Got medical records. Now, which doc?

[CosmicScorpio]

I have finally received all of my medical records in the mail that I would need for a doctors appointment documenting my neuropathy and other conditions complete with EMG results and the like . Now what i want to know..is which doctor should I go to? I've heard of Dr. Stoller, Dr. Nardacci, Dr. Eve Elting and probably some others that I haven't heard of. Some of my specialists in the past have been kind of condescending and arrogant also expecting me to know more than I do..effectively intimidating me, :wtf: affecting my ability to communicate with them. I do not want this kind of doctor. If anyone has personal experience with a kind doctor who is receptive and experienced, would you suggest them? Thank you.

I can only help with my experience with Doc Stoller. The guy was cool as hell and I will definitely be going back to him.

I do not have the same condition as you however I hope to offer you some advice that you may not already know.

Don't approach the doc as if they are recommending it for you.You need only a doctor to verify and confirm your condition. That little lined box on your app DOES NOT have to say anything about Marijuana. Many,too damn many,docs look at it as if they are prescribing it for you. If I were you I would try calling docs in your area, explain this, state the records you have and ask if a verification would be possible.

In my opinion your records speak a lot louder than a single doc's view and the review board does not simply verify that your info is in order however they DO make their decision based on content.

I had to get two signatures and not once was anything to do with Cannabis mentioned. I was approved in 10 days.

There are people on here that hopefully will point you in the direction of a doc that knows exactly what you need and is educated and not afraid to be know as the "pot doc". Stoller is in SFE,Elting in TorC so depending on where you reside you may want to call some closer docs and feel them out.

I can't stress this enough...you don't need a recommendation or a "prescription" only a visit and a confirmation that nothing you have tried has provided you with relief. If your records are solid then you should be good to go.

Good luck friend.

or if you are in the Las Cruces area in southern NM, there's Full Circle Health Center.

Greetings Healer,Cruces here also. I hadn't heard of Full Circle,glad to hear that there are people here helping out!

Cosmic: Noder mentioned that NM Green Light helped him out and he seems pleased with the results. If you haven't already seen his post it is on one of the later pages of the Green Light thread.
