How to Get a Medical Marijuana Card in Florida

Book An Appointment

Schedule your appointment with DocMJ on a day and time that is convenient for you. This is a no-risk appointment, we provide a 100% money-back guarantee if you do not qualify.

Meet With a Doctor

The State of Florida requires that all patients visit a doctor in person to complete the health evaluation for the first time. We have thirty offices located across Florida. A friendly DocMJ doctor will consult with you and talk about your symptoms, medications, and wellness goals. This is an excellent opportunity to learn how mmj can improve your life.

Get Approved

When approved, you will receive a recommendation for mmj. The physician will upload the recommendation to the Florida Department of Health, OMMU. Recommendations are entered into the registry on the same day. Patients will then recieve an email from the state to apply and pay for the state card. In some cases, patients may be able to purchase mmj the same day following their appointment once the medical card process has been completed. Your medical card will arrive by mail approximately 10-15 days after you have been certified by the doctor and apply to the State.

Very thorough and answered all my questions.
Great customer service. Brilliant staff!
Response from the owner:Hello! Thank you so much! We're glad you had a great experience—our team truly appreciates your support!
I had a great experience with Dr. Derbes and was satisfied with his service. I found out recently that he's retired (godspeed good sir) so I went to the office for an appointment with Dr. Lamb. Dr. Lamb is just as good and maybe a little more informative. I had a great experience and plan on continuing with Dr. Lamb and DocMJ for the foreseeable future. Shot out to the office staff and intake nurse as well. Thanks for everything y'all.
Response from the owner:Hello Chet! Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re honored to have had Dr. Derbes as part of our team and are thrilled to hear that Dr. Lamb provided you with equally excellent care.

Due to my regular provider falling ill, I was asked to come in and see Dr Lamb for my follow-up. What a great provider. He was warm and personable, sharing that he started working in mmj after seeing it help someone he loved (not my story to share details of) and that really spoke to the kind of doctor he is. He didn’t just ask questions and recertify me, he made sure I understood all of the options available and how I might use them in tandem to lower my symptoms. His advice was something I was able to take to the dispensary and explain and the results were nearly instant. I’m really grateful to DocMj and recommend them and Dr Lamb to anyone seeking compassionate and informed treatment.
Response from the owner:Hello Elaine! Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad Dr. Lamb provided compassionate and insightful care, helping you find the right options for relief. Your kind words mean a lot, and we appreciate your recommendation!
