Frequently asked questions:
Am I a candidate for medical cannabis?
The majority of our patients suffer from pain, anxiety, and/or sleep issues, and traditional medications and therapies have been ineffective for them. If you are experiencing a condition or symptoms that are impacting your quality of life, whether you are cannabis naive or have been self-medicating for many years, please contact us to learn more about how medical cannabis may help you.
What if my physician won't refer me to Apollo?
You DO NOT need a referral to be seen at Apollo. If your physician is not comfortable with medical cannabis, please contact us – we are here to help and are committed to being as accessible as possible for patients. Apollo is currently accepting patients without referrals.

How long will it take to receive my medication?

Is medical cannabis covered by OHIP or private insurance companies?
Currently medical cannabis is not covered by OHIP, as it does not have a DIN number. Some insurance companies have covered medical cannabis. These are considered on a case-by-case basis. Medical cannabis for Canadian Veterans and RCMP Officers is typically covered by insurance. Medical cannabis is also tax-deductible as a medical expense, so make sure you save your receipts!
How much does medical cannabis cost?
The cost of medical cannabis varies from strain-to-strain, and product-to-product and is determined by the licensed producers who grow the medical cannabis for Canadians. We understand that medical cannabis is usually not covered and can be an added expense for patients. This is why we will work with you one-on-one to find strains and products that match both your health-care, and also your budgetary needs. We can also help you apply for compassionate pricing programs, which can provide a discount on your medical cannabis.
Do I have to get high to use medical cannabis?
Definitely not.
Different strains have different compounds that will have different effects and side effects. The key to reducing euphoria is THC. Apollo will personalize a treatment plan specifically for you to address your medical needs and concerns.
Will it interact with my other medications?
Although medical cannabis interaction rate is relatively low, Apollo’s Healthcare Practitioners will always assess your medical history and medications before prescribing medical cannabis. As patient’s safety is our priority.
What is my proof that I am a medical cannabis patient? Is there a card?
The licensed producers have a registration document that can be emailed to patients as proof. This will be provided upon first registering or upon request depending on the licensed producer.
If it worked for my friend’s similar condition, will it also work for me?
Quite possibly, but not necessary the exact same does or strain. As every strain of cannabis is unique just like every individual is unique. Often patients will need a slightly different dose or strain then another individual with the same condition.
What is the best method to take it? Do I have to smoke it?
No you do not have to smoke it. Apollo Healthcare Practitioners recommend vaporization. There are also many different options to ingest medical cannabis, which depending on your medical condition may be beneficial.
Can I bring my medication with me between provinces? What about travel outside of Canada?
As cannabis is legal across Canada, you are allowed to possess 30x your daily prescription limit or up to a maximum of 150 grams, whichever is less. You are not allowed to bring any cannabis or medical cannabis-related products with you outside of Canada.
