Medical Cannabis For Health Professionals 3.0 Seminar.

Announcement posted by PRforthePlanet 05 Mar 2019

Many Doctors are already prescribing Medical Cannabis.



Australia Legalised Medical Cannabis in 2016.

Medical Cannabis was legalised 3 years ago, so why are so few Doctors prescribing it?

There's now well over 5,000 patients around Australia on various brands and potencies.
Some of the patients are children with treatment-resistant conditions that only seem to be helped by Medical Cannabis.
But some Doctors are resisting prescribing.

Find out more at a seminar in your Capital City during March.
