Evaluating & Certifying Qualified Patients for the Connecticut Medical Marijuana Registry
Quality Care You Can Trust
Our compassionate certification center provides comprehensive medical marijuana evaluations and certifies qualifying patients. Patients will be seen by a state-approved medical practitioner who is registered with the Connecticut Medical Marijuana Program.
The medical provider will conduct an assessment to ascertain whether or not medical cannabis treatment may be appropriate for a patient suffering from an approved medical condition. In addition, the medical provider will discuss the benefits and risks involved with the use of medical marijuana.
Approved patients will be certified with the Connecticut Medical Marijuana Registry. Once certified on the registry, the patient may begin the online registration process necessary to obtain a Medical Marijuana Certificate, which allows the patient to purchase medical marijuana from a licensed Connecticut dispensing facility.
