Excellent Training Day

“An excellent training day including the history, pharmacology, medico-legal and practical aspects of medical cannabis prescribing. The sessions were highly interactive and a comprehensive handbook was provided. I learned a lot in addition to the TAOMC learning modules and it was a good opportunity to share experiences with colleagues.”
Dr Andrew Bradford MD

Cannabis Medicine is the Best Thing

“Actually, for me, cannabis medicine has always been the best thing for Alfie. It’s not a cure, but it’s the best thing for him and with the least side effects.”
