Register with your chosen clinic and consent for them to access your NHS medical records. This starts your initial screening.
2️⃣ Book a Video Consultation
Once your screening is approved, you’ll be able to book a video appointment with a specialist doctor.
Consultations typically last 15–60 minutes and the cost varies by clinic.
3️⃣ Talk With the Prescribing Specialist
Your clinician will review your condition and medical history, previous treatments (including talking therapies), whether you meet eligibility guidelines, and the best cannabis products for your symptoms.
This may include cannabis flower, oils, vapes, or other forms.
You will not be penalised for past recreational cannabis use.
4️⃣ Receive Your Medical Cannabis Prescription
If approved, you’ll receive a 30-day prescription.
Your medication is dispensed by a specialist UK pharmacy and delivered to your home in smell-proof packaging.
💡 Who Qualifies for Medical Cannabis in the UK?
Medical cannabis can be prescribed for a wide range of chronic or treatment-resistant conditions, including chronic pain, anxiety, depression, ADHD, epilepsy, PTSD, multiple sclerosis, IBS, migraines, and many more.
Most patients must have tried two previous treatments, but these can include non-drug therapies depending on clinical judgement.
