Honestly, its only the exhaustion caused by my condition that means I haven't moved elsewhere. I swear I'm done with them. Absolutely crazy.
This week, in stupid things Alternaleaf have done. Given me an Annual Review with a middle class prat of a doctor so clueless that the things he's written in a letter to MY GP are going to get me into trouble with the DWP at some point.
This, apparently, cannot be rectified until a far-off appointment at the end of JUNE. REALLY??? REALLY??? You've made it sound as if I can appear on Strictly, or single handedly renovate Notre Dame. Meanwhile, I am paying quite a lot of money for a decent level of pain relief... and although I am pleased with the results, it hasn't cured my arthritis and I will still feel like I fell down several flights of stairs the morning after I've done some physical activity.

Quick, simple process and cheap compared to other companies. The Nurses and Doctors I have dealt with have been informative and helpful.
Great experience overall so far

There is plenty of stigma surrounding MC, and going through this process is actually something that I was a little apprehensive about at the beginning.
Fear not, for at every step of the journey the Alternaleaf team have been supportive, informative, and helpful with everything.

i was disappointed as my first prescription was strictly by doctor’s choice , i mentioned it to pharmacy also alternaleaf that i am not happy with the outcome of flowers precisely 60 g. but i was told that this particular flower has earthy smell and bitter taste. i am not unfamiliar with good quality cannabis that’s what made me disappointed that no one is bothered to listen to the patient. patient has to agree to both dr and pharmacy, no matter how bad i find the quality of flowers sent to me , i’ll have to be stuck with it

My experience with Alternaleaf has been excellent from start to finish. The consultation process was professional, communication was clear throughout, and any queries I had were dealt with promptly.
After submitting the requested medical records, my prescription was approved and dispensed via Montu quickly and efficiently. The medication arrived securely and exactly as prescribed.
My initial impression of the medication has been very positive. I was prescribed a thoughtful combination of cartridges tailored to different times of day, with products clearly labelled for daytime and nighttime use. The selection of strains feels well considered for a first prescription and has given me the opportunity to find what works best for me.
One of the biggest benefits for me has been the peace of mind that comes with knowing exactly what I am using. Having access to a regulated, professionally prescribed product, with clear labelling and consistent quality, has removed a great deal of uncertainty and has been a genuinely reassuring experience.
As a new patient, I'm very pleased with the service and treatment I've received so far and look forward to continuing my care with Alternaleaf.
Thank you to the teams at Alternaleaf and Montu for their professionalism and support.

"You're better off going elsewhere."
My experience with this company has been nothing short of a nightmare. Since dealing with them, I’ve developed real anxiety.
They treat you like a child and expect you to just accept it. But if you try to make a simple request? They turn mean and completely uncooperative.
Here’s just a sample of what I went through:
· Clinicians not showing up – literally every single appointment I booked.
· Late callbacks – sometimes they'd call my mobile 40 minutes late. Other times, no callback at all, forcing me to rebook another appointment a week or so later.
· Prescription delays – when I finally got a script, it would arrive 3–4 days later (if I was lucky). And then the prescription was for a sold-out medication.
· Useless support agents – they just parrot a script with zero common sense. The pain of waiting, only to get nowhere, is exhausting.
Ahhhh, the anxiety every time I have to deal with these people. Their entire process feels like it was designed by an 8-year-old.
I’m now switching to Medicann. Do yourself a favour and skip the stress.
