About Lyphe Clinic

Lyphe Clinic, previously known as The Medical Cannabis Clinics, is one of the longer-established players in the UK medical cannabis space. They focus on providing detailed, comprehensive care for patients with complex or hard-to-treat conditions. Their consultation process is thorough, and they have experience managing patients with multiple concurrent conditions. They offer both flower and oil prescriptions with a reasonable formulary. Lyphe's pricing is mid-range — initial consultations from £50–£150, follow-ups from £50–£75. They do not have an access scheme but their standard pricing is competitive. The main complaints are slower access times (5-14 days for initial appointments) and mixed reviews on communication. Some patients report that follow-up responses can be slow, and the patient portal could be more user-friendly.

Lyphe Clinic Prices vs Other UK Clinics

How does Lyphe Clinic compare on cost? Below are the headline initial consultation and monthly medication figures for Lyphe Clinic against the most popular budget, mid-range, and premium UK clinics. Consultation fees vary widely (from £0 to £299), but monthly medication costs are broadly consistent across clinics at around £80–£300 depending on your prescription.

Dispensed£45£29£80–£200

It's important to compare like-for-like: a cheaper initial consultation (Alternaleaf from £49–£99, Wellford Clinics from £5) is a strong draw, but the ongoing costs that matter most are follow-up appointments and your monthly prescription — which land in a similar £80–£300 range across most UK clinics regardless of the entry fee.
