I am writing to express my gratitude and feedback about my recent experience with Cannabisdoctor, in particular with the Lead Clinician Dr Mohan Chitgopeker.

I contacted Dr Mohan two months ago for his help in offering relief to my mother, Dorothy, aged 87 who was in the hospital section of a rest home, suffering from an inflamed gall bladder, moderate Alzheimers and severe anxiety which caused her to cry whenever she saw us, begging to go home and unable to understand that she needed a lot of care at this time. She would become very anxious and shake and we felt unable to help her.

We live out of Auckland and my mother was bedridden so Dr Mohan offered a Virtual Health Video consultation where he went through Mum’s health conditions and medications thoroughly. He then recommended and prescribed Medicinal CBD oil to manage her symptoms.

Mohan assured me that CBD oil could help my mother and with the rest homes agreement we started her on it straight away. After a couple of weeks we started to see that Dorothy was a lot more calm when we came to see her and she would agree after quiet discussion that she needed to stay for a few more days to recover. This made our visits so much easier and we felt that her symptoms were well controlled and she had better quality of life while on the CBD. The staff also noticed the improvement and were eager to see if the oil could be used for other patients.

Because of her health issues, Mum’s health was changing quite quickly. Mohan and I kept in touch regularly over this time as he assessed her needs and changed the dosages. He also assisted me with communicating with the attending nurse practitioner and nurses about when to give the oil.

My mother died peacefully in the presence of my sister and myself 2 weeks ago. She had been on the CBD oil for nearly 2 months. Even as her condition deteriorated, and she required additional pain relief and other drugs we were able to administer the oil until the final stages before she passed away. We felt her anxiety and comfort was much improved, even at the end of her life.

I want to thank Cannabisdoctor and Dr Mohan for the difference they made in my mother’s life before she passed away. I only wish I had consulted them earlier for her.

I truly believe that CBD oil offers a natural solution which would assist many residents of rest homes and should be an option that is readily available to the residents and their family members who want the best for their loved ones.
