A Master Guide to Buying Medical Marijuana in Naples, Florida


-      The preliminary steps to qualifying for a medical cannabis card and where to procure medication in Naples.
Ever since late 2016, the medical marijuana landscape in Naples has been changing. In fact, it’s been the same for the entire state of Florida since the passing of Amendment 2.
As cannabis has moved into the mainstream, more and more Floridians have been getting their medical marijuana cards. The industry has continued to grow with no signs of slowing down.
Unfortunately, that doesn’t always mean that everyone has equal access. In fact, when it comes to buying medical marijuana in Naples, it’s not always easy. Thankfully, that doesn’t mean that it’s impossible.
Here’s a master guide to buying medical cannabis in Naples.
  1. Qualifying Conditions
Before being able to buy medical marijuana in Florida, someone must first fall into a certain subset of the population. That subset is the people who have one of Florida’s ‘qualifying conditions’ that enables them to receive their medical cannabis card.
Thankfully, the list of conditions that qualify people for their card isn’t as heavily limited as it is in some other states. That list includes conditions such as:
     Cancer
     Anorexia
     Multiple Sclerosis
     Parkinson’s Disease
     Chronic Pain
     Severe Anxiety
     Sickle Cell Anemia
     Migraines
     Lyme Disease
     Arthritis
     And much more
While having a qualifying condition is a prerequisite to buying medical marijuana in Naples, it’s not the only one. More importantly, a person needs a medical cannabis card. First, however, they’ll need to speak with a doctor.
  1. Finding a Doctor for a Recommendation
Going to a new doctor’s office can be intimidating. That’s perhaps especially true for first-time appointments with a medical marijuana doctor. However, there’s no reason to feel intimidated at all!
The only thing to worry about is making sure you work with a reputable physician.
Unfortunately, there are companies that are trying to take advantage of Floridians looking to get their medical cannabis in Naples.
It’s not every doctor, though. Some are only looking to help people get the best medicine available.
That’s why Dr. Athina Kyritsis is operating in Naples, Florida. An appointment with Dr. Kyritsis is as welcoming as it is informative. Contact her Office today to establish care with her.
Once you are connected with her office, you may be eligible to receive your recommendation for medical cannabis as soon as the first appointment. However, a recommendation doesn’t mean you can buy medical marijuana in Naples. There’s one more thing to do.
  1. Applying to the State of Florida
Walking into a dispensary with a recommendation from a doctor for medical cannabis will only get you shown to the exit. A recommendation is not a valid prescription for medical marijuana; it’s what entitles you to apply to the State of Florida for a medical cannabis card. To receive a medical marijuana card, there are a few simple steps.
-       Log-in to the Medical Marijuana Use Registry at this Link.
-       Find the ‘Your Card’ link and click on it; it’s on the top of the page.
-       Upload identification under the ‘Proof of Residence’ section.
-       Electronically sign the application.
-       Submit the application.
-       Submit payment for the application.
-       Print or save confirmation of the receipt.
-       Wait for your application to be approved.
-       Receive approval and buy medical marijuana in Naples.

  1. Purchasing Medical Marijuana in Naples
Once you’re registered with the state of Florida and receive your medical marijuana card, you’re then free to purchase your medicine in Naples. However, there remains one final restriction that makes it difficult: Collier County’s decision to ban dispensaries.
While the issue has been repeatedly brought before the county, they’ve so far refused to license the creation of dispensaries within the county. Thankfully, nearby counties, such as Lee County, offer relief.
For some dispensaries, they’re willing to deliver to the residents of Collier County, including those in Naples. Likewise, Naples’ residents are allowed to travel to nearby counties to get their medicine.
While it’s not easy to buy marijuana Naples in Florida, it’s still possible, and the county may be swayed once they face litigation, according to Naples News.
