Review by Mary Parise

Lack of notification a problem. Called in a RX. Knew that my Dr. needed to be called to OK it. I called pharmacy 5/6 days later expecting RX to be ready. Was told that they had not heard back from my Dr. Sent a 2nd request to Dr. only as result of my inquiry. They have no system in place to notify a customer if there is a delay. If I had not called in, would still be waiting. When asked why no such system was in place was told that their current system is better than what they had previously.

Review by Jess Bennett

Just my experience, your experience may vary. They're nice in person, but very prone to "forgetting" and "not seeing" prescriptions from my doctor's office. They're not accountable for their mistakes, so you can't get them to apologize or change their policies. TAKE NAMES, time and dates when they say they don't have something. Call their toll free customer service line to complain with their specific mistakes. Best to avoid their pharmacy -go elsewhere.

What is a Dispensary?

A dispensary is a store that sells special items or dispenses the specialized items. Cannabis or marijuana dispensariers started in the US some time in the early 1990’s when Dennis Peron opend the San Francisro Cannbis Buyers Club. Back then the cannabis dispensary faced a ton of hardships, but Dennis, his team and dream helped pave the future for all future recreational and medical cannabis dispensaries. In 2014 the first recreational dispensary, 3D Cannabis opened it’s doors in Colorado. As of 4-1-19 33 states have medical dispensaries and 10 states have recreational dispensaries.

At a dispnsary one will find many differnt kinds of cannabis flowers (buds) and concentrates, edibles along with smoking untensils, but have a limited selection compared to online shops like Elev8 Glass Gallery. The dispensary also will have what is called a budtender to help you find what you are looking for. If you need help with cannabis info Elev8 Presents is a good resource.

What is the difference between a medical or recreational dispensary?

In realtiy medical and recreational dispensaries are the same thing. This all comes down to the states laws on cannabis. We feel cannabis is just like alcohol and medical will happen first and then recreational will follow, and so far history is showing this. Dispensaries are an excellent place for patients and recreational smokers alike to find the cannabis that best suits their needs!
