He delved deeply into the science of Cannabis safety and treatment. After years of research and learning, Dr. Tishler brings his knowledge, reason, and caring to patients at Inhale Medical Consulting, and through his advocacy work at the local and national levels.

The mission at inhaleMD is to provide exceptional evidence-based compassionate care for patients with severe illness using Cannabis medicine to improve quality of life. Pain is clearly patient's number one diagnosis, as it is for all practices across the country. Depression, anxiety, and insomnia are also seen quite frequently. Usually these symptoms are associated with illnesses like cancer, Multiple Sclerosis, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, or orthopedic illness. Cannabis is a much safer alternative to many conventional medications for pain control. Furthermore, using Cannabis for pain often leads to less need for opiate medication, which is known to be quite dangerous. Cannabis is also very effective for depression, anxiety, and insomnia that often accompany severe illness.

Patient visits to InhaleMD are extensive so that each patient gets a comprehensive evaluation, but most importantly, a thorough education on how to use Cannabis best and most appropriately for their illness. Inhale MD strives to make each patient feel heard, understood, and supported. To set up an appointment please contact Andrea at the InhaleMD office by phone 617- 477-8886 or by email [email protected]. While InhaleMD cannot write prescriptions outside of Massachusetts (MA), we do provide online appointments to provide education and support that many patients are unable to find in their locations.

Currently some states are just figuring out medical Cannabis rules.
