First Dedicated Cannnabis Physician's Office Opens in Lakeland

LAKELAND, Fla. - Oct. 4, 2017 - PRLog -- Medical Marijuana Treatment Clinics of Florida (MMTC FL), a cannabis physician's office whose mission is to help patients receive medical marijuana, is rapidly expanding and now has clinics in 9 Florida cities. MMTC FL's newest clinic opened this month in Lakeland, Florida. As more Florida residents become aware of medical marijuana as a viable option for a variety of eligible symptoms, the need for more clinics will continue to grow. As of mid-September 2017, 36,000 people were on Florida's medical marijuana registry. Many of these patients receive recommendations through doctors' offices specializing in medical marijuana treatment, like MMTC FL. But there is still a large percentage of the population who has questions about medical marijuana and need to be educated. The Lakeland clinic is under the direction of MMTC's Chief Medical officer, Dr. Joe Dorn and Aida Cuascut-Reyes, MD. is also be seeing patients at this location.

MMTC FL hopes to shed some light on the health benefits of the products available in the Florida MMJ market by educating the public at Medical Marijuana Awareness Events throughout Florida. Topics include "What is Medical Marijuana?" "How do you get a FL MMJ Card?" and testimonials from real patients. Medical Marijuana Awareness Events are scheduled for October in Tallahassee, St. Pete, Jacksonville, Orlando and the Villages. Presenters include MMTC FL Chief Medical Officer Dr. Joseph Dorn and other cannabis certified physicians, representatives from dispensaries, and patient panels.

"Floridians interested in finding out more about how medical marijuana might be of help for their medical condition have been asking for conferences like these," said Sonny Davis, president and CEO of Medical Marijuana Treatment Clinics of Florida.

Medical Marijuana Treatment Clinics of Florida also has offices in Jacksonville, Ft. Walton Beach, Miami, Longwood, Pensacola, St. Petersburg, Tallahassee and The Villages.
