058 Medical Cannabis Patient Advocacy with Berkeley Patients Group's Etienne Fontan

Summary: Berkeley Patients Group is the nation’s longest running dispensary and a patient advocacy resource for cannabis access and education. “We originally started as wanting to provide medical cannabis for patients to not have to wait for government oversight or relief,” Etienne Fontan, principal of Berkeley Patients Group, says, “We saw and found from our own use, the efficacious use of cannabis was available to us. So therefore, we felt it our duty to help others get it and have access to it.”
