Ok, looking for an alternative for my Dad for all his pain and sleeping pills. So looking for a Dr to give him a card and test the waters of cannabis. Not a good first impression, nothing against Tattoo's, Bail Bonds and Massage Parlors but when they are all in the same building at the Dr it makes you wonder. Paid the $70.00 cash for my Dads card and was sent to back room for a skype conference call with the Dr. Ok, don't judge a book by it's cover so I won't. 3 min later we have my Dads card so now it's off to the recommended dispensary. Yikes, sketchy place for sure but nice enough staff but all for the head not for the pain. So we passed. Just made a call for a home delivery for a lotion and candy bars. Look, the place was easy, too easy to get a card. Makes Sal Goodman look legit. read more

Bait and switch. Should have read the reviews before coming here. The ad in the OC weekly implies a $30 fee for what you would assume would be a standard 1 year recommendation, but it's only for 3 months. The real prices: 1 year evaluation (new patient) = $70 1 year evaluation (renewal) = $50 Registration fee = $10 Law enforcement ID card = $30 Cultivation license = $300 Growers ID card = $50 read more

DO NOT GO HERE!!! The say it's $39 for a but they're liars. False advertisement and crappy customer service. This place should be shut down. I wish I could give them negative stars. I'm even a returning patient but the rude front desk girl said it's under new management, so the prices are different now. read more

I was honestly a little nervous to go here after the Yelp reviews, but I thought hey, why not, it's close to my house and they take walk ins. Prices are listed on the window when you arrive. Yes, the building is sketchy- located in an area with a few questionable massage parlors and Yes, you see your doctor via video chat. That wasn't a deterrent and All in all it was inexpensive, quick and close to home. The receptionist was very straightforward with pricing and friendly and I was in and out within 20min. No complaints here. 4 stars for pricing and ease of visit. read more

on my way now confirmed $30 price and year rec prior to visit so we will see I will update after. Ok well if you take the time to ask detailed questions prior to visit and confirm details you will have a great experience. I did call like 3 times and spoke to a helpful guy named Jack i think it was he answered my questions each time and got my named and left it with girls at desk to make sure to give me the advertised price which they did it was a nice clean place and it was quick and painless the girl was nice. It was a skype doctor but he asked the right questions. If you do you due diligence and are a informed customer that ask questions and confirms price in advance you will have a great experience. read more

After reading some of the reviews i was a bit sketchy about giving this place a call So i gave a call asking about the medical marijuana services and the lady i was talking to had like a snotty attitude and was chewing gum very loud into the phone I asked about when the doctor was going to be in and she said thursday? So i was midway through a sentence and i hear "ugh" and then she hung up on me? I would not come here at all Very rude service and seems to be very sketchy read more

***BEWARE!!!*** I have MULTIPLE warnings for you. Take which one(s) you need: 1. I couldn't find the prices for this place anywhere online. I called and left a message, and they called me back immediately, confirming that it was $50 for a NEW patient, ONE YEAR. They also sent me an email telling me it's $55 for NEW PATIENTS. When we arrived (I took my PHYSICIAN dad who needs treatment for chronic illness, otherwise has never taken marijuana before) - they told us that no, it's $100!! (BTW, they are $40-$60 elsewhere for ONE YEAR, not far from this place) 2. BOGUS scare tactics in their "marketing" to unknowledgeable folks to make a quick buck. They offer you a way to "save money" by buying their $299 "cultivation license". THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A CULTIVATION LICENSE!!! - with your recommendation, you are AUTOMATICALLY allowed 6 mature and 6 baby plants by law. The second BOGUS scare was them trying to sell you their ID card. The sign read, "DON'T LOSE YOUR REC!". ??? Why would you lose your recommendation? If you show law enforcement your recommendation - whether it's in card or paper form, you'll be fine. Other offices offer ID cards for CONVENIENCE (not carrying a paper around, but rather having a handy card in your wallet) - but this place puts the fear in you to get it with threats of your rec being "taken away". ?? Also, it's a whopping $30 - those cards are $20 elsewhere. 3. After making us wait FOREVER, even though there were no other people in there before us, the receptionists FINALLY took us to see the doctor. My dad was VERY eager to meet the doctor as he is also a doctor and this would be his first time on this kind of treatment. We were led to an empty room with a laptop in the middle of the room. When we asked where the doctor is, the receptionist replied that he's not in today, but will talk to us through Skype by laptop. ??!!!!! My doc dad was shocked on multiple levels. He didn't know where to begin on how that's unethical as a doctor. After seeing the BS marketing on their walls and being lied to about the price, then topping it off with no doctor other than through a laptop, WE LEFT. We're supposed to pay $100 to talk to some dude on Skype? 4. There are reviews online of dispensaries NOT RECOGNIZING RECS FROM THIS PARTICULAR OFFICE - saying that the doc is a phony Skype doctor, so his recs are NOT VALID - so after spending your money and time, in the end you will not have a legit rec to use. YIKES! BEWARE on multiple levels!! read more

First..its cash only.. oh surprise! They have an atm for a fee located conviently in the lobby.. The whole med mary card is a scam anyway. You pay 100 for a card and then you can smoke all you want... So no problem just go to a "dr" for an evaluation and youre on your way.. But the dr was rude and wouldnt let me back with my fiancee blocking me at the entrance holding up his finger saying "una" - um... he clearly speaks english and why he addressed me in Spanish was another sign of disrespect. The whole experience is a little more than sketchy anyway.. but thanks for solidifying that ... doctor. After my fiancee got out she told me the dr was so old he would ask the same questions over and over forgetting what he asked after he already wrote it down. Wow. read more

They quoted me 39 for renewal. I am going in today. I will let everyone know if they try to raise price. If they do, I am going to City of Costa Mesa to file a complaint. Won't take many complaints to shut businesses like this down. We will see how they are when I get there. read more

I've gone here 2 years in a row. The doctor is a little old but does a great job informing you and finding the right recommendation for you. I will definitely be coming here next year. read more

Total bait and switch. Place is as shady as can be. They advertise price, then when you get there ,they ad on all these extra fees. They are a scam for profit evaluation center that gives credible establishments a bad name. Could care less about patients or their needs. City should shut this hole down. read more

I was in and out in about 10 minutes since I was the only customer. Prices are listed on the window in front of the receptionist to the left. The chat with the doctor is over Skype. What I disliked was the fact that he didnt look at me when talking to me. Just read from the paper and stared down the whole time. read more

The place is a little ghetto and the doctors a little strange but what makes up for it all is the receptionist she is very sweet and accommodating and the process is insanely quick!! Plus there's plenty of parking and a little hard to find but itsjust upstairs read more

Dont go here they are bait and switch scammers!!!!! Most evaluation places are but this place is worse the ad says 30 bucks but it's actually 60 the troll who works there will try to tell you the ad just hasn't been updated but thats what they said a year ago go to fourth street medical they also advertise in the weekly but they dont play games its a flat 34 bucks-jose sanchez read more

I got my medical listen every a while ago and forgot to write a review. This place is so awesome...I highly recommend it

I was about to get my new rec here, found them through the OC Weekly ad. There, they advertise "$30 All Patients", which one would assume would imply a standard one-year rec. Not so. If you inquire, it turns out that they are probably the only office in all of OC that has different tiers of recs from one to three to twelve months, and of course, you guessed it, the $30 is NOT for the 12 month rec. I was in a rush and money was not really an issue so I said, "F it". I sat in front of the monitor. Nothing. After about 10 minutes of trying to connect to the doctor, I said "thanks but no thanks", then I went down the street to ReLeaf Wellness. It's also video chat there, but at least they follow the market pricing as it currently stands - same price, FULL YEAR (and the doctor on the other side of the monitor actually connects when you sit down). Sorry guys, I tried to give you a shot. read more

In and out within 10 min. Perfect Service. $60 First time 1 yr. Rec. No appointment necessary.

The receptionist Ivy was very helpful and answered all the questions i had. I had a pleasant experience and would definately recommend people to go check it out read more

We had a great experience here. The receptionist was helpful and friendly. We were in and out in about 20 minutes. They answered all of our questions. MOST of all.. They DID NOT tell us a different price from what we were quoted over the phone. Please keep in mind, when you are calling that there is a $10 registration fee, which is not part of the cost of your recommendation. Also, the Photo ID card is an extra $10 as well. Make sure you are asking the right questions, if you want right answers.. And, your experience here will be as good as ours. read more

This outfit has the worst service possible. There was a girl sitting behind the counter with her legs up as if she owns the place. Rudely just sat there looking at me waiting for me to say hello to her. I stead of her greeting me as a customer or patient in this facility. Then when I said hello she still didn't respond back with a greeting. Instead She Said; "New or current patient?" Then I said new...she replied with $80. Obviously these guys have no idea that we have so many choices out there. I simply walked out. Extremely rude and no doctors at the facility. It's a doctor on the phone that just verifies what you need then asks the ugly receptionist to collect the fee and issue the card. Such bogus. read more

I will never come here again can u say "profit over patients." I could not be more discussed there prices have tripped 300% from when I first got my rec here and when I asked them why the prices where raised they had no logical explaination I'm really disappointed to come here and see my favorite worker was fired as we'll I had 30+ referrals and now none of them count for anything cause the people who work there don't kno me plus I had to see a doctor over Skype talk abou awkward (I would give this place negative stars if I could) read more

I think this place is a joke. I have been going here 2 years and never seen the same person. Expecting to get a quick reprint for my renewal they made me sign ALL the paper work again (I've been going here 2 years for my Rec and they didn't have my documents saved?) The doctor wasn't even there in person!!! As I sat in a empty room waiting for him to answer the Skype call?This is the most illegitimate business I have ever seen, the doctor (after sitting in the room alone for about 5 minutes) finally answered the Skype and was eating food?! I'm sorry but come on buddy put the bag of chips down for 5 mins (if he even talked to me that long) he asked my name and why I used MMJ I felt like this was insanely shady and they just take your money regardless of your condition. Sorry to say but this hole in the wall "doctors shack" I wouldn't even call it an office will not be seeing any of my hard earned money have fun ripping patients off and providing what made me feel extremely uncomfortable. This is a JOKE if this guy is legit i don't know what is anymore ... read more

Beware! They advertise in OC weekly $30 coupon for an evaluation. When I went there with ad in hand they did the eval then tried to charge me $70 saying they didn't see the coupon in my hand. When I complained we settled on $50. A friend went there and as I warned him he held the ad/coupon up and he was told the coupon price of $30 was only for a 2 month permit (no mention of this in the ad of course). The ad/coupon is a scam. But if you want to pay $70 then this place will give you the letter. There are other legit places that will provide a letter for less than $70. read more

total scam they told me 60 on the phone i ended up paying 80 for my card

Rip off Bait and switch these people are scam artists the price was 39.99 for returning Patients but they said it was going to be $50 cause I didn't renew withing 15days of getting my original rec. Places like this make me sick they got some Hodgebodge doctor skype writing Recs Don't go to this place go to a real doctor that specifies in Cbd research read more

Unprofessional, misleading advertising they don't even have a actual Doctor there that you see in person. Instead you are seen over a iPad on Skype then after they try to jip you. Overcharging patients this place has a different price for everyone who comes through the doors. Such a sham place go to another evaluation center one that's atleast honest in their advertisements and doesn't try and stick you with a month or 6 month recommendation so they can charge you again when it runs out. read more

Had to repeat myself many times to be heard. Doctor was old slow. Not a pleasant experience and would not return

Recently got a medical Marijuana Recomendation here, great Doctor! very knowladgable and great staff. The waiting room was very nice as well. Fast , Cheap and Easy i will be back next year.. ive already sent 4 people here read more

This place is a scam. I came in to get my renewal and the receptionist wanted to charge me $50. Their add in the oc weekely says 30 and of course I brought it in. She says they change their policy blah blah blah and its $40 for 6 months and 50 for 1 year. Now you guys can go ahead and lick my balls for your horrible false advertisement. For my last renewal I came here. It took the doctor 40 minutes to get me my renewal. I told him what pain I have with my actualy doctors file. and thats why I need it. I mentioned that my pain was keeping me up so I was having a bit of trouble sleeping but that wasnt my point. As soon as I told him that he got really unprofessional and frustrated and told me he cant get me renewed because they dont give them out for insomnia. I didnt not mention anything about having insomnia. He started raising his voice. The receptionist came in and told him that he needed to evaluate me l. She had my file and the doctor had 2 people telling him that my file was not for insomina. We tried to get that threw his thick skull. and hes started arguing with the receptionist took off his coat and put it on her head and was close to just walking out of his office. He kept telling her you be the doctor then and all this noise for nothing. He had about 10 people after me waiting. And its a small office so everybody was in the mix. The receptionist got on the phone with her HR and HR wanted to talk to the doctor and she was chasing him around the office trying to get him on the phone. It was a really mess. And took way longer than it needed to. Honestly fuck your guys office. Fuck your doctor and your policies. This is no way to treat patients. Now im reading these reviews and it says you got to go threw skype to talk to him. They need to shut this place down its no good. I give the place a negative 5 starts.. read more
