Review this location
Friendly staff, had a decently long consult with pharmacist. Prices on higher side but this isn’t supposed to be a cheap product. I do wish they knew if things were indica or Sativa based because I certainly would prefer one over the other. Otherwise it’s in a discrete location in a small strip mall of maybe 4 or 5 stores. No giant billboards in parking lot saying Pot Shop calling out to cops. Easy to find. If you know where to look.

I went late, due to bad directions... but that was not from this location... and they were super nice and allowed me in anyway, even though it was about closing time. I knew little to nothing about weed, aka: flower, so as advised by my own doctor, (who happens to also be a prescriber), I consulted with the pharmacist on that night. I did read what has been said by others, but I haven’t looked anything up about the oil used. I actually got relief from many different serious pain issues... migraines, fractures spine and my written PTSD seems to have responded some, looking back, right then. The receptionist was super nice and I do intend to go back. I’m not sure if they offer ongoing discounts for me being on SSI, so that may be a deciding factor. I have tried each in my area, just so I know I can hopefully get an idea of costs. So far, I haven’t hit any of them twice. I plan on stopping by or calling soon when I’m feeling better, and seeing what’s up!

Location not great and it is small but I made an appointment and had a lengthy conversation with the pharmacist. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Did a reorder via on-line and I was called on my pick up day as a reminder. Pick up was quick and again, staff was very attentive.

No. Sorry, I am sure the employees here are very nice people but the negatives prevail. Vape juice is 50% coconut oil which probably should not be vaped. The product is ridiculously expensive and tastes like ass. $130.00 for a month's supply of high viscosity motor oil from unknown strains. Sativa? Indica? Don't know. Neither did they. The place itself is kind of creepy, I'm sure it must be clean enough, but it's tiny and cramped. I won't be going back.

Horrible. Asked if mct was in vape juice... “pharmacist “ said no directly to the question while on his own security camera. It had small effect. Nothing in comparison to ANY other dispensary in our state.. plus they over charge by nearly
Double. And don’t tell you the price until after the consultation... and you almost feel obligated to purchase. Not a good spot. Only if emergency go here . Plus they’re product knowledge is terrible.. ask them how their oil was originally extracted from the plant... crickets is all you will here. Sorry for the bad review. People invested their lives into this business. It’s just a shame they let it fall apart..

20Vape juice uses MCT oil which is NOT supposed to vaped - the red oral solution had ZERO effect even after incrementally increasing dosage - mother in law who is also a patient reported same (and she has no tolerance at all.) Everything is expensive, which would be ok if the products were decent but its like throwing money into the wind with most of their products. And having to wait over an hour for my prescription that was ordered the day before... closing the dispensary during its (only) 3 days of operation and cancelling all orders with no follow up to help patients get their medicine... very unprofessional. The staff is nice and it's not their fault, but I'd be very interested to see the actual amounts of THC/CBD in these products (oral solution/pills particularly) as it is clearly not what they state on the bottle. Definitely looking elsewhere

30It was difficult to obtain medicine because this place is understaffed and open very limited hours. The vape oil is a diluted mix of 50% cannabis and 50% coconut oil.

Super hard to find. In a shady strip mall. Employees lack basic knowledge. Went to buy vape juice, after purchase asked if it was PG or VG.... and it’s COCONUT OIL!!! You can’t vape that! I was like, guys, you can’t vape this, they insisted I could. So I went to the local vape shop and told them what I just bought, they all laughed and said OMG don’t buy shit from that place. Well, I tried to vape it and OUCH!!! Burns!!!!!! And zero effect. What a huge waste of money. On a few drops of coconut “vape” juice.
