Default medical marijuana to help heal concussion

I was reading an article about a teenager with a concussion and how he healed his brain. His mom didn't want him on anti-depressants and narcotic pain killers so she brought him to a state with medical marijuana and he had great results. I've asked two neurologists and they both felt they needed more evidence. Apparently a compound in marijuana called CBD (Cannabidiol) has been shown to have neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties in people with head injuries. Some say it heals the brain.

Has anyone had experience with this? Does anyone know of a doctor who specializes in treating concussions with medical marijuana? I live in Ohio. Am willing to travel.

I am a newbie to this forum so I am not able to post links, **
