3 Steps to Get Your Card
Step 1
Book An Appointment
If you are a new patient that has not registered with the Dept. of Health, book a free consultation so we can get you registered and answer any questions you have. At the end of your consultation, we will schedule your appointment with the doctor. If you are already registered or renewing your card, book an appointment with the doctor.
Step 2
Talk To A Doctor
Answer the phone when the doctor calls you at your scheduled appointment time to complete your evaluation. All appointments are conducted via phone and payments are processed securely online with a credit or debit card. If you are not approved, you will receive a full refund.
Step 3
Get Your Card
After your appointment with the doctor, you will need to pay a fee of $50 online to the Dept. of Health to have the card mailed to you. *Patients who qualify for (MMAP) are exempt from this fee.

Renewal of card — really easy!
This is the third time I have had to renew my card, and for once it was simple, easy, and straightforward. Making the appointment online is quick; taking the call and working with the doctor was easy and (dare I say) almost relaxing — for once I had no panic attacks during the session. It’s definite that I am going to be back here the next time I need to renew. If you want to renew your card, this is the place to do it. A-1 service!
Common Questions
When should I renew my card?
You can begin the renewal process within 60 days of the expiration date on your current card. The PAMMJ team recommends renewing your card at least 3 weeks in advance to ensure your new patient card is delivered before your current card expires. It can take up to 7-10 business days for your new card to arrive after the appointment with the doctor.
