YOU HAVE TO HAVE A REASON TO GET IT.... LIKE MY MOM SHE HAS CANCER AND WEED MAKES THE PAIN GO AWAY AND HELP HER EAT AND GO 2 SLEEP EASIER... WITHOUT IT SHE HAD A VERY HARD TIME DOING SO. ALSO MY FRIEND HAD A BAD FALL AND HAS A LOT OF Back pain... WEED HELPS OUT. 1) Go to a doctor that specializes in medical marijuana recommendations. Regular doctors don't generally do this. A Google search for 'medical marijuana clinics' will start you off right.

2) Bring evidence that you have a condition marijuana can treat (a prescription bottle, a prescription, or a doctor's note) from the recent past.

3) Bring the fee (usually around $150)

4) Treat the doctor like any other doctor. Act professional. They want to know you're not just a stoner, and can really benefit from cannabis.

5) The office will issue you a recommendation certificate, and in some cases a plastic id card. The recommendation is valid for up to one year.

Note that it is NOT necessary to get the state id card. The state card only comes in handy if you're stopped by law enforcement and need to prove you're a qualified patient. However, many of the clinics that issue recommendations have 24-hour automated verification lines that law enforcement officials can call, and this is just as valid as being in the state database.
