WHAT IS CBD?
Cannabidiol or CBD is a chemical compound that found in both the marijuana plant and also the hemp plant. CBD may be extracted from either, yet with the Hemp plant, there is minimal THC found naturally. THC is what creates the “high” feeling when associated with marijuana use. CBD is becoming more understood as having potential benefits spanning multiple medical conditions afflicting us throughout our lives.
CBD binds receptors in what is called the endocannabinoid system (ECS). These receptors are highly concentrated in our nervous system, especially the brain, yet also found in the digestive tract, the skin, and other major organ systems.
Our Story
Spanning 15 years in private practice, Dr. J. Julian Grove M.D. and Dr. Peter Kubitz D.O. have experienced first-hand the difficulties and complex dilemmas in treating patients suffering from chronic pain. From a medical management perspective, the treatment of pain is at a crossroads.
In the last two decades, we have seen the intersection of various forms of pain medications and the prominent and real consequences of their use. The side effects, end-organ damage, and the potential for addiction and abuse are global concerns. As providers treating patients with complex pain daily, we offer patients a myriad of different treatments including physical therapy, interventional therapies (nerve blocks, spinal cord stimulation), and complementary treatments (chiropractic, naturopathic medicine, massage, acupuncture, psychological support). Unfortunately, many times, this is not enough.
Managing various pain syndromes with medications that do not exacerbate severe medical conditions and behavioral risk factors is an ongoing challenge for medical professionals. This has been a driving force in the development of a product line of cannabidiol products, aiding in the management of specific pain syndromes and improve a sense of well-being.
We have partnered with Mr. Jeff Schaeffer and Mr. Aubrey Bradley to create The Physician’s Choice CBD, a company dedicated to research, development, and utilization of only the highest quality of cannabidiol (CBD) combined with well-studied and effective supplements specific to various conditions. Mr. Schaeffer and Mr. Bradley each bring over a decade of experience in the cannabis industry. The experience is extensive and comprehensive including technological innovation in the cultivation of the highest quality cannabis plants, cannabis product development, as well as the development and operation of one of Arizona’s most successful medical marijuana dispensaries.
The integration of extensive physician clinical experience combined with exhaustive expertise in the cannabis industry has led to the creation of The Physician’s Choice CBD – Created By Physicians, Created For You.
