Medicinal Cannabis

At Double Bay Doctors, we now offer integrative medicinal cannabis consultations.

Our prescribers of medicinal cannabis are passionate about its potential to treat conditions that have not responded to other medicines, including chronic pain, anxiety and insomnia.
​
Medicinal cannabis can be used to relieve the symptoms of certain medical conditions, and the side effects of some treatments.

There is some evidence that certain medicinal cannabis products may be useful in treating the following conditions:
 

  • Epilepsy

  • Multiple sclerosis

  • Symptoms associated with cancer and cancer treatment (such as nausea, pain and loss of appetite)

  • Pain

  • Symptom relief in palliative care
