Accessing Medical Cannabis
Wellford Medical Clinics supports adults registered with a UK GP who are seeking alternative treatment options for ongoing health conditions, including chronic pain and mental health conditions, where other treatments may not have provided adequate relief.
Medical cannabis was legalised in the UK in 2018 and our consultations are carried out by GMC-registered specialist doctors. We support patients across the UK through remote appointments that are designed to be transparent and clinically thorough.

Why Choose Wellford Medical Clinics?
Medical cannabis refers to cannabis-based medicines prescribed by a specialist doctor for specific medical needs. These treatments differ from non-medical or recreational cannabis and are prescribed in controlled formulations and doses.
Where clinically appropriate, medical cannabis may be prescribed in a range of formulations, including:
oils taken orally
vapes
dried flower for vaporisation
Your specialist will discuss suitable options during your consultation, based on your medical history and individual needs.
