Doctor to lose medical marijuana clinics in Illinois
(AP) — A doctor involved in an ongoing battle with the state over his certification of patients in Illinois' medical marijuana program is planning to close his clinics in Marion and Orland Park.
Clinics will be held twice a year at both locations to maintain compliance with the state's rules and regulations for the participants of the program that were certified for the Illinois medical marijuana pilot program.
In 2015, the state filed complaints alleging Schneider inappropriately certified patients for the state's medical marijuana pilot program, which began in late 2014, and inappropriately prescribed opioid pain medications.
