Because I left Medicann IPS won't touch me. I left Medicann and went for big nasty, because big nasty have a wider range of non irradiated flower. To be honest I can't stand the irritated flower. Also big nasty charge alot less for the same products then medicann. One stain of flower was half the price medicann was charging, compared to big nasty. Just wish they didn't mess my application up. Been weeks and big nasty haven't been able to rectify it.
The only issue I have, is, that not enough products come through from IPS and you have to be quick most times to get the bargains otherwise its an excellent clinic that suits my pockets at the moment, talking about pockets, I've got to renew my car insurance

Can't you start the process again with BNM that to me would be simpler
Tied that. Not possible. Even had someone high up at bug nasty medical fighting to sort it out, but even he was having no luck. They put me through for mental health not my disability. As I don't have mental health issues, I failed. When they realised there mistake, but don't have the process in place to reverse it. Or put me through on a new application with my disability. Trust me I've tried everything I can. Daily phone calls for weeks and weeks. Without any success. Tried to go back to Medicann and they said no because I've been discharged, I'm unable to rejoin or do a new application with them.The only issue I have, is, that not enough products come through from IPS and you have to be quick most times to get the bargains otherwise its an excellent clinic that suits my pockets at the moment, talking about pockets, I've got to renew my car insurance

Ffs mate I feel for you there, there must be something you can do about all this rather than running around in circles to undo the mistakes.
I've not heard of this before only people who are deemed unsuitable because of Mental health issues. My mental health issues are caused by my Neuropathic pain and other issues I have and it hasn't been an issue for me.
I hope you get this sorted and someone here can guide you in the right direction but it seems your going to have to probably appeal to correct all this somehow somewhere
CB1 Medical or Cannabis Clinic Cardiff Cardiff one or even Curaleaf or if you're up for it Releaf?
Make an application template and just randomly launch it off out there and sit back and wait for the phone to pop off!!! I reckon CB1 Medical will still call you to onboard you, even if there's a nuclear war on...

Hello, I am a new patient and was wondering if my experience with Dispensed is typical... I had a consultation on day 1 in which I was accepted for treatment. In consultation with the doc a strain was selected and I was told the prescription would be reviewed on day 5 by their multi diciplinary team. I checked their dashboard the following week and day after day is said my application was under review. I called them on day 10 and was told they would email within 24 hours... no email. I called again on day 11 and was told I would be called the next morning... no call. I phoned again on day 15 and was told i would receive an email and by the end of day 16 and after an email complaining about the delays, conflicting information and lack of any response my prescription was visible on their dashboard. It is now day 19 and my physical prescription has still not been received/processed by the pharmacy, so I am still unable to even place an order for my prescribed medication. Trying to be a patient patient, but it seems it might be quicker trying again from scratch with another clinic?
Sorry to here this, i don't know what the hold up could be? Personally I don't think I could have waited as long as you have, unless I had some back up bm. If it was me i'd try another clinic that offers free consultations, there's a few clinics that don't charge for consultations, Medicann, Intergro, Airmed and Lyphe for Veterans and i think BNM to name a few. Hope you get sorted soon mate
I agree with dooby doo above as this would of tested anyone's patience and is an ominous sign for the future and also you would have more choice of medications and more input in choosing your medications elsewhere if that is suited to you
Unfortunately, this was the worst medical cannabis clinic experience I’ve had in over three years as a patient.
From the outset, I found the consultant quite dismissive and felt I had very little input into my treatment. All of my strains were selected for me, and they were priced around £8–£9 per gram, which I personally found expensive compared to products I’d been prescribed at other clinics. The £0 clinic fees initially seemed very appealing, but I quickly realised that the higher-priced flower likely offset those savings.
My first follow-up appointment was where things really went downhill. I found the nurse quite combative, and as someone prescribed medical cannabis for mental health, I found the interaction incredibly distressing. I explained that I didn’t need all of the items on my prescription because I still had medication left from my previous prescription, which had been issued less than a month earlier. Rather than feeling listened to, I was made to feel guilty for saying so. I ended the consultation in tears and was physically shaking afterwards.
I submitted a formal complaint about my experience and requested a discharge letter. Unfortunately, my complaint wasn’t acknowledged, and after five days I had to chase the clinic again just to obtain my discharge paperwork.
I don’t share this to put anyone off, because everyone’s experience is different, but for me this was by far my worst experience as a medical cannabis patient. I regretted choosing the clinic and transferred to Medicann shortly afterwards, where my experience was significantly more positive.
Having now been with several clinics, I would personally rank all of the others I’ve used above this one (with the exception of Releaf). If you’re new to medical cannabis, the £0 clinic fees are understandably attractive, and being a doctor-led clinic may suit some patients who prefer the clinician to choose their medication. For me, though, the formulary felt very limited, I didn’t feel involved in decisions about my treatment, and overall I left feeling more like a number than a patient.

Sorry to hear this, you won't hopefully go wrong with Medicann
, being able to choose your own meds that suit your budget is great, especially if you've used Cannabis for years like myself. Medicann so far have had the flower that suits me and my budget, it's a lot of the battle out of the way. I remember my first clinic I was with where I could not choose my own flower £9g on 40/50g was outrageous, that was over 2 years ago.
