Medical cannabis was legalised across the UK in 2018 but its availability is strictly limited, making products difficult to access on the NHS. The Sapphire Medical Clinic will offer cannabis flowers, oil and gel to patients who are referred by GPs.
Mikael Sodergren, Sapphire’s managing director, said: “We have already seen first-hand how medical cannabis is transforming lives. That’s why we are delighted to be opening our doors to patients in Aberdeen.”
Michael Platt, a clinician specialising in pain, added: “It is estimated that over 1.4 million people across the UK take cannabis to help alleviate the symptoms of a medical condition. The overwhelming majority of these people will have felt they have had no option other than to resort to the black market, and many of them will be deeply troubled by having to do so.
“By opening the clinic in Aberdeen we will be giving patients a legal, safe and medically sound route to access what they need. The cost in some cases might be slightly higher but the patient will have the benefit of peace of mind.”
