You’ve been thinking about trying medical marijuana, but you’re not sure where to start. You’ve probably Googled the process, maybe asked a friend or two, and now you’re wondering:
How long does it actually take to get a MMJ card?
We get it. That question comes up all the time. And the truth is, if you’re working with the right people, it doesn’t have to be a long, complicated ordeal.
MMJ Medics has thrived for years now due to its dedication to simplicity, speed, and lack of complications, and for how streamlined our card-issuing process is, we focus on real timelines.
Step 1. Book Your Appointment
Time Taken: A Few Minutes
Let’s face it, no one enjoys answering arbitrary questions that are not relevant to them, nor waiting in queues on the phone.
That’s why we’ve made the first step easy.
Hop on our website, pick a time that works for you, fill in a few basic details, and you’re set.
Time: 3 to 5 minutes. Seriously.
Step 2: Talk to a Doctor
All online, no need to be physically present
Next up: your consultation. This is a quick video chat with one of our licensed doctors who actually listens and knows what they’re doing.
You’ll talk about your symptoms, conditions, and history. Just an honest convo about whether MMJ is a good fit for you.
If you qualify (and most do), they’ll give you the thumbs up right away.
Time: 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 3: Get Approved (Timing Depends on Your State)
Here’s where the timeline can vary a bit.
Some states are super fast and send out digital approval within an hour. Others might take a few days to officially process everything and get your card to you.
But here’s the good news: we walk you through the entire thing. No guessing, no stress. You’ll know exactly where you stand at each step.
Typical timelines:
- Instant (0-1 hour): Some states issue temporary cards on the spot.
- 1-3 days: Most approvals fall in this range.
- Up to 14 days: Rare, but possible in slow states or during high-demand times.
Either way, you’re not alone. We’re right there with you.
What’s the Total Time?
Most of our patients are surprised to hear this:
You could be fully approved in less than 24 hours.
That’s right. From booking your call to getting green-lit, it often takes just 1 to 3 days, and in a lot of cases? Same day.
