​ Jacksonville Patient Testimonials

Kathryn, 54

Kathryn, 54
Jacksonville Beach

– 5 months on medical cannabis
– PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), Celiac Disease, chronic pain, sleeping problems
– Previously treated with traditional pain medication

I moved to Jacksonville, FL to get new start in life and the fact that the Mayo Clinic was close (I thought would be good for me), was a deciding factor to move.

I started going to the clinic in Jacksonville Beach and the staff there is so very helpful and really do want to help everyone that comes into their office. I wanted to get off prescription medication, as I have Celiac Disease and sleeping problems since I lost my spouse.

I have been using medical marijuana to combat PTSD and chronic pain. I was using prescription medicine in pill form, 4 times a day to manage my pain and 3 pills at night to manage my sleeping problems. But since taking medical marijuana, I am almost down to not taking any pills at all. This had been a great help to also manage the stress level and anxiety issues as well.

I have been sleeping better and feel more rested in the morning. Since starting medical marijuana, I am able to concentrate/focus more at work.

If you can qualify for medical marijuana, I think you should go the nearest MMTC and seek help and get information on what types of the medical marijuana is for you, as there are so many different forms and strands to help. I still haven’t found a strand that helps me eat more, but I’m still working on that and maybe in the next few months I will be able to eat more.

Medical marijuana had truly been a blessing for me, plus it is healthier on my organs and my blood work is better since I stopped taking the medicines for my pain and sleeping issues.

A really good plus is that the staff at the dispensaries are very helpful to get you the right medical marijuana for what you need.

Applications may then be submitted online through the Medical Marijuana Use Registry website or mailed to the Office of Medical Marijuana Use, along with a $75 registration fee. The Department accepts applications from patients and legal representatives.

    How do I renew my medical marijuana card in Florida? 
    To maintain an active Medical Marijuana Use Registry identification card, a patient and/or legal representative must annually submit a renewal application, along with the application fee and any required accompanying documents to the department forty-five (45) days prior to the card expiration date.

Medical marijuana may be recommended for a “Debilitating Medical Condition,” which in this case means cancer, epilepsy, glaucoma, positive status for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Crohn’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, or other debilitating medical conditions of the same kind or class as or comparable to those enumerated, and for which a physician believes that the medical use of marijuana would likely outweigh the potential health risks for a patient. You can view an expanded list of conditions which often qualify for cannabis-based treatment here.

    What do I need to bring to my appointment? 
    MMTC providers request that you bring supporting documentation with your diagnosis or prior treatment to the clinic at the time of your initial appointment. In addition, please bring identification or proof of Florida residency. if you have questions about which documents to bring with you, give us a call at 850-906-5000.

    Do I need the Registry ID card first? 
    No. In fact, a medical cannabis provider such as those at our clinics must qualify you and complete an assessment before you can be assigned a patient ID number, which you need in order to apply for the card through the state Office of Medical Marijuana Use.

    Do you take my insurance? 
    Unfortunately, medical cannabis is still federally illegal, therefore no insurance company has elected to cover cannabis-related treatments.

    Is my medical information secure?
