I suffer from Tourette's and chronic back neck and shoulder pain as I spasm in my sleep and weed has been the only thing that has truly helped me over the years , I just wanted to thank you for bringing these clinics to my attention and for all the good work you are doing. You will always be welcome for tea n biscuits here, Thanx a million and peace out.
Thank you Drew for providing this information. I am a very long term user but I did not know anything about the legal route until I came across your channel. You are providing a public service with your information.
for someone with bad anxiety this video really helped me to see how things go down and the type of questions they ask and stuff it just settles my mind a bit to be able to think of how to answer things, I've been trying to build up the courage to sort out a prescription for over a year now and I feel like this is going to help me to pull the trigger on it. thanks bro
I was an anxious mess and a complete bag of nerves before my appointment, but the Dr I spoke with at Mamedica was very supportive and basically wanted me to explain my condition and how I think Cannabis would help (I was honest and open about my past use and how it has helped this far). A few other questions, but all very relaxed and an environment of support, not judgement of any sort. Telling someone who suffers with anxiety 'not to worry' is the same as telling someone with depression to 'just cheer up', but you will be fine, really glad I committed to booking in and getting my prescription sorted - and I am certain you will too. Hope you get yourself the support you want :)
If you have bad anxiety then I really wouldn't suggest smoking weed it will make you have a full blown anxiety attack it has done me a few times but I suppose it depends on the strain I'm fine with indica old school bush type of weed and Thai weed but sativa send me so paranoid I have to try sleep it off lol

Dr Dave was great, so informative and helpful to me on my first starting out in the world of legal medical cannabis. If you aren't sure, nervous or worried about the journey then he is great to help guide you through it because it can look intimidating from the outside. This video would of been great to see before i went through the process to elevate some worries for me so thanks for sharing!
Kez, if you don't mind me asking, i know on the access scheme you get free repeat prescriptions, but how much did the first prescription cost! Feel free not to answer. But be thankful if you could. My appointment is at the end of june. Heres waiting!
It’s not legal yet only as a prescription and That’s in a real grey area as well since drew had 6 cops around him saying shit and he got out of it but still we have many years to come until it’s legalised probably below 50 years but I hear a lot that it’s never going to be legalised like ever cuz it’s the uk and we are shit but who knows I can’t predicted anything so don’t believe me
He’s right, you walk in give them 200 bucks and then you just buy what you want. There is no guidance here. They just give you a license and you have no help figuring out what you need.
Thanks to this vid, I had a consultation with Dr Howells very recently. He's so straightforward and there to HELP now the law has changed. Don't be nervous and if you're thinking of doing the same, make a list (from medbud) of what you would like for the first consultation BEFORE the consultation. They will ask you what medication you want and how much as part of trying to understand your needs. It feels a bit weird but the practitioners (at any clinic) have heard it all and won't bat an eyelid.
Such a relaxed appointment! Very helpful Drew. Thanks for all your sharing. It definitely makes sense to me. I'm going to apply. Taking the black market out of the equation & being legal is a big PLUS.😻
A video about driving while on a weed script would be great. I've been on heavy prescription drugs due to pain from getting very badly burnt and I'm completely fed up with feeling like a zombie. I really want to try medical cannabis but the issue about driving worries me. I can't walk very far due to my feet and legs being so badly damaged so if I couldn't drive I'd pretty much stuck in the house.
As a medical patient, you're likely always going to be over the ridiculous 0.2 limit, you got a statutory defence providing you're not impaired at the road side. If you are found to be impaired then you no longer have that defense so they recommend not driving until you know how cannabis affects you after vaping it (important point to note) so generally 2hours after vaping would be OK.
@@xpandax thanks for the advice. Good to know. I've been worried about it since I got pulled over and they found my grinder with a little bit of bud in it. They just put the weed down the nearest drain so that's no big deal but decided to call a traffic car with a drugs wipe. Standing waiting for the test to arrive and then the 8 mins you have to wait for the results was horrible, especially as I'd been smoking that morning. I was sure I was going to lose my licence. Without my car I'd be screwed. Luckily the test came back negative. I don't know how. I don't know who was more surprised, me or the police. The way i understand it weed stays in your system for about 28 days so I don't know what happened. The only thing I can think of is the test was faulty somehow. I was fine to drive but like you said I'm more than likely over the limit most of the time.
Hey not to sound negative but the heart and cannabis is not a good link, search online and you will see. See: "Marijuana can cause the heart to beat faster and blood pressure to rise, which can be dangerous for people with heart disease. The risk of heart attack is several times higher in the hour after smoking marijuana than it would be normally, research suggests." I'd be very careful giving to someone that already has had heart failure. Just looking out.
Bro some guy was IN on twitter telling me I can’t drive! Saying I drove to the train station in my video 😆 and I’m illegal and not insured! Man went in as well! Lol, I had to tell him my doc has already advised me and I’m not doing anything wrong ffs 🤦♂️. Great vid mate keep it up 💪🙏☯️☮️🕉
I suffer with severe anxiety, so much so I pretty much only leave my house to put the bins out etc. I cant travel at all without feeling panicked and claustrophobic - its literally ruined the past 4 years of my life. I was put on fexofenadine as a teen, now im on sertraline 100mg from 50mg for first year. I also beg my doctor for sleep aids when I have bouts of insomnia which literally drives me to insanity (once to twice a year) they only give me 7 days worth and i have to make that last the year. I cant do this forever - Medical cannabis seems like it could do multiple birds in one stone im so intrigued. I hate to think at some point in my life too im gonna have to go through the withdrawal symptoms when I eventually get off these :(
Love these vids I'm currently in the process with Sapphire medical they have now received my medical records and are reviewing them so I'm hoping to have a consultation pretty soon. Once I get it up and running I think I'm going to switch to Mamedica aswell as they seem so relaxed and I really like the range of flower they have. Keep the content coming bro.
@@irvy1974 I just got an email about an hour ago saying they have reviewed my medical records and booked and paid for my consultation on Tuesday so I really hope this is the start of a new chapter. This will be a complete game changer for me and my condition without having to break any laws.
@@seanclark5165 yes mate I got prescribed 10gs of Milky cake indica dominant hybrid 18% THC and then 50mg CBD 4mg THC per ml oil. 30ml bottle it's useless but first time I was just taking what they gave me. 7 days after the first prescription arrived on the sapphire app it let me request more and I just told them I said in the consultation I smoke on average 2gs a day and yous gave me 10g tub and I managed to get a week out of it could I get another tub to do me until my next consultation which is a week on Tuesday and they didn't even reply they just sent the email with a link to pay for it and it's actually coming between 4-5pm today. My next appointment I'm just going to put the case out there that realistically I need 40gs a month and that's on the low end and tell them I don't want the oil no more and want to pick the 20% THC Gorilla glue for daytime smoke and 25% THC La Kush Cake for night smoke. Don't think it should be a problem. Can't believe how relaxed the whole process has been the hardest part was getting my medical records from the NHS lol
Drew, I been following your content for years. You’ve become familiar face to me and I never get bored of your videos. Kudos on the driving bit because I’m about to go through the process and currently have my license taken after failing swob 2 times 🤦♂️ and don’t want to risk not getting it back. Thanks for clearing that up. Peace bro✌️
Being from New Zealand, we've recently been lucky enough to have access to Medical Cannabis too, similar process, speak to a Cannabis Clinic, tell them if your all ready using or wanting to use Cannabis, pick n chose, pay n wait then enjoy. The best thing about medical cannabis is you know what your getting each and every single time without fail. No more turning up to the dealers house and getting what your given or going without, and the consistency, it doesn't change, its a fantastic thing to finally have.
Thank you for this video. I am an autistic person and nothing else has ever worked for me and getting street stuff is getting far too dangerous because of all the chemical residues and additives they put in it to make more money. The times they are a changin'.
Drew do you have to pay for your repeat prescription with the mamedica access scheme Or just for the product itself, And keep up the good work I didn't know this was possible until I seen your videos ✌
"the only social media that's safe"... y'know there's also the fediverse, right? for over a decade, free software (free as in freedom), federated, non-corporate social media... diaspora, peertube, pixelfed, all the activitypub based ones like all the mastodons, etc etc etc. welcome to the free world, you'll like it here.
Right Drew do me a favour? Let me know, is it worth it for me personally to get a prescription? I often shop around for my Weed I can get plenty of different strains and pay around 180 an ounce. From what I’m seeing a lot of these places have price is there a way higher than that… I’m just not sure if it’s worth doing because obviously it’s just a legally say I’m smoking cannabis. To be honest, I don’t mind if the if the police try and take a couple of grams off me or whatever.. I smoke 2/3 ounce a week
Hay dude, I'm an OG, I'm 47 but I've only just started smoking again, well a few years, after getting tons of meds, that i hate taking now, but I used to smoke hash all the time, back in the day, we never had weed. Now it's just what whatever I get. I've just signed with medicare, same place as u. So abit more help would be nice. Sounds like I'm been on the same meds as u as well. Any advice would be great. Keep the message going dude, more people need to know about this.
Im in Florida and our medical program allows up to 4oz of flower increase from the standard 2.5oz allowance. Ive been getting close to my allowance lately because its been hard to find quality flower. idk how to ask about it without feeling like i smoke too much, which i really dont its just quality problems in my state.
You all have it rough out there. It's not right that it's still illegal there. I have 3 recreational dispensaries within 3 miles of my home. I hope the UK pulls their heads out of their butts.
Budtenders are not allowed to recommend their personal favorite " med" strains. Ex someone with insomnia comes in and is new to "green meds" and asks the budtender what strain is a good starter, they cant say " i blazed this new strain jet fuel". They will come back the next day first thing in the am cause they are so mad they couldnt sleep!
Unfortunately Drew, MAMEDICA are broken. They have become too popular too quickly. Lots of people are paying for consultation and having their appointments cancelled and not rebooked, losing the registration fees! Communication has become so poor with the clinic.
Nice one bro, nice video 👏 I've been wanting to get a medical script for while now, but been SUPER anxious about it, the whole seeing the doctor part but the video has put my mind at rest so now I'm going to go with mamedica defo, thank you drew!!! 🤓🔥
Please make a video about the driving please I’ve had stuggles as it is being a common smoker and relying on driving for work. I want to apply for a card because I do also feel I’m entitled and would be beneficial but never understood how it’d play with the law. Thank you for the amazing information and content you bring Drew!!!🎉
90g a month. I'm not judging but at around £8 a gramm. That's lot of cash to find every month for medication. £720.00.. That's half of the average take home pay in the North of England. So what's the workaround.
@@Cheezus888 yeah, I get you mate. If on medical prescription how come you can't just pay the £12 script charge then get the medication?. Seems expensive but hey ho. Addicts are given suboxone surely weed is cheap to cultivate. I'm confused. Don't these uk pharmacy's have their own warehouses to grow the weed?.
Doing it for the community! I can't do what you do but most of my friends now have a medical prescriptions thanks to me. Kinda your fault as well. Thanks Drew
@@deadmanwalking5576 no don’t play games bro Please don’t take what I sed a bad way I was joking from a comment made on a other vid bro. The gaming is my son Gravedigger bro I got to say it and u no it’s coming right Is that not a dead boring job lol Dead quiet tho I bet 😂😂 Sorry I had to say it
i love how this is all just a really complicated way of buying weed, to make it seem more "medical". Like lets be real, its weed, an actual fake doctor's appointment isnt necessary for it, but i guess its what's necessary until its fully legalized.
Why do they take your video down for showing it, but yet there are a ton of other channels that show it and smoke it in the videos and they don’t get theirs taken down?
It’s so ridiculous you can do this, but weed’s not legal. We’re in a financial crisis - the amount of tax they’d make from it would be massive. It’s time, UK.
I am with Cantourage at present, every month yet another balls up with my prescription and fed the same excuses so I'm changing clinics. Incidentally, I've tried just about every available strain priced low through to high. It's sub standard imo and a very very long way off what other countries are enjoying. Woud you not agree medical cannabis has got that tired worn out look with a smell to match? Pretty sure with your obvious knowledge and experience that you don't really like it either 😂
Im 64 born in kingston Jamaica, and rass things have changed sinse my youth. We grew our own, rubbed the oil to produce challis, then American came with their supper high grade fast grown seeds, and obviously for some it was great because it meant a higher yield that they sold to westerners, we didnt smoke that shyte, we kept to our tradition. Its all messed up now with this 30+thc with 0.2 of the cbds and i see youth now walking with head down hoodie up, backed out tha mind and cant even talk to people. Thc is a psychoactive part of cannabis, it hold no real medical value, yet youth are convinced its all about high thc, ya mad, and will reap what you sow. Ive been working for lutons drug clinic for 9 years and see youth come saying sir im getting enxiaty from cannabis, i ask what they use, its always skunk. The white mans cannabis. But i do think this is good, because as a physician i know what these Beta blockers can do, and this diazipam we are giving to our youth. Ive only watched a few of you're videos, and i commend you as a youth for giving out good possitive vibes on the use of cannabis, but please dont be fooled into this thc is better than a full spectrum cannabis. Too many youth having proplem in the mind threw it. But you do good for the cannabis community, you seem honest, and know what you speak.

Been watching for awhile and tried dipping my foot in, just paid for my cosultion fee on the back of this vid I will def let you know how this works out Keep up the good work Ps could you do a vid on how much all this cost
Thanks Drew great content I’d be very interested to see the video about the driving side of it that would be my only worry not being able to drive thanks 👊🏻
This should be so much more accessible, and not frowned upon. They need to legalise it and sell it in shops. And of you need it over recreational use then youre cleared of paying taxes on it. Get your prescription or buy it a shop. Just like any painkillers. Sold to over 18s with a warning of use. I'd quite like to know the costs of all this too.
I wish my doc was like this. Had a second visit and asked him what he thought about a couple strains and instantly got screamed at like i was trying to tell him how to do his job. Since then, have heard this specific doctor is a pain to deal with and doesnt like typing new strains into his pc.
Drew, just a quick question mate. How much did/does it cost for your first prescription? I understand you get repeat prescriptions free. But how much for all that first one, if you don't mind answering. Cheers for getting this information pit there.😊
Pause 3:00 Can only Supply for a Month 😲🧐 My Australian Scripts can last up to 9 months. I'm guessing more depending on the patient and Thier condition, Edit & Pause again around 4:30. Can come in 5'10' Or 15 grams. Our tubs come in 7, 10, 15Gs, apparently 30gs or ounce haven't seen it myself. I haven't seen where you can order a certain type of medicine gram wise ours come as is....
@@RynossGamingmusic england is still really not that open with drug use and laws. There are major politicians that want to male weed even mpre controlled while the rest of the world is legalising it
i live in a country where medical marijuana is technically legal but no doctor prescribes it except for some very rare and extreme cases. I’m moving to the UK in 2 months and i can’t wait to finally medicate legally
Mate it needs to be legal to grow in your own home in the UK full stop. You wouldn't need all these government funded company's knowing your private information and taking your money you could have it for free.
Drew mate one question is this medicinal weed microwaved im regestered with another pharmacy but not bought any since before christmas because of this reason cheers bro peace ✌️
I have Ms have been using cannabis for about 20 years I've used lyphie for 2 prescriptions and very disappointed I may try the same company as you do drew good video Cool video
In the same boat as you pal. Medical cannabis has a long way to go with regards to quality. Some is better than others but all have suffered bad batches recently, there is a lack of consistency across the board.
I’ve been thinking about this for a while. I have general anxiety disorder and arthritis in my right knee from a football injury when I was a teenager both diagnosed.

If you aren't sure, nervous or worried about the journey then he is great to help guide you through it because it can look intimidating from the outside.
This video would of been great to see before i went through the process to elevate some worries for me so thanks for sharing!
Kez, if you don't mind me asking, i know on the access scheme you get free repeat prescriptions, but how much did the first prescription cost! Feel free not to answer. But be thankful if you could. My appointment is at the end of june. Heres waiting!
@@waynemarsh8058Hey man I suffer from schizophrenia and soon have my appointment but im also wondering
Hopefully this is the start of medical bud becoming far more accepted and known about in the uk
It’s not legal yet only as a prescription and That’s in a real grey area as well since drew had 6 cops around him saying shit and he got out of it but still we have many years to come until it’s legalised probably below 50 years but I hear a lot that it’s never going to be legalised like ever cuz it’s the uk and we are shit but who knows I can’t predicted anything so don’t believe me
@@Fluffymck i know lol?
@@cj_710 good to know your a die hard fan bruh now go and smoke
@@Fluffymck bro what lol i was just saying I know about the prescriptions and how it all works🤯
@@cj_710 good bye then
Wow Drew, I loved this, thankyou. Can you imagine in years to come children can say at school..."When I grow up I want to be the Weed Doctor!" 🙏
While the school says NO ! Your not
Yeah watch the teachers laugh at him
Meanwhile in the US.”why are you here today?” . “Uhhh headaches n shit” “HERES YOUR CARD DOLALRS PLZ”
What state do you live in 😂
He’s right, you walk in give them 200 bucks and then you just buy what you want. There is no guidance here. They just give you a license and you have no help figuring out what you need.
Thanks to this vid, I had a consultation with Dr Howells very recently. He's so straightforward and there to HELP now the law has changed. Don't be nervous and if you're thinking of doing the same, make a list (from medbud) of what you would like for the first consultation BEFORE the consultation. They will ask you what medication you want and how much as part of trying to understand your needs. It feels a bit weird but the practitioners (at any clinic) have heard it all and won't bat an eyelid.
You are so right about listening to your patients. Something all doctors need to do.
THIS
Such a relaxed appointment! Very helpful Drew. Thanks for all your sharing. It definitely makes sense to me. I'm going to apply.
Taking the black market out of the equation & being legal is a big PLUS.😻
@@notthatguyagain.2225 Ong
Amazing stuff Drew! People need to see that it's not long and heavy and just like an informal chat. Need to see the driving info mate. Respect 👍
i love this video drew, also your doctor seems to be very professional and down to earth. Stay medicated 💪
A video about driving while on a weed script would be great.
I've been on heavy prescription drugs due to pain from getting very badly burnt and I'm completely fed up with feeling like a zombie.
I really want to try medical cannabis but the issue about driving worries me. I can't walk very far due to my feet and legs being so badly damaged so if I couldn't drive I'd pretty much stuck in the house.
As a medical patient, you're likely always going to be over the ridiculous 0.2 limit, you got a statutory defence providing you're not impaired at the road side.
If you are found to be impaired then you no longer have that defense so they recommend not driving until you know how cannabis affects you after vaping it (important point to note) so generally 2hours after vaping would be OK.
@@xpandax thanks for the advice. Good to know.
I've been worried about it since I got pulled over and they found my grinder with a little bit of bud in it.
They just put the weed down the nearest drain so that's no big deal but decided to call a traffic car with a drugs wipe.
Standing waiting for the test to arrive and then the 8 mins you have to wait for the results was horrible, especially as I'd been smoking that morning.
I was sure I was going to lose my licence. Without my car I'd be screwed.
Luckily the test came back negative. I don't know how.
I don't know who was more surprised, me or the police.
The way i understand it weed stays in your system for about 28 days so I don't know what happened. The only thing I can think of is the test was faulty somehow.
I was fine to drive but like you said I'm more than likely over the limit most of the time.
Nice one Drew for this. Had my video interview this morning & yeah all good expect a delivery in next couple of days. Peace man.
My mother has heart failure and because of you she has her first medical card,thank you drewsif💚
Hey not to sound negative but the heart and cannabis is not a good link, search online and you will see. See:
"Marijuana can cause the heart to beat faster and blood pressure to rise, which can be dangerous for people with heart disease. The risk of heart attack is several times higher in the hour after smoking marijuana than it would be normally, research suggests." I'd be very careful giving to someone that already has had heart failure. Just looking out.
hope for the best for your mother, hopefully medical marijuana continues to help people
The Nines vid was sick bro wasn’t expecting to see you in it!🔥
Bro some guy was IN on twitter telling me I can’t drive! Saying I drove to the train station in my video 😆 and I’m illegal and not insured! Man went in as well! Lol, I had to tell him my doc has already advised me and I’m not doing anything wrong ffs 🤦♂️. Great vid mate keep it up 💪🙏☯️☮️🕉
I suffer with severe anxiety, so much so I pretty much only leave my house to put the bins out etc. I cant travel at all without feeling panicked and claustrophobic - its literally ruined the past 4 years of my life. I was put on fexofenadine as a teen, now im on sertraline 100mg from 50mg for first year. I also beg my doctor for sleep aids when I have bouts of insomnia which literally drives me to insanity (once to twice a year) they only give me 7 days worth and i have to make that last the year. I cant do this forever - Medical cannabis seems like it could do multiple birds in one stone im so intrigued. I hate to think at some point in my life too im gonna have to go through the withdrawal symptoms when I eventually get off these :(
Love these vids I'm currently in the process with Sapphire medical they have now received my medical records and are reviewing them so I'm hoping to have a consultation pretty soon. Once I get it up and running I think I'm going to switch to Mamedica aswell as they seem so relaxed and I really like the range of flower they have. Keep the content coming bro.
Sappire a good company.
The staff go above and beyond
@@irvy1974 I just got an email about an hour ago saying they have reviewed my medical records and booked and paid for my consultation on Tuesday so I really hope this is the start of a new chapter. This will be a complete game changer for me and my condition without having to break any laws.
@@jeffjukedj1762 Any news?
Is the weed good? Like does it taste okay? I'm thinking bout going this route too
@@seanclark5165 yes mate I got prescribed 10gs of Milky cake indica dominant hybrid 18% THC and then 50mg CBD 4mg THC per ml oil. 30ml bottle it's useless but first time I was just taking what they gave me. 7 days after the first prescription arrived on the sapphire app it let me request more and I just told them I said in the consultation I smoke on average 2gs a day and yous gave me 10g tub and I managed to get a week out of it could I get another tub to do me until my next consultation which is a week on Tuesday and they didn't even reply they just sent the email with a link to pay for it and it's actually coming between 4-5pm today. My next appointment I'm just going to put the case out there that realistically I need 40gs a month and that's on the low end and tell them I don't want the oil no more and want to pick the 20% THC Gorilla glue for daytime smoke and 25% THC La Kush Cake for night smoke. Don't think it should be a problem. Can't believe how relaxed the whole process has been the hardest part was getting my medical records from the NHS lol
Drew, I been following your content for years. You’ve become familiar face to me and I never get bored of your videos. Kudos on the driving bit because I’m about to go through the process and currently have my license taken after failing swob 2 times 🤦♂️ and don’t want to risk not getting it back. Thanks for clearing that up. Peace bro✌️
Drew dude, they make a really nice experience, and put me at ease. Your advise has been ace, thank you so much.
Being from New Zealand, we've recently been lucky enough to have access to Medical Cannabis too, similar process, speak to a Cannabis Clinic, tell them if your all ready using or wanting to use Cannabis, pick n chose, pay n wait then enjoy. The best thing about medical cannabis is you know what your getting each and every single time without fail. No more turning up to the dealers house and getting what your given or going without, and the consistency, it doesn't change, its a fantastic thing to finally have.
Thank you for this video. I am an autistic person and nothing else has ever worked for me and getting street stuff is getting far too dangerous because of all the chemical residues and additives they put in it to make more money. The times they are a changin'.

Drew do you have to pay for your repeat prescription with the mamedica access scheme
Or just for the product itself,
And keep up the good work
I didn't know this was possible until I seen your videos ✌
Grate video bro love ur content and excellent editing
"the only social media that's safe"... y'know there's also the fediverse, right? for over a decade, free software (free as in freedom), federated, non-corporate social media... diaspora, peertube, pixelfed, all the activitypub based ones like all the mastodons, etc etc etc. welcome to the free world, you'll like it here.
Right Drew do me a favour? Let me know, is it worth it for me personally to get a prescription? I often shop around for my Weed I can get plenty of different strains and pay around 180 an ounce. From what I’m seeing a lot of these places have price is there a way higher than that… I’m just not sure if it’s worth doing because obviously it’s just a legally say I’m smoking cannabis. To be honest, I don’t mind if the if the police try and take a couple of grams off me or whatever.. I smoke 2/3 ounce a week
Hay dude, I'm an OG, I'm 47 but I've only just started smoking again, well a few years, after getting tons of meds, that i hate taking now, but I used to smoke hash all the time, back in the day, we never had weed. Now it's just what whatever I get. I've just signed with medicare, same place as u. So abit more help would be nice. Sounds like I'm been on the same meds as u as well.
Any advice would be great.
Keep the message going dude, more people need to know about this.
The most civilized drug deal I’ve ever seen 😂
Im in Florida and our medical program allows up to 4oz of flower increase from the standard 2.5oz allowance. Ive been getting close to my allowance lately because its been hard to find quality flower. idk how to ask about it without feeling like i smoke too much, which i really dont its just quality problems in my state.
You all have it rough out there. It's not right that it's still illegal there. I have 3 recreational dispensaries within 3 miles of my home. I hope the UK pulls their heads out of their butts.
Budtenders are not allowed to recommend their personal favorite " med" strains. Ex someone with insomnia comes in and is new to "green meds" and asks the budtender what strain is a good starter, they cant say " i blazed this new strain jet fuel". They will come back the next day first thing in the am cause they are so mad they couldnt sleep!
Unfortunately Drew, MAMEDICA are broken. They have become too popular too quickly. Lots of people are paying for consultation and having their appointments cancelled and not rebooked, losing the registration fees! Communication has become so poor with the clinic.
Nice one bro, nice video 👏 I've been wanting to get a medical script for while now, but been SUPER anxious about it, the whole seeing the doctor part but the video has put my mind at rest so now I'm going to go with mamedica defo, thank you drew!!! 🤓🔥
Please make a video about the driving please I’ve had stuggles as it is being a common smoker and relying on driving for work. I want to apply for a card because I do also feel I’m entitled and would be beneficial but never understood how it’d play with the law. Thank you for the amazing information and content you bring Drew!!!🎉
You my friend are a god send. I had no clue this could be done in the uk.
90g a month. I'm not judging but at around £8 a gramm. That's lot of cash to find every month for medication. £720.00.. That's half of the average take home pay in the North of England. So what's the workaround.
@@Cheezus888 yeah, I get you mate. If on medical prescription how come you can't just pay the £12 script charge then get the medication?. Seems expensive but hey ho. Addicts are given suboxone surely weed is cheap to cultivate. I'm confused. Don't these uk pharmacy's have their own warehouses to grow the weed?.
Doing it for the community!
I can't do what you do but most of my friends now have a medical prescriptions thanks to me. Kinda your fault as well. Thanks Drew

Dead quiet tho I bet 😂😂
Sorry I had to say it
Epic bro, love ya content. Thanks for this insight, been looking a lot into this, your videos have been very helpful.
Honestly whenever i look for info about bud and products i only find Drews videos to be useful
Google ?☺
i love how this is all just a really complicated way of buying weed, to make it seem more "medical". Like lets be real, its weed, an actual fake doctor's appointment isnt necessary for it, but i guess its what's necessary until its fully legalized.
You are a legend, I'm now signed up :D First order arrives monday
Love how much info u provide from each and every video and make it interesting keep up the good vids. And the twitch it always fun to watch 👍
It's ok mate, we're all a bit mental at the end of the day 😎
Nice one Drew saw it on the mamedica page the other day big up and thanks for sharing the education 👍
Why do they take your video down for showing it, but yet there are a ton of other channels that show it and smoke it in the videos and they don’t get theirs taken down?
It’s so ridiculous you can do this, but weed’s not legal. We’re in a financial crisis - the amount of tax they’d make from it would be massive. It’s time, UK.
I am with Cantourage at present, every month yet another balls up with my prescription and fed the same excuses so I'm changing clinics. Incidentally, I've tried just about every available strain priced low through to high. It's sub standard imo and a very very long way off what other countries are enjoying. Woud you not agree medical cannabis has got that tired worn out look with a smell to match?
Pretty sure with your obvious knowledge and experience that you don't really like it either 😂
Im 64 born in kingston Jamaica, and rass things have changed sinse my youth. We grew our own, rubbed the oil to produce challis, then American came with their supper high grade fast grown seeds, and obviously for some it was great because it meant a higher yield that they sold to westerners, we didnt smoke that shyte, we kept to our tradition. Its all messed up now with this 30+thc with 0.2 of the cbds and i see youth now walking with head down hoodie up, backed out tha mind and cant even talk to people. Thc is a psychoactive part of cannabis, it hold no real medical value, yet youth are convinced its all about high thc, ya mad, and will reap what you sow. Ive been working for lutons drug clinic for 9 years and see youth come saying sir im getting enxiaty from cannabis, i ask what they use, its always skunk. The white mans cannabis. But i do think this is good, because as a physician i know what these Beta blockers can do, and this diazipam we are giving to our youth. Ive only watched a few of you're videos, and i commend you as a youth for giving out good possitive vibes on the use of cannabis, but please dont be fooled into this thc is better than a full spectrum cannabis. Too many youth having proplem in the mind threw it. But you do good for the cannabis community, you seem honest, and know what you speak.
man said 3.5 to a Q a day my man 😅😅 I suffer from crohns disease diagnosed 2017, and smoke weed to enable me to relieve pain, eat, and have a pleasent toilet experience... Been aware i could be eligible for a cannabis card for a few years, deffo going to enquire with Mamedica, THANkyou DREW x
@@userUUUEEE same / I've found out eating heavy amounts of gluten / dairy will trigger me
Been watching for awhile and tried dipping my foot in, just paid for my cosultion fee on the back of this vid
I will def let you know how this works out
Keep up the good work
Ps could you do a vid on how much all this cost
Thanks Drew great content I’d be very interested to see the video about the driving side of it that would be my only worry not being able to drive thanks 👊🏻
Thank you for all this info recently. Helped me tons to get it all sorted for my self. Much appreciated bud. Oh an love the vids
definatley want to hear about the driving side as that has always been a concern for me .
Oh my employers as a forklift driver really going to love this 😁♥️👍🤣🤣🤣
How can you test the thc percent etc and show on your mobile phone?
Signed up with them today. Sorry to hear they put you on citralopram. That stuff hospitalised me within 2 hours. Evil stuff. Keep up the good work.
This should be so much more accessible, and not frowned upon.
They need to legalise it and sell it in shops.
And of you need it over recreational use then youre cleared of paying taxes on it.
Get your prescription or buy it a shop.
Just like any painkillers. Sold to over 18s with a warning of use.
I'd quite like to know the costs of all this too.
Do they contact your doctor and all that or just take your word for it regarding medications?
They don't take your word for it. You have to provide your Summary Care Record as proof which you request from your GP
the ridiculousness of having to see a weed dr but being able to get benzos and opiates from your GP who googles everything :P
Exactly.
It's NICE and government that make them stupid rules.
Thinking they know best.
No one has ever died with weed.
Plenty have with opiates
One tip I not seen mentioned by many. If you have a heart condition, don’t not mention smoking in your consultation. Just a heads up
Drew you are legit saving peoples lifes 🧡🧡❤❤
Ahh sick, hes my Doc too! What a guy! Its jokes nobody still believes me i get my bud on script now. Drew, lifesaver bro. x
I wish my doc was like this.
Had a second visit and asked him what he thought about a couple strains and instantly got screamed at like i was trying to tell him how to do his job.
Since then, have heard this specific doctor is a pain to deal with and doesnt like typing new strains into his pc.
Drew is going to go down in history for changing the cannabis in the uk
I've literally just registered, I hope they don't get too many patients and service suffers.
I hear good things though.
Drew, just a quick question mate. How much did/does it cost for your first prescription? I understand you get repeat prescriptions free. But how much for all that first one, if you don't mind answering. Cheers for getting this information pit there.😊
Hi bud
How much is yur script a mth and wots the fees 4 joining em
Lmao my doctor was not as enthusiastic
“Oh your eligible? Ok Next” was my experience 😂
Good idea fella about the driving
It’s soo cool that you were in nines new song video your blowing tf up and you deserve it drew 👊🏻
Who is nine

Pause 3:00 Can only Supply for a Month 😲🧐 My Australian Scripts can last up to 9 months. I'm guessing more depending on the patient and Thier condition,
Edit & Pause again around 4:30. Can come in 5'10' Or 15 grams. Our tubs come in 7, 10, 15Gs, apparently 30gs or ounce haven't seen it myself. I haven't seen where you can order a certain type of medicine gram wise ours come as is....
This is England, not Australia. So yes, there are differences.
@@badoing7390 Yes there for you'd think you'd have a better system since you're part or Europe
@@RynossGamingmusic england is still really not that open with drug use and laws. There are major politicians that want to male weed even mpre controlled while the rest of the world is legalising it
i live in a country where medical marijuana is technically legal but no doctor prescribes it except for some very rare and extreme cases. I’m moving to the UK in 2 months and i can’t wait to finally medicate legally
Great video it’s really good to be getting this info out there 🎉
Mate it needs to be legal to grow in your own home in the UK full stop. You wouldn't need all these government funded company's knowing your private information and taking your money you could have it for free.
Say you get 9 pots of 10 go so 90grams for the month.
How much are you payig on your prescription. Just a standard prescription fee or what laa
Drew mate one question is this medicinal weed microwaved im regestered with another pharmacy but not bought any since before christmas because of this reason cheers bro peace ✌️
Microwaved? Just slap it in there like a tin of beans. What you mean, bro?
I had the same doctor as you and he was lovely and im waiting for my script to be sent to the pharmacy :)
I have Ms have been using cannabis for about 20 years
I've used lyphie for 2 prescriptions and very disappointed I may try the same company as you do drew good video
Cool video
In the same boat as you pal. Medical cannabis has a long way to go with regards to quality. Some is better than others but all have suffered bad batches recently, there is a lack of consistency across the board.
I’ve been thinking about this for a while. I have general anxiety disorder and arthritis in my right knee from a football injury when I was a teenager both diagnosed.
I wouldn’t expect a weed doctor to look any other way.
Cheers for showing these videos. Didn't know how these consultants and docs question you
Drew you deffo need to do a vid on storing big amounts for long time and keep fresh I’m really having trouble, is it best to keep in packs or glass jars 🫙 people ?
Dr David is amazing ! He was my first doctor I saw at mamedica
Same here. Definitely the best doctor I have spoken to so far.
Just about to have my appointment in AUS, I've been putting it off cause I don't like to talk about what I've been through but this helped calm my nerves alot so thanks mate
How'd it end up going mate? Who'd you go with in the end?
Respect Drew. Happy holidays and bless new year 2024
Drew I suffer from chronic anxiety, its one of the worst things to live with on a daily basis...I smoke daily for my treatment.
My question I have to ask is do you also struggle with biting your finger nails to the point they bleed?
I've been a medial used for just over a year now thanks to your vids putting me on! It's really great to see more info like this being put out there, hope that more and more people see this try to apply themselves
hello how much does it cost you a month if you don't mind me asking you?
Only medication you can say what you want and how much lol
