In 2007, Allan I. Frankel, MD, established GreenBridge Medical in Santa Monica, California, with the mission of treating patients living with chronic pain or illness through a combination of traditional treatments and medical cannabis. Dr. Frankel’s expertise in internal medicine, as well as his pioneering work on the applications of clinical cannabis, form the foundation of the GreenBridge Medical treatment philosophy. In 2017, Mark Kurzman, MD, joined the practice as a general practitioner. GreenBridge Medical is committed to explaining and demystifying the treatment process to new patients, whether they have been referred by their primary care physician or they’ve found the practice on their own. GreenBridge Medical uses a unique method of dosed cannabis — a treatment involving a regimen of regular doses of cannabis, usually delivered through a capsule or spray, designed by a physician to treat each man or woman’s individual needs. Because over 80% of new patients have never used cannabis, GreenBridge Medical offers educational consultations. These consultations are a compassionate, no-stress environment for Dr. Kurzman, Dr. Frankel, and their helpful staff to clearly understand a patient’s needs and concerns. Consultations are available for your convenience by phone, video chat, or in person, and don’t worry: If you forget to ask that one last question, the staff is available via online messaging for any follow-up care you may need.
