“We’re pleased about the medical marijuana debate discussion results at the Plant Medicine Expo & Healthcare Provider Conference as it provided an intelligent and sophisticated discussion that was interesting and informative for physicians, nurses, caretakers, patients and citizens in attendance. For those who missed the live broadcast, they will be able to view clips that will run soon on the PME/HPC website,” states Seth Ginsberg, Co-founder of TGI Healthworks which organized Plant Medicine Expo & Healthcare Provider Conference.

The Plant Medicine Expo & Healthcare Provider Conference targets the uninitiated and under-informed patients and physicians who may be aware of medical marijuana as a potential treatment option, but who otherwise lack the understanding needed to make an educated determination on its appropriateness for their condition.
