This was an amazing and effortless experience.Have your paperwork in order before you book your appointment & be early or on time for your appointment.After that it's a piece of cake.BTW...heads upMost appointments are at this location NOT @ G2B ...pay attention to you txt messages.Great Job Everyone @ DocMJ
My experience was great . Dr Schow and the ladies there were awesome. I would definitely go see them if you are ever interested in obtaining your MML. I will be returning when my next appointment is required. Thank you to Dr . Schow and her excellent team
Awesome experience from start to finish! All the staff was extremely kind and helpful. Before making any appointment or payment, they answered all my questions in detail and with a kind, caring attitude. This is an amazing practice and they go above and beyond to make sure you’re comfortable, understanding of everything, and they help you with every piece of paper work and thing required to get your license. Diane especially was extremely kind and helpful and made sure I had everything I needed to get my license. Dr. Schow was also very kind and informed and you can tell she really cares about her job and her patients. Absolutely positive experience, would %100 recommend this place to get your MJ license .
Ricky was excellent and went Above and Beyond. Very knowledgeable, courteous, patient, great positive attitude and works with Dr. Jose Franquiz. He is an awesome PCP and Compassionate Care Certified doctor to prescribe if needed and very thorough as is Ricky too. Thank Ricky and Dr. Jose Franquiz. They have multiple locations and very accommodating. Sincerely, René
I transferred to this service as my previous service forgot about me! No reminder of my due date for my renewal for the doctor, I found out when I went to buy medication.DocMJ was compassionate and caring to help me get an appointment within 24 hours!Dr. Rothman was very pleasant and understanding of all my health issues and suggested things I hadn’t tried yet. I think I found a new home! Thank you everyone who made my visit comfortable. Blessings
