Medical marijuana is now legal in Florida and we are able to prescribe this for several different conditions.

In Florida, the approved conditions are

  1. Cancer
  2. Epilepsy
  3. Glaucoma
  4. HIV
  5. AIDS
  6. PTSD
  7. ALS
  8. Crohn’s Disease
  9. Multiple Sclerosis
  10. Medical condition of the same kind or class as or comparable to those above
  11. A terminal condition  diagnosed by a physician other than the qualified physician issuing the physician certification
  12. Chronic non malignant pain caused by a qualifying medical condition or that originates from a qualifying medical condition and persists beyond the usual course of that qualifying medical condition

We accept insurance to help you get established as a patient and review what condition you have and if you qualify.  We will often discuss all alternatives and then if you qualify, we enter your information into the state database and help you get certified and get your medical marijuana card.
