CannaGather holds the largest monthly cannabis industry community events!


Headed into the final days of Autism Awareness Month, CannaGather Digital's April 30th show, we had Dr. Rachel Knox, MD, M.B.A., Mieko Hester-Perez, and Dr. Sandra Carrillo, MD join us for an in-depth conversation on the complicated relationship between medical cannabis and autism.


Speakers

Mieko Hester-Perez

 International Healthcare & Autism Advocate

-Healthcare Liaison, CannaSafe Analytics

-CA Corporate & Attorney Services Inc. Board Member

-California Aquatic Therapy & Wellness Center Board Member

-Chalkin’ Social Honorary Board Member

-The Puerto Rican Society of Cannabis Science and Medicine Board Member

-NYCIA New York Cannabis Industry Association Board Member

In 2009, Mieko Hester-Perez decided to go public with her son's success with medical cannabis and since that day in 2009, she has become a source of inspiration and information for families looking to explore alternative and holistic treatment options within the autism spectrum. 

 

The combination of 20 years of legal experience and over 15 years of special education knowledge, make Mieko a modern day “warrior mom” within the industry. She has also received special recognition from the United States Congress for her many hours of community service and dedication. Mrs. Perez also received the Lifetime Advocate Award at the Chalice Festival for her efforts within the cannabis industry. 

 

After her son Joey received acknowledgment of his educational progress from the 44th United States President Barrack Obama, he was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy in late 2011 second to his autism and passed away April 2018 at the age of 19 years old. 

 

Deep within her soul Mieko feels blessed to have Joey as her son and pledges to “leave no family behind”. 

 

Mrs. Perez currently consults internationally with healthcare providers in prominent autism centers, palliative care & cancer institutions as a healthcare ambassador for consumers who have exhausted all other treatment options. Mieko diligently leads the pack with tremendous knowledge regarding consumer safety and compliance protection. She possesses personal knowledge and experience navigating through treatment options resulting in positive outcomes for consumers throughout the world. 

 

Her most notable consumer protocol plans, and product expertise have become a solid reliable resource that provides perspectives on consumer buyer trends, dispensary guidance and medical team input for the last 11 years.

Dr. Rachel Knox, MD, M.B.A.

Endocannabinologist & Certified Cannabinoid Medicine Specialist at Doctors Knox, Inc.; Chair Oregon Cannabis Commission

Dr. Rachel Knox is a certified Cannabinoid Medicine specialist who received her medical and business degrees from Tufts University after completing her undergraduate studies at Duke. She trained in Family and Integrative Medicine before pursuing additional study in the areas of Functional Medicine, Cannabinoid Medicine, and Endocannabinology - the study of the function, dysfunction and modulation of the most important physiologic system in the human body, the endocannabinoid system.


She is passionate about educating her professional peers and broader public about the safety and effectiveness of Cannabinoid Medicine, the evidence-based clinical integration of Endocannabinology with Cannabinology, the study of the pharmacology of cannabinoids and other cannabimimetic biologics. She further believes that the ECS validates a biopsychosociospiritual model of medicine, and that it provides the biologic evidence for the ancient medical practices that model the same.


As a Cannabinoid Medicine specialist and endocannabinologistwho has counseled several thousand patients in cannabis therapeutics, she has seen first-hand how significant a role cannabis and cannabimimetic modalities play in helping patients reclaim their health and overall sense of wellness, establishing renewed ownership over their lives. She has witnessed her patients safely use cannabis as adjunctive therapy to their conventional treatment plans, to wean from prescription drugs, find relief from the side effects of toxic therapies, or avoid conventional pharmaceuticals altogether.


Dr. Rachel believes that industry-wide engagement is necessary to maintain the highest standards of care and oversight, from seed to use, in the service of providing education and compassionate, wholly informed care to patients everywhere. This passion extends into further educating communities of color in the role cannabis can play in addressing the Minority Health Disparity Gap, and the broader way in which cannabis can impact the physical, spiritual, social, economic and political wellness of these communities.


Dr. Knox is a co-founder of the American Cannabinoid Clinics and ADVENT Academy, medical committee chairperson for the Minority Cannabis Business Association, member of the Cannabis Policy Oversight Team for Portland, OR, board member of NuLeaf Project in Portland, OR, spokesperson for Doctors for Cannabis Regulation, certified member of the American Academy of Cannabinoid Medicine, and Chair for the Oregon Cannabis Commission.
