needing a MED Dr in Central Wash State....seems that since retail, the MMJ drs are scarce!

..I want to renew my card... after 2 years... to get a higher dose CBD product and can only do it with a card But.. seems all the docs are in Seattle 2 hrs away or Spokane 3 hrs away. Are there any in Central Wash? I found a listing for 2 in Yakima but neither phone number works.

They are easy to find in Colorado even with retail. Although most of them have raised their price quite a bit. The cards used to cost more than the medical appointment. Now the cards are about $16 but the medical appt is closer to $100 or more. Cards are only good for one year here.

...but with the conversion the state gives a sheet of ugly paper and any retail yahoo with a camera can take the photo. Well Im 67 and close ups dont work! I made the kid take my photo about 4 times but they all looked the same. They are good for a year as well. I can meet my needs with retail except Wash state hasn't allowed private grows yet and I got a cpl grows. And if Sessions closes down the pot stores I think he will exempt medical.

I did find a provider...my old one actually has a once a month office about 45 min from here so Im all set!

In Maryland the cost to see a dr is anywhere from $200 to $250. That’s what I call a “racket.” 😢

Maryland mmj recommending doctors, at least on the “far right” eastern shore, are few and far between, while most dispensaries on the Delmarva peninsula are in Delaware. I saw this bumper sticker which read “Maryland’s Eastern Shore, on the RIGHT side!”
