Medical Marijuana Doctor Tampa
Dr. Green Relief marijuana doctors in Tampa provide Florida medical marijuana card certifications under Florida law. Book your appointment with our Tampa medical marijuana doctors today. Florida requires an in-person exam before a first certification, and the physician explains the possible benefits and risks for you. If you are certified, our staff help with your state ID card application.
Florida lets only physicians on the OMMU qualified physician list certify patients, so any Tampa medical marijuana doctors you consider should appear on that list, which the OMMU updates weekly. If you are considering medical cannabis, a new patient evaluation here is $199, and renewals and transfers are $99. Our physicians see Tampa and surrounding areas at one office on N. Habana Avenue. Money-back guarantee: if the physician does not certify you at your visit, your evaluation fee ($199 for new patients at our Tampa office) is refunded. The $75 state ID card fee is paid to the Florida Department of Health and is not part of this refund.

Smokable: buy up to 2.5 oz per 35 days | Possess up to 4 oz
Smokable certification is at the qualified physician’s discretion under Florida law.

Florida Medical
Marijuana Card Program
How does the Florida medical marijuana card program work for Tampa patients? A qualified physician examines you in person and may certify a listed condition or, at the physician’s discretion, a condition that passes the comparable-condition test in Florida law; you then apply to the state for your ID card. Today’s law grew out of Amendment 2, which 71.3% of Florida voters approved in November 2016. To get your Florida cannabis card, you first have to be certified by a qualified physician. Once you receive a physician’s certification and state ID card, you’re protected from state-level criminal prosecution for the use, possession, and purchase of medical cannabis in Florida in accordance with state law.

Medical Marijuana Laws
With a certification and an approved ID card, Florida law lets you buy, possess and use medical marijuana in the amounts your physician orders. In Florida, only a qualified physician, an MD or DO with an active, unrestricted license who has completed the required two-hour course and exam, can add you to the Medical Marijuana Use Registry.
Tampa

FAQ
How much does a medical marijuana card cost in Tampa, FL?
Getting your medical marijuana card in Tampa through Dr. Green Relief costs $199 for a new patient evaluation. Whether to certify you is the physician’s medical decision at that visit. After your doctor enters your certification into the Florida Medical Marijuana Use Registry, you pay a separate $75 annual ID card fee directly to the Florida Office of Medical Marijuana Use, bringing your total to get started to $274, plus $2.75 if you pay the state fee online. Renewals at our Tampa office are $99, and each certification lasts up to 210 days.
Does depression qualify for a medical marijuana card in Tampa?
Not by name: depression is not named in section 381.986(2), Florida Statutes. A qualified physician may still certify it if it is of the same kind or class as, or comparable to, one of the listed conditions other than a terminal condition or chronic nonmalignant pain, and only the physician who examines you can decide that. Our Tampa marijuana doctors can consider depression, anxiety or insomnia only under the comparable-condition clause in Florida law; PTSD is a listed condition.
Can I get a medical marijuana card the same day in Tampa?
No, the card itself takes longer. Once our Tampa marijuana doctor evaluates you and enters your certification directly into the Florida Medical Marijuana Use Registry (MMUR), you apply online for your state ID card. The OMMU then reviews your application, and you can buy from Tampa dispensaries once it is approved. The OMMU’s approval and processing times, online and by mail, are in the answer below on how long it takes to get a card.
What conditions qualify for medical marijuana in Tampa?
Florida law (section 381.986(2), Florida Statutes) lists these qualifying medical conditions:
- Cancer
- Epilepsy
- Glaucoma
- HIV (positive status)
- AIDS
- Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
- Crohn’s disease
- Parkinson’s disease
- Multiple sclerosis
- A terminal condition diagnosed by a physician other than the one who certifies you
- Chronic nonmalignant pain caused by, or originating from, a qualifying medical condition and lasting beyond its usual course
After examining you, a qualified physician may also certify you for another condition, such as some cases of anxiety, depression, migraines or neuropathy, if it is of the same kind or class as, or comparable to, one of the listed conditions other than a terminal condition or chronic nonmalignant pain; that decision is at the physician’s discretion, and certification is never promised. Anxiety, insomnia, depression and migraines are not on the list, so the physician decides at your visit whether yours meets that test.
Can I renew my marijuana card online in Tampa?
Yes. After your initial in-person evaluation with a Tampa marijuana doctor, you can complete future certification renewals with that same doctor via telemedicine without returning to the office. A physician certification lasts no more than 210 days, and the Florida OMMU ID card is renewed each year for $75. Telemedicine renewals with that doctor are $99 and can be completed from home.
Does insurance cover medical marijuana in Tampa?
Florida’s constitution does not require any health insurance provider or government agency to reimburse expenses related to the medical use of marijuana (Art. X, s. 29(c)(7)), and marijuana is not reimbursable under workers’ compensation (section 381.986(15)(f)); ask your health plan, including Medicare or Medicaid, whether it covers any part of an evaluation or renewal. The state’s $75 ID card fee is due with each new and yearly renewal application to the OMMU.
How long does it take to get a medical marijuana card in Tampa?
The OMMU says online applications take an average of 10 business days for approval, and its October 9, 2026 weekly update lists 5 business days to process a complete application and 5 business days to print the ID card. The wait is the state’s review, not the visit. Once our Tampa doctor enters your certification into the Florida MMUR, you apply for your state ID card and can buy from Tampa dispensaries as soon as the OMMU approves it. Applying online is faster, because applications sent by mail take 3 to 5 days longer, per the OMMU. Your certification then lasts up to 210 days before your next visit.
Can I use my Tampa medical marijuana card at dispensaries in other Florida cities?
Yes. Your Florida medical marijuana card and physician certification are valid statewide. Once certified and registered in the OMMU system, you can purchase cannabis products at any licensed dispensary (a medical marijuana treatment center under Florida law) in Florida including Sarasota, Fort Myers, Orlando, Miami, and beyond.
