We heard Eloise speak about cannabis and seniors at CannMed2019 - a huge, very serious medical cannabis conference where we also met Dr. Raphael Mechoulam, the Godfather of Modern Cannabis Research. Every one who is anyone in the medical cannabis space was there!

ELOISE THEISEN, is a board-certified Adult-Geriatric Nurse Practitioner who has cultivated a wealth of knowledge and data for using cannabis to treat a broad range of conditions and diseases, especially those that commonly affect seniors. Eloise is a co-founder and Chief Visionary Officer of Radicle Health, developing ongoing cannabis education for healthcare professionals and the community as well as patient care and industry training. An more recently Eloise has launched Leaf411, The first FREE cannabis nurse hotline. 

Prior to Radicle Health, Eloise also founded Green Health Consultants, a medical cannabis clinic that helped patients use cannabis to help treat chronic and age-related illness and was one of the first healthcare practitioners to bring a clinical dosing regimen to the cannabis space. She’s treated more than 5,500 patients using cannabis. Eloise previously served on the board of the American Cannabis Nurses Association and is now the President. She helped in the development of A.C.N.A.’s first online core curriculum, providing over eight hours of educational content as well as continuing education credits for nurses. Her work has been featured in Newsweek and the SF Chronicle, among others.

There are very few healthcare practitioners in the US with a comparable level of cannabis expertise and experience.

We appreciate that they’re always sharing their knowledge at medical symposia, events and now Zoom meetings.
