The Process
For those who are curious about the dispensary and patient experience, we have broken down how the process works and what to expect.
New patients who visit the store are asked to present a Maryland ID as well as the certification form the state registered with a doctor. From there, patients will fill out basic intake paperwork with contact information, medical history, and consumption guidelines. Next, patients will meet with a dispensary agent to discuss ailments and their goals with using cannabis. The patient and agent will work together to find the best products to fit any needs. It is important to note that a doctor will only give you a recommendation to use cannabis, it isn’t until you visit a dispensary that an agent will be able to help you find products that are best fit for you.
Common Ailments
We are always learning more and more about the medical uses for cannabis, however we have broken down a list of common ailments that we treat most at Mary and Main. Patients who come into the store are most commonly looking to treat chronic pain. Chronic pain can consist of a multitude of things and can have many sources. Patients and a dispensary agent will be able to take a deep dive into their chronic pain and then recommend an appropriate product. Some other common ailments that are treated in the store include depression, anxiety, cancer treatment management, HIV, Multiple Sclerosis, high blood pressure, diabetes and more.
Usage and Impact
Many patients will have questions about how cannabis works for different ailments and the dispensary agent will be able to assist everyone individually and answer any questions. To put it simply, the efficacy of using medical marijuana to manage pain is due to the endocannabinoid properties found in the plant, which is thought to play a key role in how the body regulates and manages pain. As research continues, the current findings are good indicators that medical marijuana holds the potential to continue lowering opioid usage in North America.
Above anything else, Mary and Main aims to continuously understand the needs and desires of our patients so that we can offer them the most comfortable, pleasant and safe experience while always operating within the laws and regulations of the state.
