About Allentown Wellness Center

I am a Board Certified Cardiac Surgeon and retired a number of years ago due to my own disability. I became a Cardiac Surgeon because it allowed me the greatest opportunity to give the most of myself in helping patients with Cardiac Disease. I have been doing Medical Cannabis in Pennsylvania for over 4 years since the law was passed in 2016. It has been one of the most important decisions I have made to date. Surgeons become Surgeons because they wish to fix problems and use the scapel as the means and tool to accomplish treatment. Since I retired as a Cardiac Surgeon, I had lost that ability. In the time that I have practiced as a Medical Cannabis Physician and have born witness to the myriad disease states for which Cannabis can impact and improve the lives of patients, I have been given the opportunity again to help patients in the same way I did as a practicing Surgeon in the past. Cannabis is the scapel which allows treatment for the qualifying conditions listed in the state guidelines. It is a powerful drug because it treats so many different conditions for which modern medical therapies often fail and allows patients the ability to incorporate Cannabis into their daily lives to improve and positively impact on them.
