Man these fuckers are no better than the pill mill pain clinics in florida. I live in Seattle, and the price ranges from $75-$360 for the recommendation for a year ($360 was from a gynecologist that writes them, I'm a guy hehe). Then if you get a recommendation from 1 place, none of the others will accept it, you have to get each dispensary doctor to give you a recommendation at their fee if you want to buy their products...average fee is $200/year.
Then the place I had my $200 card through got home invaded, owner shot, and the cops shut down the dispensary making my card worthless. Extremely rare to find a primary doctor that will recommend it. I just got a narcotic prescription and the doctor won't recommend herb to eat as an alternative. I begged.
Needs to be a place disabled and poor people can go, like the DMV, with a criteria you need to meet(like just having a narcotic prescription should open up edible cannabis to you as an alternative ffs), where you can pay $30-$40/year for a license. Shit make it a photo id.
