Have you tried to develop a relationship with a doc associated with your local MMC? I don't know if you use MMC's or not, but if they can recommend a doc who does the initial visits. It's probably likely that if they aren't interested in a relationship, they could refer you to a more 'friendly' doctor.

I think we're on the same page. I would never consider using my MMJ doc for anything non-MMJ related.

And then there's insurance issues, too. If they accept insurance (if it's not a doctor you pay completely yourself in other words) they'd have to be careful because there aren't any insurance companies, as far as I know, that will cover anything mmj related. Because of that I'd be very surprised if you could find a 'real' doctor who would sign. I could be wrong, maybe there are doctors who would just bill you directly for that, but they probably wouldn't want to risk it/rock the boat with the people who pay them.

My docs know and are mostly okay with it (one of them is concerned about anxiety that I don't have). But they'd never sign.
