New York City Medical Marijuana Card Doctors

With New York medical marijuana dispensaries now open, qualified New York City residents now have access to medical marijuana. In order to purchase medical marijuana at state-licensed dispensaries, patients must be seen by a doctor approved by the New York Department of Health. The Department of Health governs the entire New York marijuana program. All of our doctors at Green Health Docs are approved by the state to certify patients for the New York medical marijuana program.

At Green Health Docs, we like to make things simple for you. Getting a New York medical marijuana card is a straightforward process, to qualify you must:

(1) Be a resident of the state of New York. There is no age restriction. Patients under the age of 18 will require a parent or guardian to register as their caregiver.

(2) Be diagnosed with one of the state-approved qualifying medical conditions. You will need to have at least one form of medical proof of your diagnosis such as a prescription bottle, office visit summary, or a letter from your doctor.

(3) Be evaluated by a New York state-approved medical marijuana doctor. Each doctor at Green Health Docs is registered with the state and can certify you for a medical marijuana card. Once approved, we'll issue your physician written certification the same day.

(4) Register with the New York Department of Health. We are happy to help our patients register with the state, if you're having trouble just give us a call or text at 240-356-1000 for assistance.

Once you are certified by a doctor and approved by the state, you will receive your electronic ID card that will allow you to start legally purchasing medical marijuana from any dispensary in the state of New York.
