aboutus

Founded in 2021, CGS Physician Services, LLC began with a vision of being a catalyst for positive change in the world of cannabis. We believe that by educating our patients about the benefits of medicinal cannabis, we can not only promote its responsible use but also continue to work toward decreasing the stigma associated with cannabis.

Thus far, the results have been remarkable. Patients are collectively reporting that cannabis has greatly improved their quality of life and has been "a game changer".

Our goal at CGS Physician Services, LLC would be to see these types of results and acceptances across the many communities of Florida and Pennsylvania (for a start).

Our Chief Medical Officer is a triple-board certified osteopathic physician who is seasoned, passionate and an expert in the field of hospice and palliative care. This background lays an incredible foundation from which we hope to shape the future of the cannabis industry by offering transformative consulting services that would inspire and support generations of cannabis users and businesses alike.

Each day we strive to set the standard for excellence and foster communities of forward-thinking advocates for the responsible use of medicinal cannabis,

one person at a time.

PODCAST interview

by Stephen Matini of Alygn

This episode explores the best way to care for ourselves and those we love near the final days of life because of illness or age.

Dr. Shaw points out that not knowing how to deal with mortality hinders our ability to be compassionate and caring towards others and ourselves. Developing a deeper understanding and awareness of this natural process has the healing power to turn grief into growth: we become advocates for our loved ones in their most glorious moment to provide relief and peace.
