CannaWay Clinic specializes in holistic treatment plans for chronic pain and symptom management needs, now available to the Oakville community.

Oakville, ON –  CannaWay Clinic, located in the Trafalgar Professional Centre is helping patients who are suffering from chronic pain or illness with therapeutic cannabis treatment plans. Treatment plans are individualized to minimize pain and other symptoms, reduce the use of other drugs with higher risk profiles, and generally improve quality of life. Patients can book appointments easily through the CannaWay Clinic website.

The new clinic is physician-lead by Dr. Teosar Bhesania, Cardiologist, and Dr. Stephen Glazer. Glazer is Board Certified in Internal Medicine, Critical Care Medicine and Obesity Medicine as well as a specialist in sleep disorders.

“As licenced cannabis producers continue to develop new and innovative products for medicinal use, it is important that patients work with a specialist, along with their family physician, to develop a treatment plan that’s right for them,” stated Glazer, lead physician, CannaWay Clinic. “We help navigate the different medicines and intake methods that are available with each of our patients.”

CannaWay Clinic offers treatment plans to help manage symptoms related to:

  • Sleep disorders
  • Chronic pain
  • Cancer
  • Gastrointestinal issues
  • Anxiety or depression
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Migraine headaches
  • Epilepsy
  • Spinal injuries
  • PTSD

“As a doctor you see patients missing out on life’s simple pleasures – eating a meal with friends, getting a good night’s sleep or just simple daily activities. People really struggle with this when diagnosed with chronic illness. CannaWay exists to make these things possible again for our patients,” explained Glazer.

While it is encouraged that patients obtain a referral through their family physician, there is no referral necessary to book an appointment online. Walk-ins are not permitted at this time.
