Medicann (Sacramento)

I went to the Medicann clinic recently in Sacramento to get a recommendation.



The facility is essentially a "home" based business, not a retail or clinic front, if you wanted some anonymity, you should park in the parking lot of the county office building or the parking lot on the on the corner of Watt and Freedom Park and walk to the next building down the road. (house with brick trim, also has an electrical company sharing the premises)

The doctor was polite, he saw me for about 10 minutes, depression/anxiety and persistent migraines (4-6 times weekly)

I am using several grams per day to treat these conditions

the Doctor did decline to recommend any plant amounts over the state/county limits, he said it is Medicann company policy. (limits in my county are state baseline, 6 mature OR 12 immature and 1/2 pound of dried buds. while only an hour away in Oakland, the city limits are 72 plants, and up to 7 pounds of dried bud.)

this is my review of the facility/my appointment, and their policies.

Wont that be tight if you could smoke alot just cause you got pain.

Dude I went to the same exact place 2 days ago...great experience I just wish they would have went over more rules but that what the internet is for

Did they issue you a card on the spot?.. or are they gonna mail it to ya?
Just curious.

i've been seeing them for 4 years now.

read everything on this site......California NORML

man i wish i lived in cali. !!!!!! what the hell, i just dont get it.
i mean im in new hampshire and they just this month passed a bill saying that you can have a 1/4 ounce of bud and only get fined up to $200.00. like thats a big break for us smokers ya know. you guys in cali got it made. if the old lady ever leaves me i know where ill be relocatin. peace

haha yeah man, I mean they dont give it to anybody but if you go in there, talk to 'em right and not act like a jackass then they'll most likely hook you up with it

my apt in the bay area lasted all of 2minutes..

yeah, I was a little disappointed in the appointment overall, I have since called around to other doc's in Sacto and it seems like medicann is a little lacking in some respects.

if you want to get a state baselimit card and dont want anything else, than its a good place to go... dont get me wrong, they do their due diligence, you will need a reason, and other prescriptions and history is usually needed to get the scrip.

other doc's in the area supposedly do a more thorough job, some even do a physical, recommend strains for your specific medical issues, and as private practices... they are open to recommending over the state baseline for mothers, clones and flowering plants also possessed all at the same time.

the doc told me that its medicann corporate policy to just issue the scrip, and let state/county limits stand. they dont want to have to defend their recommendation infront of the CA medical license board, thats what I think.

sorry to bring this back from the dead but i was gona go to this place and wondered how strict they were on a med. history, and if anybody had any ways of tip toeing around that, a pm wood be well aprecciated

If they ask for a history at this place you might want to go somewhere else... I didn't need anything other than my ID and money at the place I went to..

I don't know that they would have asked for it, but I have some serious conditions so I asked my real Dr. to type out a synopsis of my diagnosed problems and medications I have been on, because I believed that I would need it.

for all I know he didn't, and would have written the scrip without it.

yeah better to be dsafe than sorry.. I had my regular dr. note that I have a prescription from another physician for it as well..=)
