Medical Marijuana
Medicinal Cannabis is now legal in Virginia and medical dispensaries are now operating. This therapy has been reported to alleviate a large range of chronic illness symptoms. Washington D.C. has also granted reciprocal access to its dispensaries for Virginia medical cannabis card holders. If you have a condition that might benefit from medical cannabis, NP Wendy is available to discuss your health problems along with the potential benefits and risks of medicinal cannabis use. If this therapy is something you’d like to explore, she can provide Virginia residents the necessary medical certification and instructions on registering to receive your medical cannabis card.
