MEDICAL CANNABIS (MEDICAL MARIJUANA)
Medical Cannabis
We believe that there is strong evidence for the healing benefit of the cannabis plant (medical marijuana) for certain medical conditions. We evaluate patients for potential benefit from medical cannabis and the appropriateness of a recommendation to the state of Utah for a card that will allow our patients to obtain medical cannabis in one of the medical cannabis pharmacies within the state.
These are some of the conditions that may be appropriately treated with Medical Cannabis and thus may qualify for a Medical Cannabis Card:
