With medical marijuana becoming more popular in the Sunshine State, more and more dispensaries and doctor’s offices are popping up throughout the Tampa Bay Metro Area. Transferring to a medical marijuana doctor closer to your house might make more sense because of its proximity to your home base.
In today’s blog post we will explain how to transfer to a new medical marijuana doctor after you’ve had an initial certification elsewhere. Canna Doctors of America is here to help you get through the transfer process nice and smoothly.
Transferring To a New Medical Marijuana Doctor in Clearwater or St. Petersburg
Transferring to a new medical marijuana doctor in Florida involves a few straightforward steps. Canna Doctors of America has them listed here:
1. Find a New Doctor: Look for a licensed Florida medical marijuana doctor who is registered with the Florida Department of Health’s Office of Medical Marijuana Use (OMMU). Canna Doctors of America has the area covered whether you live in Tampa, St. Petersburg, or Clearwater. Our offices are strategically placed for your convenience.
2. Medical Records: Contact your current medical marijuana doctor and request copies of your medical records related to your marijuana treatment. This typically includes your diagnosis, treatment plan, and any other relevant medical information.
3. Schedule an Appointment: Use our convenient booking tool to book an appointment at one of our 3 convenient locations. Scroll down on the booking tool page to select “Transfer to Our Doctor”. One thing to note though, you cannot request a specific doctor with our appointment tool. Call us at 855-949-2266 if you want to see a specific doctor for your medical card transfer certification.
4. Appointment Preparation: Bring your medical records and any other required documentation to your appointment. Your new doctor will review your medical history and discuss your current treatment plan for your qualifying condition.
5. Registration with OMMU: Your new doctor will update your profile with the OMMU. They will submit a new physician certification for you, which is required for you to continue purchasing medical marijuana from dispensaries.
6. Follow-Up: Follow any additional instructions or requirements from your new doctor to ensure ongoing compliance with Florida’s medical marijuana program. Canna Doctors of America will ensure you have all the right recommendations for your health condition, regardless of previous recommendations. If there’s another area we think you should get a prescription, we will explore it to help you find relief.
