History

 
Dr. Hanya Barth started her career as a family practice physician in Mendocino, CA. She gained much of her knowledge as a doctor and a specialist in alternative medicine as the community doctor there for over 10 years. After moving to the Bay Area Dr. Barth worked in Methadone clinics in the East Bay until a serious illness prohibited her from continuing to work. After she healed herself, largely through alternative methods and self-determination, she decided to dedicate her career to alternative medicine and opened Compassionate Health Options in 2004.  The organization has grown gradually and organically as a result of the growing demand for Dr. Barth and her services. 
 
Compassionate Health Options opened on Howard Street in San Francisco in 2004 providing integrative, holistic medical care and counseling as part of the Proposition 215 medical marijuana evaluation process. We now have 11 medical cannabis clinics throughout Northern California due to the support of our qualified patients and the medical cannabis community. We are soon to open our newest medical marijauna evaluation center in Walnut Creek, Contra Costa County. 
 
We strive to educate and advise patients on the theraputic benefits of medial cannaibs as well as a holistic and balanced approach to life. Our goal is to support patients in their decisions about nutrituion, weight, lifestyle cnages, relationship counseling, personal health management, alternative health treatments and general well-being. Our clinics offer a friendly environment where patients can receive the care and information they seek in comfort.
 
We love what we do!
