I've been looking for months now but I can't seem to find any clinics in the Vancouver area of Washington. I was told that some Portland, OR clinics work for Washington as well, is this true? I'm suffering from MS and pretty severe spasticity and was told by my neurologist that on top of the medication I'm already taking, medical marijuana would help a lot. I'd really like to try it but it's been so difficult finding anything that I don't have to drive up to Tacoma or Seattle for.

Does anyone know a number for information I could call or perhaps even a clinic located in the area? I would really appreciate it!

Another choice is CBR Medical. They're based out of Spokane but have clinics in Vancouver also.
Good luck to you.

I understand there are several in the Portland area. You might try Project Quest, see if the Naturopath is Wa certified. I've been there for hypnosis, but I'm not sure about mmj, but they see AIDS patients and work with end stage patients, so you might qualify. I had to have a phone interview by the therapist before I was allowed an appointment, but I was allowed like courtesy as well. Not so great part of town, but nice environment inside. Something tells me an MS patient would have luck there.

I would go with a clinic owned and operated by a healthcare practitioner "ONLY". The one's suggested are not owned or operated by healthcare practitioners...they are owned and operated by laypersons with no medical license...which means according to our state public policy is an invalid contract...:(

I had the name wrong. It's Quest Center for Integrative Health. It is an established medical facility that focuses on the needs of the whole body, and includes holistic and naturopathic medicine. I do not know if they do recommendations, but I would think they would be open to it.They do work with chronic pain patients, here is the link:

It would appear time this is an Oregon based organization with Oregon licensed healthcare practitioners, not Wa. licensed practitioners. Maybe they do oregon authorizations for wa. patients who visit oregon which would be great.:cool:
