If you're considering medical cannabis as a treatment option, one of the most common questions is: "Where do I actually have to go to get a prescription?" The good news? Thanks to modern healthcare and the rise of online clinics like Big Narstie Medical, the process is more convenient than ever — and in many cases, you don’t even need to leave your house.
You Don’t Have to Go to Your GP
Let’s clear up a common myth: your NHS GP can’t usually prescribe medical cannabis — and even if they support the idea, most are not authorised to make the prescription themselves.
While medical cannabis is legal in the UK, access through the NHS is still very limited. That's why most patients turn to specialist private clinics, like Big Narstie Medical, that are licensed to prescribe cannabis-based medicines legally and safely.
You Can Do It All Online
With Big Narstie Medical, the entire process is online. That means no hospital waiting rooms, no awkward conversations with your GP, and no unnecessary travel.
Here’s how it works:
Step 1: Start with an Online Assessment
Head to bignarstiemedical.com and fill in a short medical questionnaire. This helps our clinical team understand your condition and see if medical cannabis could be suitable.
Step 2: Book a Video Consultation
If you're eligible, you’ll be invited to book a video consultation with one of our GMC-registered doctors. This takes place via secure video call, usually within just a few days. You can speak to your doctor from your own home, using your phone, tablet, or computer.
Step 3: Receive Your Prescription
If you're approved for treatment, your prescription will be written by the doctor and sent directly to our trusted pharmacy partner. They’ll prepare your medication and deliver it to your door in discreet packaging.
No in-person visits. No stress. Just safe, secure access to the treatment you need.
Why Choose a Specialist Clinic?
Medical cannabis is a complex treatment — there are different strains, cannabinoid ratios (like THC and CBD), and formats (such as oils or flower). That’s why it’s so important to speak to a doctor who understands this space.
At Big Narstie Medical, our clinicians are trained in cannabis-based medicine and follow strict UK regulations. You’ll receive personalised care and ongoing support tailored to your specific health needs.

-
100% legal
