The online program is easy to use, interesting, efficient and comprehensive.

I would highly recommend their online programs to any of my colleagues and in fact will likely use The Answer Page for the duration of my career,” Bryan Doner, DO, CHWS, FAPWCA, FACHM.

“Whether or not doctors or other healthcare providers have any intention of recommending medical cannabis for patient care, they all need to be well educated in this clinical area because their patients will be seeking their expert advice and guidance for this important medication. Further, some patients may already be utilizing medical cannabis and doctors and other healthcare providers will need to be aware of the physiological effects of cannabis as well as potential drug interactions. As such, expertise in medical cannabis will be paramount for most doctors, pharmacists, nurses, and other healthcare providers if they wish to continue to be that respected guide for their patients’ healthcare.” –Stephen B. Corn, MD The Answer Page
