Green Health Docs; a first hand review

In my own quest to obtain a physician’s certification I’ve been met with disappointment on more than one occasion. Following my own advice about talking to a doctor about medical cannabis, I started a conversation with my family physician. I did so at a yearly appointment but quickly found that my doctor was mostly unprepared for the conversation. In fact, he couldn’t tell me if or when he would consider giving certifications. I also struck out with a specialist I see.

Not to be dissuaded, I set out to find a doctor that is friendly to medical cannabis. Nifty use of google quickly led me to Green Health Docs, who were opening a clinic near my home town of Columbia, Missouri. I scheduled my visit to ensure that my certification (if I got one) was no more than thirty days old prior to the date on which I could apply with the state (July 4, 2019). I at least wanted to discuss it with a knowledgeable doctor.

June 13, 2019 finally arrived and I was the first in the clinic doors that morning. I had with me the needed documents and, as I stepped of the elevator, was met immediately by a clean, friendly environment. The smiling staff welcomed me and soon thereafter I was filling out a rather standard form regarding my medical history and so forth.

Through the length of my visit, the physician and other support staff remained very friendly, non-judgmental, and full of helpful information. The experience met my expectations very well and, at the end of the visit, I walked out with the needed certification in hand. Although the office was opened to specialize in medical cannabis, I didn’t feel at all as though it were a rubber-stamp process.

I definitely recommend Green Health Docs. I feel like they truly cared about my well-being and will likely renew with them next year as well.

Have you found a doctor open to the idea of medical cannabis? Feel free to leave a comment below as I’m sure there are a lot of people who would like to know, but are hesitant to ask.
