Wondering how to get medical marijuana in Florida? This is the medical marijuana doctor group in Florida. Medical Cannabis is Prescribed by licensed Florida Physicians - Serving the Medical Marijuana Community throughout Florida. At the present time, Medical Cannabis can only be prescribed to a very restricted group of patients, such as those with cancer, seizures, or terminal illnesses. Chronic pain and most other medical problems CANNOT yet receive medical marijuana prescriptions (at least not by our practice) until the Florida Government finalizes the rules for doctors. 

If you are a Physician interested in helping patients who will benefit from Medical Cannabis, of if you already prescribe Medical Cannabis, please contact us. We are compiling a directory of doctors throughout Florida who actively prescribe.

What's the status of Legalized Medical Marijuana in Florida?

Florida has an official list of medical conditions for which medical marijuana is considered an applicable treatment. The legal language of Amendment 2 was written to explicitly allow medical marijuana to be provided as a treatment for patients with the following specific diseases:

Amendment 2 was also designed to allow licensed physicians to certify patients for medical marijuana use after diagnosing them with some "other debilitating medical conditions of the same kind or class as or comparable to those enumerated."

Right now, only a relatuve few patients in Florida have been legally able to obtain medical marijuana but only if they had very severe, terminal illnesses and were not expected to survive more than a year. Low-THC medical marijuana is available for a few patients with severe seizures and cancer. The current restrictions on the dispensing of Medical Cannabis under the current laws are quite severe and it is quite difficult to prescribe and obatin medical marijuana. Hopefully the law will be revised in the coming months by the Florida State Legislature to make it more practical and allow doctors to prescribe the treatments the patients want and need. 

The Florida Department of Health (DOH). DOH’s Office of Compassionate Use regulates medical cannabis. All patients need to make sure that the cannabis they are using is from an organization licensed and approved by DOH. It is the Department’s job to verify the content of cannabis products used by patients.
