The importance of continuing education on cannabis in medicine is very important. Only a few doctors have come into contact with this topic so far. Further training for medical professionals in this area is urgently needed. The PHYTOMED events offer a unique opportunity to expand knowledge and understand current developments.
We would like to encourage you to actively inform your doctors about these training opportunities. Solid training enables medical professionals to offer their patients the best possible care. Many thanks to PHYTOMED AG for organizing these informative and educational events.
The Association MEDCAN has been campaigning for almost ten years to ensure that patients in Switzerland can use cannabis as medicine. Become a member or support us with a donation .
