Judgment-Free Cannabis Doctor Evaluations

Icon

It is our mission to advocate for medical cannabis patients and to assist prospective applicants in navigating the registration process in their respective states. We offer our services to residents of multiple states applying for medical marijuana programs, including Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania has authorized the use of telemedicine to certify patients for medical marijuana cards. At the Sanctuary, our staff members are available to schedule a virtual appointment for you with one of our doctors. You do not need to have a prior doctor's evaluation to meet with our licensed physicians.

During your appointment, your doctor will evaluate your condition and determine if you meet the state’s requirements for medical marijuana use. If your physician believes you would benefit from marijuana use, they will submit a certificate to the Pennsylvania DOH as soon as possible. Once your information is in the system, you can continue the application process on the DOH website.

Simply call us at (717) 826-0196 to arrange a virtual meeting with a physician.

    Visit a dispensary in Pennsylvania to obtain medical marijuana.

    Once your medical marijuana card arrives in the mail you may visit any dispensary in Pennsylvania to purchase medical marijuana. Remember, that although you can legally purchase medical marijuana, you are not allowed to go to any grower. You must go to a marijuana dispensary that has been approved by the state. Additionally, you are only allowed to obtain a 30 day supply at any given time.
    An initial visit with a dispensary pharmacist is highly recommend. A Dispensary pharmacist has been trained and certified on the best forms of medical marijuana for your specific needs. He or she will be able to speak to you about the different types of marijuana that may benefit you the most based on your diagnosis.

About Medical Marijuana

PA Medical Marijuana Card

Icon

On April 17, 2016 the Pennsylvania General assembly passed the Medical Marijuana Act (Act). This legalized the sale, possession and use of medical cannabis. To obtain a medical marijuana card and obtain medical cannabis from dispensaries the client must be a Pennsylvania resident. Unfortunately, if you legally reside in another another state, you will need to abide by the laws that are specific to that state. Also, the doctor that you see must be approved by the state to provide you with the certification. In turn, a PDH-approved doctor must verify the their patient’s medical condition in order to acquire certification.
