For Patients
Am I Suitable for treatment? Our referral process is designed to help determine which path is right for you. We see patients with a wide variety of conditions and guide them through the entire process, making it as safe and straightforward as possible to access the treatment you need.
How to make an appointment
Our multi-disciplinary team of clinicians see patients based on their specialty – read more about our team here.
Medical cannabis can be used as part of a treatment plan for a wide range of conditions, you can find out more about these on our conditions page.
- You can either book an appointment directly or get a referral from your GP or consultant. You can also contact us directly via the assisted referral form and arrange an eligibility assessment. Download this pack if you would like to further discuss Sapphire with your doctor.
- We check through the information provided and at times may request more information from your doctor. Once accepted, our support team will contact you to arrange an initial appointment.
- At your initial appointment, the specialist will review your medical history and care plans to understand the next stage in treatment and whether medicinal cannabis would benefit you. We collect a range of information from you, some in the form of questionnaires to help us monitor your treatment and advance knowledge about medical cannabis.
* Should your GP or consultant wish to seek further reassurance, we’d be happy to discuss these via email and phone on our Contact Us page.
