London patients have more options for accessing medical cannabis than anywhere else in the UK. Five clinics maintain physical consulting locations in the capital, and every other UK-licensed clinic offers video consultations to London residents. If you have a qualifying condition and have tried at least two conventional treatments without adequate relief, a specialist consultation is a straightforward next step.
Physical Clinic Locations in London
The following clinics operate physical consulting rooms in London where face-to-face appointments are available. However, all five also offer video consultations — and for most patients, a video call is entirely sufficient for both the initial assessment and all follow-up appointments.
- Lyphe Clinic — one of the UK's largest cannabis clinics by patient volume, with a central London consulting location alongside a nationwide video service.
- Curaleaf Clinic — part of a global medical cannabis group; London clinic available alongside online consultations.
- London Cannabis Clinic — based in Harley Street, one of London's most recognised medical addresses, with a focus on specialist in-person assessments.
- Mamedica — operates a London consulting location and is known for its broad range of qualifying conditions and straightforward booking process.
- Zerenia — London-based clinic with a strong focus on chronic pain and mental health conditions.
Online Consultations: Available to All London Patients
For the majority of London patients, an online video consultation is the most practical and fastest route to a medical cannabis prescription. Every licensed UK clinic — including those without a London physical presence — can see London-based patients via video call:
- Releaf — well-regarded for chronic pain and sleep disorder prescribing; fully online.
- Sapphire Medical Foundations — the UK's longest-established medical cannabis clinic, with particular expertise in neurological conditions and epilepsy.
- Alternaleaf — straightforward online-only model with competitive consultation fees.
- The Medical Cannabis Clinics (TMCC) — online service covering a wide range of qualifying conditions.
A physical appointment is not a requirement for any UK medical cannabis prescription. UK law permits specialist prescribing entirely via video consultation, and this is standard practice across the industry.
How to Access Medical Cannabis in London
The process is the same whether you choose a physical or online appointment:
- Check eligibility: Use the free checker on this site to assess whether your condition and treatment history are likely to qualify.
- Choose a clinic: Compare the nine UK-licensed clinics on this site. Consider consultation fees, wait times, and the conditions each clinic has most experience with.
- Book a consultation: Most clinics allow online booking. Initial consultations are typically conducted by video call (30–60 minutes) with a consultant-level specialist.
- Receive your prescription: If clinically appropriate, a prescription is issued following the consultation. A licensed UK pharmacy fulfils it and delivers by post — typically within 2–5 working days anywhere in London.
- Follow-up appointments: Regular video or in-person follow-ups allow the specialist to monitor your response and adjust dosing as needed.
Cost of Medical Cannabis in London
Private medical cannabis prescriptions are not generally available on the NHS outside of specific narrow pathways. London patients accessing private clinics should budget for:
- Initial consultation: £79 to £299 depending on the clinic and whether the appointment is in-person or by video.
- Monthly medication: £100 to £400 per month depending on the product type and dose required.
- Follow-up appointments: £50 to £100 per session, typically every one to three months.
Some clinics offer bundled care plans. Compare total cost structures — including follow-up frequency — when choosing between clinics. There is no significant cost premium for seeing a London physical clinic over an online clinic; medication costs are identical as all dispensing is done by licensed UK pharmacies rather than the clinics themselves.
Which Conditions Qualify?
London specialists — like all UK-licensed prescribers — can prescribe for any condition where they believe it is clinically appropriate and the patient has not responded adequately to conventional treatments. The most commonly prescribed conditions include chronic pain, PTSD, anxiety disorders, multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, sleep disorders, and epilepsy.
See the full qualifying conditions guide and the step-by-step prescription guide for more detail.

Several London-based clinics have significant chronic pain expertise, including Lyphe Clinic, Mamedica, and Zerenia. All offer video consultations as an alternative to attending in person. Compare fees and wait times before booking.
Most clinics can offer an initial consultation within one to three weeks of booking. If the specialist prescribes at the consultation, medication is typically delivered by post to your London address within two to five working days.
NHS prescribing of medical cannabis in London remains very rare in practice. The vast majority of London patients access medical cannabis through private specialist clinics using video or in-person consultations.
London Cannabis Clinic operates from Harley Street and offers in-person specialist assessments. However, the Harley Street location does not confer any regulatory advantage — all UK-licensed cannabis clinics operate under the same legal framework and can prescribe the same range of products.
