD from Imperial College London.

Using the above discovery, further investigations of its application in the treatment of leprosy were pursued as Visiting Research Scholar at Green College Oxford
As Honorary Medical Director of the Blackie Memorial Foundation, Dr Davey sought to elucidate the efficacy and mode of action of homoeopathy. As a result of his activities he published papers suggesting ways of overcoming the difficulties of research on homoepathy and the Standardisation of homoepathic remedies.

During his career Dr Davey has worked at the Tunbridge Wells Homoeopathic hospital and also the Royal London Homoeopathic hospital.

He was instrumental in establishing the first Chair of Complementary Medicine at the Peninsular University at Exeter.

In the last 10 years Dr Davey has developed a special interest in nutrition and stress management. This has culminated in his developing a new approach to weight control and longevity called The GeneticTransformation Diet.
