As most of us know, medical marijuana is one of the fastest growing medical sub-specialties in the U.S. Historically, medical marijuana conferences have catered to advocates for the legalization of recreational marijuana or those who are already well informed on medical marijuana. With medical marijuana now legal in 14 states, there is a demand for a more informative, comprehensive and objective forum for providers, patients and physicians. TGI Healthworks, a national leader in the formation and production of medical and pharmaceutical conferences, recently hosted the first Plant Medicine Expo & Healthcare Provider Conference in Denver Colorado.
Co-founder and President of TGI Healthworks, Seth Ginsberg joins the show with some news from the recent expo as well as new arguments for medical marijuana.
