Cannabis Stock News: Emblem (TSX VENTURE: $EMC) Sees Significant Rise in Patient Acquisition
PARIS, ONTARIO - March 20, 2017 (Investorideas.com Newswire) NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES. Emblem Corp. (TSX VENTURE:EMC) ("Emblem" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has successfully ramped up its patient acquisition program resulting in a total of 2,091 active and pending patients (net of expired and disabled registrations) having registered since the opening of its patient fulfillment website in late November, 2016. Patient acquisition has been progressively accelerating with 49 patients registered in November, 157 in December, 437 in January, 691 in February and 553 in March to date with a further 246 registrations pending verification.
"We are extremely pleased with the progress made since the launch of our website to attract and register patients at such an accelerated rate," noted Gordon Fox, CEO of Emblem Corp. "We believe that our patient growth is a favorable reflection on the quality of our cannabis products, our customer service and our physician and patient communication strategies."
Emblem is also pleased to report that GrowWise Health, Emblem's cannabis healthcare vertical, is continuing to expand its clinic network. "GrowWise clinics and cannabis education centres promise to become an important source of patients for Emblem," says Fox.
With physicians becoming more comfortable referring patients and embracing cannabis as an alternative treatment, GrowWise is quickly expanding its presence across Canada. Thus far in 2017, four new GrowWise locations have opened their doors to patients across Ontario
