In order to set an appointment with a cannabis clinic, you will need to:

• obtain a referral from your doctor (found here)
• provide a health summary from your doctor
• fill in the consent form (found here)

2) The consultation

Once you have filled in the contact form requesting an appointment (Patient Enquiry form), you will be on the right track to gaining access to medicinal cannabis.

The process typically follows:

• Phone interview
• Initial consultation

Once approved, the doctor will write up a prescription for the recommended medical cannabis treatment.

The pharmacy will order the product from the supplier, and the medicinal cannabis will be posted to you.
