    Description:

    Welcome to "The Sanskara Patient Podcast," your essential guide to navigating the complex world of medical cannabis in the United Kingdom. I'm your host, Sal Aziz, and I'm thrilled to introduce you to this groundbreaking series, where we'll explore the transformative potential of medical cannabis and the journey of patients who rely on it.

    In November 2018, the United Kingdom witnessed a pivotal moment when the government took a significant step forward by legalizing the use of medical cannabis. This legislation opened new doors of hope for patients who had long been seeking alternative treatment options for various medical conditions.

    Throughout this series, we'll dive deep into the world of medical cannabis, uncovering its history, exploring its many applications, and discussing the evolving legislative landscape in the UK. Together, we'll journey through the triumphs and tribulations of patients who have experienced the profound impact of medical cannabis on their lives.

    We'll be engaging with patients, healthcare professionals, legal experts, and advocates to shed light on the challenges, successes, and stories that have emerged since the 2018 legislative change. We'll explore the hurdles patients face in accessing medical cannabis, the complexities of dosage and treatment plans, and the ongoing efforts to expand the understanding of this remarkable plant within the medical community.

    Join us on "The Patient Podcast" as we embark on a mission to inform, empower, and inspire. Whether you're a patient seeking answers, a healthcare professional looking to learn more, or simply curious about the potential of medical cannabis, our podcast will provide valuable insights, expert perspectives, and heartfelt narratives.
