Press Release | 10/17/2018
Six Physicians, Nurse Practitioners Also Joining Canabo Medical Clinics

TORONTO, Oct. 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aleafia Health Inc. (TSXV: ALEF; OTCQX: ALEAF, FRA: ARAH) (“Aleafia“) or (the “Company“), one of Canada’s leading, vertically integrated cannabis companies, has made a significant expansion of its medical clinic business, adding three new clinics, six new physicians and a major expansion of telemedicine services for patients.

Aleafia will also add nurse practitioners (NP) to complement physician-led treatment and to meet a significant increase in patient demand. The expansion of telemedicine service is part of a broader management strategy of treating a greater number of patients at reduced cost.

“This expansion is part of Aleafia’s renewed focus on providing the highest quality care for our patients,” said Aleafia Chairman Julian Fantino. “The implementation of telemedicine will allow those with chronic illnesses to receive excellent care directly from their own homes.”

“New and innovative treatment methods will allow Aleafia to rapidly scale our growing medical cannabis clinics while reducing costs,” said Aleafia CEO Geoffrey Benic. “Telemedicine treatment methods will be a major net benefit to both our patients and shareholders, as we acquire new patients who no longer have to travel to seek help.”
