We are a team who believes in the medical benefits of cannabis; but, we’re also keenly aware that a large percentage of the population doesn’t know where to start on their cannabis journey. This is why we promise to treat every patient with respect, compassion, and love.
We’re all on our own journey and we promise to respect yours.
How Long Does It Take To Get a Card in Maryland?
The process to get a Maryland medical marijuana card can, unfortunately, be quite lengthy.
After you submit your initial application, you’ll need to wait for a follow-up email from the commission. This can take anywhere from five to 45 days.
Once you’ve gotten this follow-up email, you’ll be able to move forward and get your certification from a physician.
After this certification has been submitted, you’ll get your temporary card and you will be able to visit a dispensary. Overall, you should expect the process of getting a medical card in Maryland to take about two months.
Maryland Medical Marijuana Doctors
To get your written medical marijuana certification, you’ll need to visit a doctor who is registered with the Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission. Not all doctors in Maryland are currently registered with the commission, although the state is currently pushing for more medical providers to join the program.
Elevate Holistics works with board-certified doctors who are registered with the commission and are familiar with medical marijuana. Our sessions are HIPAA-compliant and completely secure.
Not only will our doctors assess your condition and provide you with the written certification that you need, but they can also answer any questions you may have about using marijuana properly.
They can recommend the appropriate products and dosages for your condition and address any concerns that you may have.
Can Minors Get Medical Cards in Maryland?
Yes, minors can get a Maryland medical marijuana card! However, they just cannot do so on their own.
In order for minors to get their MD MMJ cards, they must have a parent/guardian register on their behalf. These figures will be referred to as “caregivers” in the medical cannabis system. A minor’s caregiver is responsible for visiting dispensaries, buying products, transporting products, and even administering products if need be.
Sadly, Elevate Holistics cannot provide appointments for those under 18 at this time.

Is marijuana legal in Maryland?
Yes, marijuana is legal in Maryland both for medical patients and those over 21 years old.
However, medical marijuana patients receive more benefits than adult-use consumers, including lower taxes, higher possession limits, and priority service.
What documents are needed to get your medical marijuana card in Maryland?
To get your Maryland medical marijuana card, you’ll need to submit a digital copy of a valid photo ID. This can be a driver’s license, a state ID card, a US passport, or a military ID. If your ID does not prove your Maryland residency, you will need to submit two additional documents to prove that you live in Maryland.
You will also need to submit a high-quality photo that clearly shows your face on a white background. One of the best ways to get this photo is to use an app or service that takes passport photos.
