New York’s Premier Medical Marijuana Card Center

RISK FREE

If our doctor doesn’t certify you, we don’t charge you. The doctor is a gatekeeper for the New York State Medical Marijuana program, and we have never had a known case where a patient has not received a card after our doctor qualified them.

FAIR PRICING

We always offer discounts to Seniors, Veterans, people with Fixed Income, Disability, or Food Stamps. We know that times are tough and do our best to keep our process efficient and our pricing rock bottom. We will also match any competitor’s advertised price. Aside from the cost of the visit and the state application fee, there are no hidden prices or fees. So just imagine walking into our discreet medical office, visiting with our kind and knowledgeable doctor, resting assured that you will either be qualified to receive your card, or you will not be charged a penny!

$98 RENEWALS

If you have a card, or are recently expired, and have medical records to prove your condition aside from you certification visits, we will honor our return patient discount and offer you a special deal on your certification. (This obviously does not include the NY State application fee.)

Referral Program

Every patient you refer to us, who completes their certification, will get you a $20 discount off your next re-certification with us. If you refer FIVE people, then your next visit is ON US!

 

Proven Safe

Medical marijuana is one of the safest medications available. Period. There has not been a single death recorded from an overdose of cannabis. If our doctor does not believe it is a good idea for you medically, they will tell you. Most of the few significant negative events with cannabis involve untreated or latent schizophrenia. Chronic use of cannabis causes no organ damage, and it has been shown that, in adults, the cognitive effects sometimes associated with chronic cannabis use dissipate when cannabis intake is discontinued. This is in contrast to even acetaminophen, which causes thousands of hospitalizations and kills hundreds of Americans every year. (Statistics)

So just imagine walking into our discreet medical office, visiting with our kind and knowledgeable doctor, resting assured that you will either be qualified to receive your card, or you will not be charged a penny. And with your card you will be able to reduce your use of addictive and harmful medications and get relief.

WE FOLLOW THE RULES

Other centers do not require proof of a medical condition, do not try to get medical records, and have patients see two doctors – one after the other, which is against the Medical Board’s requirements. This endangers patients, and doctors have lost their licenses. We follow the rules and protect you in every way we can.

EFFICIENT VISITS AND FREE UPLOADS

We have a simple, streamlined process that gets you in and out in 30 minutes. We submit ALL paperwork to the state for you, free of charge. After the visit, all you have to do is wait for the card from the Department of Health Services. We keep you informed at all times and guarantee the certification in a timely manner.
