Thousands of patients across Florida have been certified for medical cannabis at Leafwell’s new pop-up events in Orlando, Jacksonville, and Miami. And these pop-up locations are expanding, with Tampa, Fort Lauderdale, and other cities on the horizon.
Why free certifications?
At a time when healthcare costs are skyrocketing and millions can’t access affordable medicine, Leafwell is on a mission to make it easier and more affordable for patients to get natural, effective, plant-based treatment.
Medical marijuana is playing a growing role in pain management, anxiety relief, and the treatment of other conditions.
In Florida, individuals interested in using cannabis medicinally are required to speak with a doctor in person to get certified. These certifications can cost anywhere from $100 to $300, which prevents many patients from seeking care at all.
Leafwell is stepping in with a bold solution: free medical marijuana certifications at in-person pop-up events across Florida.
About Leafwell’s pop-up events
At these events, patients can get evaluated by cannabis-knowledgeable physicians and certified for free. After certification, individuals also have the opportunity to meet with friendly staff from leading local dispensaries, such as Curaleaf, Sunnyside, and Insa, who provide event-specific promotions and discounts.
The experience is seamless for patients and enables dispensary partners to reach new customers and educate them about the best products and strains for their needs.
Check out highlights from our first pop-up event in Orlando, where over 450 patients were certified:
