Canabo Medical Inc. (TSX VENTURE: CMM) (OTCQB: CAMDF) (“Canabo” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has opened its 15th clinic in London, Ontario. The London clinic is located at 130 Thompson Road.

Canabo is also pleased to announce that Dr. Neil Smith, Executive Chairman will be presenting results from the Company’s Observational Study at the Canadian Consortium for the Investigation of Cannabinoids (CCIC) “Cannabinoids in Clinical Practice” event April 6-7, 2017 in Toronto. The research to be presented will focus on observations of benzodiazepine use among Canabo patients. The Company currently tracks over 1,500 patients who started medical cannabinoids while on benzodiazepines.

Dr. Smith stated, “We consider the release of this first research report a milestone not just for Canabo but for the medical cannabis industry as a whole.
