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

Compassionate Marijuana Doctors Serving Cincinnati Ohio

DocMJ Cares for Our Patients

Getting Started


DocMJ Ohio makes getting a recommendation for medical marijuana from a compassionate and qualified physician easy and affordable. You can easily schedule a telemedicine appointment to get started with your medical marijuana recommendation. All DocMJ physicians, in addition to being licensed doctors, have an active Certificate to Recommend (CTR) from the State Medical Board of Ohio and are authorized to permit qualified patients to receive medical marijuana from an approved dispensary. Scheduling a meeting in Cincinnati is easy and can be done conveniently with telemedicine. Whether you live in Mount Adams, Pendleton, Queensgate, The Banks or any other areas of Cincinnati, a patient can make an appointment at a time that fits their schedule. Based on a private meeting with the medical marijuana certified physician, patients receive their recommendation for medical marijuana. Upon determination of their qualifying conditions, patients will be entered into the registry and, in some cases, can purchase medical marijuana the same day.



The Telemedicine Appointment


Patients are required to submit the requested medical records and documentation to one of our medical marijuana doctors for review in advance of their appointment. Once the appointment has been completed, your doctor enters your information into the registry. Having an Ohio medical marijuana card provides benefits such as access to dispensaries in Ohio and various purchase options. Currently, Ohio dispensaries do not allow registered patients from other states to purchase medical marijuana, but this may change in the near future. You will then receive an email with a link allowing you to make a payment to the registry and receive a temporary card, which you can use until your official card arrives. The MMJ card will arrive by mail in 10-14 business days.
