Yet a recent quantitative research study, commissioned by cannabis healthcare brand Cannaceutica, of more than 400 health care professionals has revealed that most physicians lack knowledge of medicinal cannabis, with 65% saying that they have been asked about medical marijuana as a treatment for chronic pain but were unable to answer their patients’ questions.
