Medical cannabis certification for Farmington Hills
A private video evaluation with a Michigan-licensed physician. About fifteen minutes, from wherever you are in Oakland County — no drive, no waiting room.
Book your evaluationWhy patients in Farmington Hills use telehealth for this
Farmington Hills keeps more than one weekly calendar. It is among the most religiously mixed communities in Oakland County, and for a substantial number of households Friday afternoon through Saturday night is not merely inconvenient — it is unavailable, and so are stretches of certain autumn and spring weeks. A clinic that advertises 'evening appointments' as though that settles the matter hasn't thought about it. What matters here is seeing the real slots and choosing one yourself, rather than being handed a window someone else decided was reasonable.
The other pattern here is households with three generations under one roof, and adult children who do the arranging — booking the appointment, setting up the tablet, sitting alongside. That's welcome and nobody needs to ask permission for it. One limit is worth knowing before the day: the physician has to take the history from the patient. A relative can interpret, prompt and stay in the room, but the person being evaluated needs to answer for themselves about their own symptoms. If that isn't going to be possible, say so when you book rather than at the start of the visit.

Get their decision
You'll know where you stand by the end of the call. If certified, we file with the CRA for you.
Who actually issues the card
We don't. The Michigan Cannabis Regulatory Agency (CRA) does. Michigan's medical marijuana program is administered by the Cannabis Regulatory Agency, which took over the functions previously handled under LARA. The state — not this clinic — issues the registry card and sets its own processing times. If the physician certifies you, we file the certification on your behalf — but we can't promise a date, and nobody who tells you otherwise can either.
Questions from Farmington Hills patients
I can't take an appointment between Friday afternoon and Saturday night. Is that a problem?
No. You pick from the slots that are genuinely open, and those run Sunday through Thursday including evenings. If a run of holidays makes a whole week impossible, book further out — scheduling weeks ahead costs you nothing.
My parent's English is limited. Can I interpret for them?
Yes. Visits are conducted in English and a family member is welcome to help. The physician still needs your parent to answer questions about their own symptoms, so plan for a slower conversation rather than one where you speak on their behalf.
Can I book the appointment for someone else?
You can arrange it, but the patient completes their own intake and their own consent. If they can't do that themselves, tell us before the visit — there may be a capacity question the physician needs to work through first.
Two of us in the house want this. Can we do one appointment together?
No. Each person is evaluated separately, because each evaluation is a separate clinical judgement and a separate record. Two people in the same household can take slots back to back if that's easier to organise around.

This page is general health information, not medical advice, and reading it does not create a physician–patient relationship. Certification under the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act (MCL 333.26421 et seq.) requires a qualifying condition, determined by a licensed physician exercising independent clinical judgement. No one can promise you will qualify, and your fee pays for the physician's time and judgement rather than for any particular outcome. Michigan's program rules change; confirm current requirements with the Michigan Cannabis Regulatory Agency (CRA). Cannabis remains a Schedule I controlled substance under federal law, and a state registry card does not change federal law, override an employer's policy, or affect federally regulated testing requirements. In a medical emergency call 911. For mental health crisis support, call or text 988.
