• Chronic or debilitating pain

• Epilepsy or seizure disorders

What to Expect and Cost

Your first appointment must be completed in person, as required by law. During this visit, we’ll evaluate your current health conditions, medical history, and any supporting documentation you provide. If you qualify, you’ll receive a written certification form. From there, we’ll handle submitting your application to the Kentucky Office of Medical Cannabis so you can receive your medical marijuana card.

Kentucky medical marijuana cards are valid for one year, so be sure to schedule your renewal on time to maintain access to your treatment.
