Frequently asked questions

Do I need to drive to Olympia or Lynnwood for my MMJ card from Tacoma?

No. Renewal appointments and many new patient evaluations can be completed via telehealth from Tacoma. Book online — if you need an in-person visit, our Olympia clinic is under 45 minutes away.

Are there dispensaries near Tacoma that accept medical cards?

Yes. Pierce County has numerous licensed retailers. Your WA medical authorization card provides tax savings available at any licensed WA dispensary.

Can I get my Washington medical marijuana card via telehealth?

It depends on whether it's your initial authorization or a renewal. WA RCW 69.51A.030 requires the initial physical examination to be in person — we hold those at our Lynnwood clinic. Annual renewals can happen via telehealth if your provider documented at your initial visit that an in-person renewal would be a hardship (this is called compassionate-care eligibility, and it's specifically permitted by WA law).

Why do I have to come in for the initial visit?

Washington statute (RCW 69.51A.030) requires the initial physical examination to be in person. Some online services advertise telehealth-only initials, but we don't offer that — see our why-in-person-initial page for the full regulatory explanation.

How long does a telehealth renewal take?

Renewal appointments are typically 15–20 minutes. You'll learn the decision the same visit, and your new written authorization is mailed within 3–5 business days.

What technology do I need for a renewal?

A smartphone, tablet, or computer with a camera and microphone. No app to download — we use a secure browser-based video platform.

How much does it cost?

Initial visits at the Lynnwood clinic are $175. Annual telehealth renewals are $140. Payment is collected online at booking — no surprise fees.
