The Licensed PA Physicians Who Will Evaluate You — Named & Publicly Verifiable
Most telehealth MMJ services never disclose who your doctor is until after payment. We publish both physicians' names, credentials, and NPI numbers here — so you can verify them on the CMS national registry before you spend a single dollar.
"My job is not to approve everyone who books a call. It is to figure out honestly whether medical cannabis could make a real difference for you — and to tell you clearly either way. Chronic pain patients who have been through every conventional option, veterans managing PTSD, cancer patients dealing with chemotherapy side effects: these are the patients I evaluate every day. If this is the right path for you, I will certify you the same day. If it is not, you will get every dollar back."

Pennsylvania Medical Marijuana Program — What Patients Need to Know in 2026
Key facts about the PA MMJ program — sourced from the Pennsylvania Department of Health and the Medical Marijuana Act (Act 16 of 2016).
About Pennsylvania's Medical Marijuana Act
Pennsylvania enacted the Medical Marijuana Act (Act 16 of 2016) on April 17, 2016. The first dispensary sales began February 15, 2018. As of 2026, the program has grown to over 440,000 registered patients — making it one of the five largest medical-only cannabis programs in the United States, with cumulative sales exceeding $7.68 billion. The program is administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Health's Office of Medical Marijuana. Every physician evaluating PA patients must hold a valid DOH registration — both our physicians meet this requirement.
After Approval — What Happens Next
After your physician submits your certification, you register on the PA Medical Marijuana Program portal at pa.gov and pay the $50 state fee directly to the PA DOH. A digital card is available in your portal within approximately 7 days of approval. Your physical PA Medical Marijuana ID card arrives by mail within 2–3 weeks. You cannot purchase from a PA dispensary until you have your physical card in hand.
Approved Products at PA Dispensaries
Pennsylvania dispensaries carry flower for vaporization, oils, tinctures, pills, patches, topicals, and concentrates. PA allows a broader product range than many states — including vaporizable dry leaf, which was added in 2018. All products at licensed PA dispensaries are tested by DOH-approved labs for potency, pesticides, and contaminants. Patients may obtain up to a 30-day supply per dispensary visit, as specified by their certifying physician. Note: Traditional edibles (gummies, infused food) are not currently permitted under PA law.
