Why one company does all of this

Health is built, not just prescribed.

Where people live, how they eat, move and sleep, and whether a doctor is close by decide most of how long and how well they live. A clinic alone can't change that, and neither can a building alone.

So we do both. Our builders, physicians and operators sit at the same table, which lets us design a building around the care inside it and a practice around the neighborhood it serves.

Physicians run the medicine

Kanaka handles the business side: space, staff, systems and growth. Clinical decisions stay with the clinicians.

Built by the same team

We design and build our clinics ourselves, so the space works the way the care does.

Two states, one standard

Licensed in New York and Florida, with the same protocols and measures at every site.

Medical cannabis

Cannabis, treated as medicine

Medical cannabis needs the same seriousness as any other therapy. Green Express Meds brings a physician's discipline to New York's medical cannabis market.
