Start your journey to a better quality of life today with the
fastest medical cannabis clinic in the UK.
Medical cannabis offers an effective and sustainable alternative for managing pain, improving sleep, stabilising mood, reducing anxiety, and cutting reliance on treatments with more severe and often detrimental side effects.
The active compounds in medical cannabis, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), stimulate the endocannabinoid system within the human body to produce therapeutic benefits which can help patients to manage symptoms for a wide range of health conditions.
CB1 Medical was established by a specialist team of Consultant Clinicians at the award-winning Willows Health, the largest NHS primary care service in the Midlands, which is currently serving over 65,000 patients.
Our Consultants, who have decades of experience in pain management, have seen the overwhelmingly positive impact that medical cannabis has had on the lives of their patients and are now looking to raise awareness and help others suffering with severe chronic pain.
CB1 Medical is unique in being able to access your medical records instantly upon receiving your consent, so you don’t have to wait to begin treatment and start your journey towards a better quality of life.
In all other private cannabis clinics, patients must supply a Summary Care Record and a list of prescriptions before they can be offered treatment. These can only be obtained from a GP and some patients can wait up to 2 months to receive their records.
Our new app has been designed to give patients a quick and simple way to manage their cannabis treatment plan.
With the app, you’ll be able to book consultations with your doctor, track your health goals, view our formulary and reorder your prescriptions – all from a tap of your phone!

I was curious about this approach for my condition, so this seemed to be well worth looking into, the staff were fantastic, very down to earth & helpful without any discomfort. I’m so glad I filled in the form, I am 50% better than I was before I started, The symptoms have reduced, my mood has improved and my sleep pattern has improved. I only see positive results so far.
Edit: in month 3 now, and quality of life has absolutely improved.
September 2023
I started using CB1 Medical a month ago, I was cautious at first as it wasn’t a route that I had considered in much depth. The service has been excellent from the first appointment to the receipt of my medication. There are no hidden costs, it is all clearly laid out in the beginning, I can recommend using their services.
Update, I’ve had my second appointment and it was just as good. Clear communication and fair pricing of appointments.
August 2023
Every interaction has been met with professionalism and kindness, and I felt understood and cared for. The responses and turn around for appointments were very quick too. I would definitely recommend this service.
August 2023
So far so good! Amazingly friendly staff and willing to spend the time listening to your issues in detail. Very quickly to arrange appointments and also discreet.
We are currently the only clinic in the UK that can access
your medical records instantly with your consent, unlike other
clinics that must request this information from your GP.
We recommend using our dedicated online dispensary,
CB1 Pharmacy, for a seamless service and the fastest
way to get your medication.

Medical cannabis is a plant-based medicine which has been legal in the UK since 2018.
The active compounds in medical cannabis, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) stimulate the endocannabinoid system within the human body. This can benefit patients by helping to manage pain, improve sleep and appetite, reduce anxiety and nausea, and stabilise mood. It is therefore useful in managing symptoms for a wide range of health conditions.
Medical cannabis is an effective and sustainable alternative. It offers a personalised approach to treatment, allowing patients to choose specific strengths and delivery methods, and helping to reduce their reliance on medications with more severe and often detrimental side effects.
Yes, the use of medical cannabis within the UK was made legal on 1st November 2018.
Medical cannabis differs significantly from over-the-counter CBD products.
Medical cannabis contains controlled amounts of THC and CBD, both components are necessary for the relief of multiple medical conditions. Over-the-counter CBD products cannot legally contain more than 0.3% THC. While there is some evidence supporting the use of CBD alone for conditions such as anxiety, incorporating THC appears to be more beneficial for most conditions.
Medical cannabis can only be prescribed by Specialist Consultants who are registered with the General Medical Council and it is regulated by the MHRA (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency); the organisation responsible for ensuring the safety, quality, and effectiveness of medicines in the UK.
In parallel, over-the-counter CBD products can be purchased without a prescription. They are not medicinal products and they are regulated by the FSA (Food Standards Agency). Studies have shown that over-the-counter CBD products are often mislabelled, with 69% not containing the amount of CBD claimed, and some products have even failed laboratory testing for heavy metals, yeast, and mould.
You will be offered an initial appointment with one of our Specialist Consultants and a follow-up appointment at 3 weeks. You will then need only one check-up per year going forward.
Each consultation is usually charged at £50. However for 2024, new patients will only pay one fee of £50 for their whole first year of consultations. This fee will be refunded if we decide that you are not eligible for treatment.
If you’re a veteran or ex-emergency services we are more than happy to offer all your consultations free of charge. Please speak to our team if you’d like to find out more.
Following your consultation, your case will be discussed with at least one other health professional to ensure that the recommended treatment is appropriate. This is called a multi-disciplinary team meeting (MDT), and you will be informed of the outcome the following day.
If approved for treatment, your prescription will be sent to our preferred pharmacy and they will contact you via the CB1 Medical App to arrange payment and delivery.
Medications that are in stock will be delivered within 3-5 working days. Medications that are not in stock can take up to 2 weeks to arrive.
Only a handful of patients have secured NHS prescriptions since medical cannabis was legalised in the UK.
Widespread awareness of the benefits of medical cannabis is generally still lacking and NHS practices face other barriers to prescribing, such as additional funding required to cover prescriptions. It’s likely that access to medical cannabis via the NHS will improve but progress so far has been very slow.
