The Hemp Doctor survey says 90.8% of customers report positive effects

The Hemp Doctor says a mid-2026 survey of 10,214 retail customers found most respondents reported positive cognitive, mental, sleep or tension-related effects. The company pairs those results with strong third-party review scores, but says the findings are self-reported and not clinical data.

Why it matters: - The Hemp Doctor is using a large customer survey to answer a basic consumer question: whether its hemp products are delivering noticeable results. - The findings may help the brand support trust in a category where product claims often outpace proof. - The survey also shows where some customers still struggle, with 8.7% saying they have not found the right product or dose yet.

What happened: - The Hemp Doctor published results from a mid-2026 survey of 10,214 retail customers. - 90.8% of respondents reported at least one positive cognitive or mental experience. - 86.7% of sleep-related responses described a positive effect. - The full report, 100 Retail Customer Data Points, is available on the company’s website.

The details: - Sleep support was the most common reason for purchase, named by 61.4% of respondents. - 57.9% said they fell asleep faster after using hemp products. - Tension management was the next most common use case, cited by 61.3% of respondents. - Among those customers, 71.6% reported relief within an hour. - 75.1% said they found their preferred product and dose through trial and error rather than company guidance. - Product quality and consistency was the top reason customers chose The Hemp Doctor, at 52.1%, ahead of price. - 8.7% of respondents, or roughly 889 people, said they had not yet found the right product or dose. - The survey reflects only participating The Hemp Doctor customers, not hemp consumers generally. - All answers were self-reported and are not clinical findings or medical claims. - The company says all products are hemp-derived and remain under 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight under the 2018 Farm Bill. - Lab results are published by SKU and batch. - Products are intended for adults 21 and older.

Between the lines: - The survey gives The Hemp Doctor a way to reinforce product credibility with customer data instead of broad marketing claims. - The results are still limited by self-selection, since respondents were the company’s own customers who chose to participate. - Third-party review scores point in the same direction: the company reports a 4.5 out of 5 on Trustpilot across 3,748 reviews, 4.8 out of 5 from 4,903 verified on-site reviews, and a 4.5 overall rating on Leafly with a 4.8 on product quality. - Reviews on those platforms commonly mention tension relief, better sleep and a smoother experience with combined THC and CBD products. - Robert Shade, founder of The Hemp Doctor, said the company wanted to “show the numbers” rather than simply claim the products work.

What's next: - The Hemp Doctor says it is releasing the survey with its methodology and limitations. - The company is likely to keep leaning on customer data and third-party ratings as it markets hemp-derived products. - The Hemp Doctor also says its products are supported by independent third-party lab testing and available certificates of analysis.

The bottom line: - The Hemp Doctor’s customer data suggests many buyers report benefits, but the results are self-reported and limited to the brand’s own customer base.
