WHO IS BUYING MEDICAL WEED
This will give you an idea on who is applying for Medical Cannabis:
I booked an appointment to see a cannabis doctor in a pain management clinic. The interview/ prescription/diagnosis took 2.5 hours. Of course a note from my doctor helped the process. I was also told if you supply a list of the pain medication prescribed that they would be able to accommodate without a doctors note.
There were 100 people applying for medical cannabis consumption on that day from 9am to 11:30am:
Note: There is a two to three week waiting period for an appointment.
A breakdown of the people applying,
40 % Upper 60’s age, husband and spouse were applying individually.
20% 45 to 55 age
20% 30s and up
20% Under 30s
Once prescribed, they send the registration form to the LP or your choice.
This particular clinic had only three choices. TWEED, APH and LEAF.
I inquired about getting medication from another source and they in turn replied that these companies were the easiest to deal with. I am sure there are deals in place with the licensed LPs and the clinic(s).
Clinic is located in Toronto.
