Medical Cannabis in Sion
Cannabis prescription for Sion and Valais, video consultation, medication delivered throughout the canton.
Cannabis therapy for Sion
With around 35,000 inhabitants, Sion (German: Sitten) is the capital of the Canton of Valais and the economic centre of the central Valais. With the Hôpital du Valais, the canton has a central hospital structure, but medical cannabis is barely available in Valais pharmacies.
Patients in Sion, Sierre, Martigny or Visp previously often had to commute to Lausanne or further. evidena.care makes cannabis therapy accessible in Valais too, regardless of location.
The consultation takes place by video. If a prescription is issued, it goes to a Swiss partner pharmacy, and the medication is delivered by post to Sion or any other home address in Valais. The Upper Valais is also reliably covered.

Partner pharmacies for Sion
Why evidena.care for Sion?
In Valais we work without a local partner pharmacy; supply runs by shipping from German-speaking Switzerland. Delivery from the Stauffacher pharmacy in Zurich or other partners usually reaches Sion within two working days.
The consultation with evidena.care is primarily held in German. For the central and lower Valais, French is often more natural; on request we arrange a French-speaking doctor. In the Upper Valais, German is usually the first language.
A pharmacy in Valais can also redeem your cannabis prescription directly, provided it orders the medication. Speak to your regular pharmacy or ask evidena.care for a recommendation in the canton.
