A fascinating chat this week with Dr Waseem Alzaher, the founder of Cannabis Clinic - the country's largest prescriber of medicinal cannabis.
The 36-year-old moved to New Zealand from Iraq when he was seven.

We discuss the challenges he has faced along the way, and the stigma that still exists within the healthcare industry and society.
