    Take a visit to the California chapter of Norml to find a listing of physicians that are available for consultation as medical cannabis specialists. It does say note: Patients should have a documented medical record of diagnosis and treatment or a physician referral.

    when you go to your doctor, make sure that you mention that you're not interested in taking pills or using perscription medicines. dont ask straightforward that you want medical marijuana, but ask your doctor if you are eligible for any "alternatives." you have actual pain and actual injuries and diagnoses to back up your claims. so, try it!

    dont go thru your personal doctor....most regular doctors arent educated on mairjuana or the laws surrounding it so they are very afraid to give a recomendation and they have every right to be. Just go get a copy of your records from your doctor and go to a clinic that specalizes in medical marijuana.

    When i tried to go thru my personal doctor she told me she wasnt educated enough on marijuana to give me a recomendation. When i went to the medical marijuana clinic I had my recomendation within 10mins.

    no to get your rec you have to go thru a doctors office...i recommend medicann or norcal health care , google both for their websites.

    Cali Toker knows his shit and you have rights dude

    If pot is what helps you personally no government has the right to deprive you of it so try for a club card everywhere you can. They can think whatever the fuck they want it's your pain relief that matters

    It is my opinion that you should have little problem attaining an MMJ card.
