Find a Dispensary

Follow-Up Care
Ohio law requires that your medical marijuana doctor in Ohio observes the effects of cannabis as a treatment. It’s also crucial to remember your Patient Registry/Dispensary ID Card will expire one year after issuance. We recommend scheduling your annual in-person follow-up 30 days before your card expires each year.
