How the Curaleaf referral pathway works
The clinical decision sits with Curaleaf Clinic. Manchester Chemist helps patients start the referral route and can dispense prescriptions sent to us after Curaleaf approval.

If suitable, Curaleaf can invite the patient to a virtual consultation with a condition specialist. The case is then reviewed by their clinical team.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers for patients searching for medical cannabis referral in Manchester, Curaleaf Clinic eligibility, and prescription dispensing through Manchester Chemist.
Does Manchester Chemist prescribe medical cannabis?
No. Manchester Chemist does not prescribe medical cannabis and does not decide whether you are eligible. Curaleaf Clinic clinicians complete the assessment and make any prescribing decision.
How do I start a Curaleaf medical cannabis referral in Manchester?
Use the Manchester Chemist referral form once the link is added to this page. We will route patients through our form first, while Curaleaf Clinic remains responsible for clinical eligibility, consultation, and prescribing decisions.
Can I buy CBD or THC from this page?
No. This page does not sell CBD, THC, cannabis products, or medical cannabis appointments through Manchester Chemist. We only dispense prescription-only medicines when a valid prescription is issued and sent to us.
Who may be suitable for a medical cannabis consultation?
Curaleaf says patients may be suitable for review if they have a diagnosed physical, neurological, or mental health condition and standard treatments have not worked, are not appropriate, or have caused unwanted side effects. A specialist must review each case.
What information does Curaleaf usually need?
Curaleaf may need medical records, details of previous treatments, photographic ID, and a signed treatment agreement. NHS Login can speed up record sharing for patients in England, but this is still subject to Curaleaf review.
Are Curaleaf appointments online?
Curaleaf states that consultations are virtual. If their team considers a consultation appropriate, patients may be invited to speak with a condition specialist by video call.
Does a consultation mean I will get a prescription?
No. Curaleaf says being invited to a consultation does not guarantee a prescription. Their specialist doctor and clinical team decide whether medical cannabis is appropriate after reviewing the patient and their records.
What happens if Curaleaf prescribes treatment?
If Curaleaf issues a valid prescription and sends it to Manchester Chemist, we contact you about payment for the prescription, dispensing, and collection or delivery options.
Is medical cannabis legal in the UK?
Medical cannabis can be legally prescribed in the UK by an appropriate specialist doctor. Recreational cannabis remains illegal, and this page is only about the regulated medical referral pathway.
