Pennsylvania has approved about 100 physicians statewide to participate in the new medical marijuana program, with another 200 in the pipeline.
In order to be approved, physicians must complete four hours of
training on medical cannabis and how it's administered. Once the program
is up and running next year, they can recommend patients to use the
medicine, which will be grown and dispensed from permitted facilities.
Like many medical marijuana programs across the country, doctors do
not prescribe cannabis products, which are still considered Schedule 1
drugs by the Drug Enforcement Administration, a category that includes
other illegal drugs like heroin. Instead, they "certify" patients to use
them.
Based on the Department of Health's list, these are doctors in
central Pennsylvania that have been approved so far with their area of
specialty. Some are cross-listed due to multiple offices.
