Was told by a Doctor I wouldn't qualify because it wasn't for myself who'd just had 3 parts of my Right Lung cut out to remove Cancer, problem probably being I'm a Recovering Addict of 28 years, but CB1 Medical made me welcome & helped me in every way possible. I like the Vaping angle as it helps with my attempt at stopping smoking Joints & I actually feel fresher than I have done in years. Had 1st Video Consultation with a Doctor who was very understanding to my Health issues & what could be helped by Weed, I had to pass over my Medical Files & there isn't no guys lying around smoking big joints because the liars at the daily fail forgot to say that you only qualify if you Vape it. You also have to abstain a day or 2 every couple of weeks or so. Huge lies made up about a great cause for the Medically desperate who cannot get proper help elsewhere unless you wanna break the law that is.

Thank you for sharing this, Ann. It’s completely understandable to feel nervous at the start, so we’re really pleased to hear the process felt clear, supportive, and straightforward once you got going.

Our clinical teams work hard to make sure every patient feels listened to and well informed, and it’s lovely to know that helped you feel confident moving forward. We’re glad you took that step, and we’re looking forward to rolling out further enhancements over the coming weeks to make the journey even smoother.

Trading standards gonna be mad

So far not great. Did the enquiry based on the website telling me "CB1 Medical is unique in being able to access your medical records instantly upon receiving your consent, so we can send a cannabis prescription to North Lanarkshire in days rather than weeks" ive found that cb1 medical are misinforming and possibly misselling the whole of scotland. They have this statement for all areas of scotland but received this reply "As you live in Scotland, we can't access your GP records directly through the NHS system" So cb1 cannot access my records i picked this service based on that statement. Ive replied to the email and so far silence. That statement goes against trading standards as they cannot view scottish records. If your scottish avoid.

Thank you for raising this - we’re sorry for the frustration caused and appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

In some circumstances we’re unable to access records directly via NHS systems but where this applies, we can still support patients through alternative routes, such as reviewing records provided by the patient or liaising via other approved methods.

We’re sorry if this wasn’t made clear at the outset and for the delay in response you experienced - that’s not the level of communication we aim to provide. We’d very much welcome the opportunity to discuss this with you directly and help where possible.

Please feel free to contact us at enquiries@cb1medical.com
and a member of the team will be happy to assist.

I ordered Circle 2525 oil from CB1…

I ordered Circle 2525 oil from CB1 Pharmacy over Christmas (dispensed 18th Dec, received 19th Dec). While delivery was prompt, I was disappointed to find that the bottle had an expiry date of 4th Feb 2026—just 48 days from receipt.

My usual daily dose is 0.8 ml, and I take two days off per week as recommended. At this schedule, a 30 ml bottle would take 53 days to finish, meaning the medication would expire 5 days before I could use it fully.

When I asked CB1 Pharmacy whether ordering two bottles during their Christmas promotions would have caused the same issue, they confirmed they would have dispensed two bottles with the same short expiry, making both bottles essentially unusable.

While they have stated that legally they can dispense medicine with slightly more than 28 days left before expiry, I find this unethical and unacceptable. There is now no way of checking medication expiry before ordering, and patients may be left with medication that expires before it can be used.

I do not recommend CB1 Pharmacy. More consideration should be given to ensuring patients receive medication that is actually usable, rather than simply meeting the minimum legal requirements.

When asked who I make a complaint to someone called Raza told me the PHSO. They’re uninterested. I know for a fact the PHSO doesn’t deal with private sector complaints and only public health services complaints.

I encourage everyone with a bad experience to report them to the Quality Care Commission. It’s only when they get a wrap on the wrists for everything they’re doing wrong and how they’re treating people that they will actually start listening. If we all report them the many cannot be ignored.

They’re uninterested in maintaining customers, in essence force you (by charging a fee to send a script elsewhere) to stay with CB1 pharmacy which meets legal dispensing requirements but is unethical in dispensing medicines they know will expire (given the dosage label they affix to the medicine) before you finish the medicine.

UPDATE:

I have asked CB1 today for an escalation route. Today they told me the Financial Ombudsman Service which does not deal with this and again the Parliamentary Health Service Ombudsman which deals with only public health services and not private.

Whilst I see they have replied and they are making things better for other patients this still leaves me £95 out of pocket with an unopened bottle of medicine that will expire before I can use it. I am doing my best to bring this matter to the attention of the government through my MP, and to Care Quality Commission. I am looking for an ADR who can take up my dispute and to this date no refund has been offered.

Thank you for your feedback, and we apologise for the frustration caused by the short-dated stock. We understand how important it is for patients to receive medication that can be fully used.

We are currently updating our formulary to provide more transparency around short-dated stock, so patients can make informed decisions before ordering. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and are committed to improving the experience for all our patients.

Any delivery charges to send prescriptions to another pharmacy reflect the direct cost of Royal Mail Special Delivery, and we do not charge any additional administrative fees for processing prescriptions.

Poor communication and fail to meet promises

Not usually one to post reviews but I feel I need to leave something after some hassle.

I’ve been with CB1 for over a year and delivery has been consistently unreliable. Despite multiple complaints and promises that a new system would fix things, it’s only got worse. Even when paying for next-day delivery and meeting the cut-off time, I still have to chase orders and tracking often arrives after the delivery.

Limited 9–5 weekday support also isn’t great for a private healthcare provider. If reliability and communication matter to you, I’d think twice.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and we’re sorry for the frustration caused by delivery and communication issues. We acknowledge that the introduction of our new system did result in problems, and we appreciate your patience during that period.

We can confirm that these issues have now been resolved, and alongside this we’ve moved to a larger dispensary to improve stock handling and dispatch reliability. Our delivery processes and notifications have been significantly improved as a result.

While our phone lines operate Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm, our email support is available seven days a week from 08:00 to 21:00 to ensure patients can still reach us outside of standard working hours.

We appreciate your feedback, which helps us continue improving the service we provide to our patients.

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry for the confusion and frustration you experienced. While our team aims to be welcoming and supportive, we recognise that the back-and-forth you described is not acceptable.

Please be aware that we operate under strict clinical criteria for both treatment acceptance and medication allowances, which can sometimes result in difficult decisions. That said, we acknowledge that the communication around this should have been clearer, and we apologise for the confusion caused.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

Honest, communicative and helpful.

Honestly, from the first point of contact, it felt much more personal and helpful than other brands.

I was curious if it could help, turns out yes it can, and very well without the constant need for daily meds.

Every phone call, video cal and email has been welcoming, smooth and all questions answered promptly by caring knowledgeable staff.

Prices are competitive and no need to order every month, just when you need to.

If you’re curious, have a chat with them to see what the options are for you.

Thanks guys, you’re all amazing.

I'm not going to waste my time going and writing an essay, all there is to say is they were brilliant and now they are mediocre at best. I haven't had a next day delivery in a couple of months my latest couple of prescriptions have been a week late and the response time from them through email is abysmal. I will be changing after Christmas.
