Information About Booking With Medical Marijuana Doctors In South Houston
The legalization of medical marijuana is relatively new in Texas. Unlike some states, Texas does not provide qualifying patients with a medical marijuana card or require an MMJ card renewal. Instead, qualifying patients in South Houston and around the state complete an MMJ evaluation to become certified for a medical marijuana prescription.
Obtaining a medical marijuana prescription can be easier for many patients than getting a traditional MMJ card because it requires fewer steps. Like a prescription for other medications, patients can fill a medical marijuana prescription at a dispensary in the state once they are certified by one of our medical marijuana doctors.
Searching for how to get a weed card or how to get a medical card in South Houston can be misleading because you don’t need a card. Instead you receive a prescription. At DocMJ, we offer complete transparency in all aspects of our patient services.
Book Your MMJ Doctor Online
Patients can find out if they have a qualifying medical or psychological condition as approved by the Texas Department of Public Safety through our online pre-qualification questionnaire. While the number of qualifying conditions is more restrictive in Texas than in other states, there are efforts to expand the qualifying conditions with the state legislature.
Next, patients can book a telemedicine appointment with an MMJ doctor online for their MMJ evaluations and complete the required intake forms. After the patient meeting, the medical marijuana doctor fills in the necessary information in the state Compassionate Use Registry, allowing the patient to have his or her electronic prescription filled at any dispensary in the state.
