Medical Cannabis Clinic

Do You Need A Medical Cannabis Appointment?

In the UK, a medical cannabis prescription can be offered by a specialist doctor. A consultation gives you clarity on what is realistic, what is safe, and what happens next.

You will have space to talk openly about symptoms, past treatments, concerns, and day-to-day impact.

You can make an appointment to discuss:

• Long-standing pain that is affecting sleep, mobility, or mood
• Nausea or appetite changes linked to an ongoing condition or treatment
• Muscle spasms or spasticity that is not settling
• Anxiety or sleep disruption that is persistent despite support
• Chronic conditions such as PTSD, depression and epilepsy
• Questions about how private medical cannabis prescribing works in practice

How We Can Help

We help you understand whether medical cannabis is a sensible option to explore, and what a responsible prescribing pathway looks like.

If medical cannabis is not the right fit, you will still leave with a clear idea of what else may be possible, based on what you’ve already shared with us.

Your appointment is likely to include discussion of:

• Your current symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment history
• Your current medicines and possible interactions to consider
• What THC and CBD-based medicines are, and how they differ
• Whether a trial could be considered, and how monitoring works
• Practicalities such as work, driving, travel and confidentiality

Prices

Any prescriptions, pharmacy dispensing fees, or recommended tests may involve additional costs, and we will talk you through these clearly before anything is arranged.

Your Plan, Step By Step

Typical Steps to Accessing Prescribed Cannabis

• Step 1: Initial consultation and review of your medical history and current treatment plan
• Step 2: Review of supporting documentation and records, with your consent
• Step 3: Shared decision-making about suitability and safety considerations
• Step 4: If appropriate, a private prescription is issued and sent to the dispensing pharmacy
• Step 5: Follow-up to review response, side effects, and whether any adjustments are needed

Is This The Right Service For You?

This service may suit you if you are looking for a legitimate, specialist-led way to explore private medical cannabis, rather than trying to work it out alone.

We can help you understand eligibility, safety considerations, and what a monitored prescription plan would involve.

What To Expect At Your First Appointment

Your first appointment is designed to be unhurried, so you can ask the questions you have.

We will review your history, talk through safety, and explain what would need to happen before any prescription could be considered.

What to bring or prepare:

• A list of current medications and doses
• Any relevant clinic letters or diagnosis summaries you already have
• Notes on symptoms, triggers, and what you have tried so far
• Any questions about day-to-day issues such as sleep, work, and driving

Follow-Up And Ongoing Appointments

If you decide to move forward with treatment, we schedule a follow-up review to make sure the plan remains safe, tolerable, and appropriate for you.

We will agree clear review points with you so that you are confident in the next steps.

Follow-up commonly covers:

• Symptom response and side effects
• Any dose or product adjustments, if clinically appropriate
• Repeat prescription planning and timing
• Ongoing co-ordination with your wider care, where relevant and with your consent
