Alongside seeing patients at Sapphire Medical Clinics, Dr James Rucker is a Clinician Scientist (senior clinical lecturer level) at The Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at King’s College London.

Sapphire Medical Clinics lead the way in the UK as the first UK medical cannabis clinic registered by the CQC. You can find out more about the team of consultants at Sapphire here https://www.sapphireclinics.com/about/

We provide doctors and patients with an expert opinion on their medical condition and help determine whether medical cannabis treatments could be a viable option. Referred patients are seen by a consultant who specialises in their condition, as well as in prescribing medicinal cannabis. Our medical cannabis clinic is here for clinicians who’ve yet to find an effective solution to challenging medical conditions, and for patients who’ve been referred to us to establish the next stage of treatment.
