Find a Registered Medical Marijuana Doctor In West Virginia

The first step in getting your WV medical marijuana card is to be evaluated and certified by a state-licensed medical cannabis doctor.

It can sometimes be difficult for patients to find a doctor who will certify them. We currently offer in-person evaluations at our 4 clinic locations as well as online telemedicine visits that allow you to be seen by a medical cannabis doctor from the comfort and security of home, making the search for a physician easy for you. If you think that you may have one of the state-approved “serious medical conditions” and have at least one form of proof, you will most likely qualify.

Our doctor can evaluate you, review any medical documentation you are able to provide and certify you for the program. Once certified, you will be able to apply with the state for your card so that you can begin purchasing at dispensaries as they begin to open.

Register with the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources

The next step in getting your West Virginia medical card after being certified by a doctor is to register and apply online with the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources. To register, patients will need to have:

Signed Physician Written Certification Form (this will be issued by your certifying provider)
Proof of West Virginia residency

You will also be required to upload a passport size photo (from the shoulders up with a white background; no hats or glasses). This photo can be taken on any camera or cell phone and then cropped to the appropriate dimensions on the state website. If you’re having trouble submitting your application to the state or any part of the registration process, we recommend contacting the state directly for support at 304-356-5090

What is a caregiver?

Caregivers provide a service for medical marijuana patients (including those under 18) who cannot or do not wish to go to a dispensary to purchase their medical marijuana. A caregiver is able to purchase medical marijuana on behalf of the patient as well as help adminster the medication. Caregivers are only appointed by patients and must be 21 years or older and register with the state as a caregiver.

The West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources online medical marijuana registry is now open and can be accessed here. The application fee is $50 for both patients and caregivers.

Will my insurance company cover the certification process, consultation, or medical marijuana application in West Virginia?

No. Insurance companies do not cover any costs associated with medical marijuana due to conflicts with federal law.

Where can I get medical marijuana once I am certified for medical marijuana in West Virginia?

Legal patients will be able to purchase medical marijuana products from licensed dispensaries that will be located throughout the state. Patients will also be able to use their card in other medical states that offer reciprocity, such as Pennsylvania and Washington D.C.

No. The state decided not to issue physical ID cards, but patients will be required to have the digital copy of their medical ID card in order to be able to purchase from dispensaries.

How much medical marijuana can a qualifying patient possess at one time?

Medical cardholders will be able to purchase and possess up to their 30-day allotment as determined by their doctor and the state. The exact amount has yet to be decided.

What forms of marijuana will be available to purchase in West Virginia?

West Virginia recently added cannabis flower to the list of approved forms of medical marijuana allowed in the state, meaning virtually ALL forms of medical marijuana will be available for purchase at state licensed dispensaries. This includes pills, oils, topicals, flower, tinctures, liquids, dermal patches, and more.

Can I grow my own medical marijuana or can my caregiver grow it?

No. The state does not allow patients or caregivers to cultivate medical marijuana. Only a state-licensed cultivation facility can grow medical marijuana.

Will anyone be able to find out that I am a West Virginia medical marijuana patient?

No, as a medical patient you are protected by HIPAA. Green Health Docs makes the privacy and security of our patients’ confidential information a top priority. No one will be able to find out your status as a medical marijuana patient unless you openly tell them or if you are administered a drug test for marijuana.

Can my employer still administer a drug screening for marijuana if I am a legal medical patient in West Virginia?

Yes. With West Virginia being an at-will state and there not currently being any legislation in place that protects medical marijuana patients in the workplace, medical cardholders can still be administered drug screenings and receive disciplinary action regarding the results of drug screenings. For this reason, we recommend making sure you are fully aware of your employer’s policy regarding drug screenings and medical marijuana before moving forward with the process.

Can I Still Get a West Virginia Medical Card If I’m on Probation or Parole?

West Virginia does not have any restrictions regarding patients on probation or parole, however, you must get permission from your probation or parole officer first before pursuing a medical marijuana card.

What happens if I am stopped by law enforcement?

As a legal medical marijuana patient, you are protected. Patients do not have to disclose that they possess medical marijuana and do not have to consent to a search. However, if a search is conducted and medical marijuana is found, the patient should immediately present their patient ID card or direct law enforcement to the state patient registry to show that they are a legal patient.

Do West Virginia dispensaries recognize other state medical marijuana ID cards?

No. You must be certified in West Virginia by a registered medical marijuana doctor to legally access and purchase from dispensaries in the state.

Can I use my West Virginia medical marijuana card in another state?

Yes, there are multiple states currently accepting West Virginia medical cards including Pennsylvania and Washington D.C. The laws for using out-of-state medical cards vary from state to state, so the best way to find out is by contacting a dispensary in the state you’re interested in visiting to find out for sure.

Can I renew with Green Health Docs if I was seen by a different doctor last year?

Yes! You do not have to be seen by the same doctor each year. If you were certified by another medical marijuana doctor last year and would like to switch to Green Health Docs, we will be happy to take care of you!
