Hi, I called them today, spoke to Dave. He said they have 65 patients on the call back list for RI. The Dr. will come for a 3 day clinic once they have around 150 patients that are registered for appointments. He didn't say but it looks like it may take time unless they get more of a response. If you are even thinking about it and don't know if you qualify please give them a call.
I'm faxing over my last 4 Dr. visit notes today I hope. I have neuropathy in both my left leg and left arm. If it takes much longer I may give a local Neurologist a call to set up an appointment. I am a Veteran and have been visiting the VA Hospital here in Providence for the last 10 years. They don't recommend MMJ and my current Dr. is unable to assist due to the conflict of interest. If there are any patients that see a compassionate neurologist send me a PM or message! thanks...

wow good job patient0 did you know that it is against state law to release a doctors name who does medical marijuana and holds a penalty of 6 mounths jail time and a 1,000 dollar fine. its people like you that harm and will single handedly bring down a program that over 2,000 patients are in good job

Try this link. It should cost $150. or maybe sliding scale if you r on SSI.
There's a phone number but you must have a qualifying condition.

hey guys, this is my first post on this website but i've been a long time reader. So I too am in search of a doctor to sign my recommendation. I was diagnosed with crohn's disease five years ago and have had difficulties keeping it in check. I have tried prednisone, flagyl, pentasa, asacol, mercaptopurine, had surgery 8 months ago to no avail and have now been turned to anti-TNF agents (scary how powerful they are). Luckily for me i have found that even when all of these options have failed and i begin to become ill again, marijuana has always allowed me to maintain as normal a daily routine as possible. My problem now is that i cannot find a doctor that is able to help. My previous doctor whom i had known for 15 years abruptly retired and thus my plan for receiving a recommendation has been halted. So i'm asking anyone out there who thinks they might be able to help, for a push in the right direction. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

PS: if you feel more comfortable contacting me via e-mail, i can be reached at [email protected]. thanks again

check updates below.

I am a patient in RI with documented IBS and GERD.

You commented on my post looking for GI dr's in RI. If you are still practicing, I would like to schedule an appointment with you or another cannabis friendly colleague. I feel much more comfortable speaking with someone that is familiar with the laws and practices and I am not yet comfortable as I have just recently switched primary care physicians. Please message me if you can help me in any way. Thanks!

:question:I can assure you, there are Doctors who, with the cash payment of medical services, will sign a, "Physician Consent" form. As facts will sustain, there are serveral. As was and is the case in California, and other marijauna approved states, there WILL be an element of social smokers who bypass the normal requirements. That's reality! There is a reason it is considered the, "largest cash crop" in America! The process of becoming approved in this state, is relatively easy. For that reason, if you are qualified, or require a Doctor to sign for your physical needs, know they most certainly do exist !:thumbsup:

Hi,
I have been trying, unsuccessfully to find a doctor that will write the MMJ for me. I have chronic severe pain (sciatica for 19 years.) I am on pain meds and have depression/panic/anxiety problems. My PCP said he woul not write for me because he was educated on how MMJ works for peole with depression issues. I just need to find a legit Dr., not one that wants to be paid $450.00 to write the recommendation.

Can anyone help, Please?

Patient0, I'd appreciate it if you took down the information of the doctor from this forum. Not only is it incorrect it is also illegal to post his information without his consent.
Thank you
