Verilife - East Syracuse (Med)

I chose Verilife as my first stop after receiving my MMP card simply because of it’s location being convenient. I am completely new to all the program has to offer, and even though I did plenty of my own research ahead of time, I knew I’d still require quite a bit of assistance during my first visit. From the moment I entered, I felt comfortable and among helpful, friendly people- staff and patients included =) That alone helped ease my anxiety a great deal. I noticed a lot of activity among the staff- constant hustle and movement, working with clients. My wait wasn’t long at all (< 10 mins) when Tom came to get me and lead me back to his desk. He was simply outstanding with me and I can’t say enough about his customer service skills! He is super knowledgeable, professional & friendly. He explained the menu thoroughly, as well as my individual eligibility. He never made me feel rushed during our time and answered all my questions (and there was a lot!) as he helped guide me along to help me put together a small beneficial starter supply of items to begin treatment. I went from feeling inexperienced and intimidated before my visit to feeling surprisingly confident and enthusiastic to begin my new journey just after this one encounter. I’m so happy I chose Verilife for my initial dispensary experience! Thank you so very much for all you do!

Is is a very friendly environment, clean and tidy and welcome. And the employees are very kind and helpful as well.. but.. everyone who comes here has a card it’s the law we are here for a medication that helps us to everyday tasks, or some are in serious pain, I say this because the product you are paying for ex. a 85$ bottle of ground flower, shouldn’t be shake, shouldn’t be filled with stems, and most of all it shouldn’t be weak. It should do what its purpose is meant for. This people’s medication, I understand if some people need less potent medicine, but it should not cost over a hundred dollars to get a couple grams of decent ground flower. When in reality if someone is in serious pain and need they will find alternative methods of finding the medicine they need, legally or otherwise. And it’s sad bc it’s the whole point of having a license so that you don’t have to go through 3rd parties. Some price adjustments are definitely needed, I could understand 85$ for extra strength, but charging over 100$ for only a few grams is not right.

Staff is great in every way. Even when they have to defend the product. I've been a user for years, of medical marihuana, and understand that NY is in the beginning stages of the business, but, the fact that they tried to up charge a so called "EXTRA STRENGTH STRAIN" is simply dissapointing and caused me not to come to this location again. From $85 to $115.... it is a pretty high surge for "tested extra strenght". Number one, what you get here in those containers is what is called "SHAKE" in states like CO and CA. is the last left from the harvesting of the flower. so it is full of tiny twigs and little stems all over. Price is already high, so to go get my usual 2 $85 strain of "shake" a week for $115 each was very dissapointing. Came in the blue top container one. Compare the quality of the Blue Cap container (branches and overly dry) to the Wooden Cap container (more fresh and not as dusty or powdery). I'm going back to my other Dispensary with much dissapointment but sure that in a few months this whole surcharge and crazy prices this and other locations are doing is going to end once competition starts popping all around NY. if you're new to this and don't mind surcharges for a so called "stronger strain" this is a great, clean place to go to. With excellent staff and great energy.

I've been to ALL the medical dispensaries in the Syracuse area including the new non- medical ones & Verilife has them ALL beat hands down! Even though some products are the same, their attention to me & my family when we come in is priceless! They even kept my 4yo nephew company while I cashed out which was SO nice. They seem to REALLY care about their consumers & don't even mind dispensing education along with the products. I REALLY like them!!🤩👍🏾
