Wow, I didn't think I was the only person to have issues with this place, but after reading the reviews this is exactly what I had to deal with. Hand made signs definitely did not make me feel comfortable releasing my protected health care information. They do not have the capacity to request medical records due to the fact they are not a real doctor's office, nor do they have a doctor or any kind of health care professional on site AT ALL. Justin Henderson, ARNP is seen through a computer screen. I felt so uncomfortable with this jenky process I renewed my license elsewhere afterwards. I used to work at the front desk of an unnamed doctor's office in the area. I do not go to Mari Meds. There is not enough privacy for me, I have a job in the area where I can not be seen at a pot shop along with the illegitimate patients they are processing through Pakalolo. And yes, the monopoly Bob and Lori have set up in unincorporated Mason County (Belfair) is sickening, especially their malice intentions toward the law and law enforcement. I have heard such comments come directly out of their mouth and posted on their Facebook account.I happen to have family in law enforcement and it does not work in your favor to have such disgust for them when they protect and serve our community. The man who works at Pakalolo has no real knowledge of the law, otherwise he would have the doctor come into the office and see the patients as any other legitimate doctor's office would. And NO matter what LORI KENT says, she is NOT a health care professional. All you have to do is a little research on these people to understand what their intentions are. Shame on me once, I will continue to tell all of my friends and networks the truth about what is happening in Belfair, Washington. No wonder Shelton wouldn't let these weed dealers into the city! Do not be put under the thumb of the $30/gram prices of Mari Meds, and the illegal status of their authorization site. Read the law, familiarize yourself with it. Make up your own mind as I have. If this industry wants to be taken seriously places like this need to be regulated especially if they are so blindly violating the law. read more

Medical Marijuana in WA State was enacted for terminal and debilitating conditions NOT in order to sell weed to 18 year olds! This is exactly what I found when I entered this shameless facility. If I knew this was owned by the dispensary Mari Meds (Bob Wood and Lori Kent) I would have known why there was a room full of adolescents being authorized without medical records. They have you fill out a form saying they are providing "diagnostic screening" but you don't even physically see the doctor! This is the perfect place to go for the 18 year olds who have nothing wrong with them and just want to be able to go into Mari Meds and buy their weed and sell it to their friends. Establishments like this one are the whole reason the DEA keeps raiding medical marijuana dispensaries. Not to mention the fact Bob Wood and Lori Kent have created quite the little monopoly there in Belfair, Washington. Glorified drug dealers seriously taking advantage of the sick and dying. No one is exempt from the Law and the business or dealing weed to our youth without qualifying conditions is a shameless act and I hope this establishment is dealt with accordingly. If you have ever been into Mari Meds or this Pakalolo place you will immediately understand. Heck, look as you drive by Mari Meds! All you see is kids going in there to get pot! I have children that age and I can't bear the thought of them going to this Authorization Mill just to be sent back to Mari Meds. If you are truly sick and need your authorization, go anywhere but here to guarantee yourself legal status. Any more people being mislead is just shameful. read more

This chop shop took my money! i went to go renew my authorization for the 6th year in a row and have never experienced anything like this. first, they had hand drawn signs in the window which made me feel strange at best. it looks as if they could up and move overnight! second, when i came for my so called "appointment" with the doctor i was sat in front of a computer screen and told to "skype" with the doctor. i am familiar with skype because i talk to my daughter away at college all the time using this service but i am also familiar with the law......this is not my first rodeo! the law was changed on july 22 to say you have to have an in person appointment. this was rininging in my ears as i got up and left and demanded my money back. all of the sudden their polite demeanor disappeared because i was told i didn't know shit and i couldn't have my money back and if i'm stupid enough to make the appointment there i'm stupid enough to let them keep my 80 bucks! i was told to leave and i did.I HAVE CANCER DUDE!! i am sure they knew this review was coming because i told them this is a small town and if you treat and mislead people like this it will kick them in the butt! i have since found another place who has helped me obtain a LEGAL authorization! read more

Anyone that thinks this is a legit medical marijuana clinic is out of their mind. Quick recap.. Big Brown Bob aka Robert Wood aka Nod Off Bob and his partner in crime, Lori Kent aka The Philanthropist, are a greedy bunch of basically gutter trash. They opened a medical marijuana dispensary in Belfair Washington where they over charge sick and dying patients.. 15 to 25$ grams.. I have seen it at $30 at one point. Now they are trying to suck more money out of sick patients by operating a half assed medical authorization clinic. If you want to get turned away from any Access Point in Mason County besides Maris Meds, goto Pakalolo and get your card. Also if you are just some punk ass trying to get stoned, they will hook you up. They are just after the money. I hope people like this are wiped clean from the MMJ community. We have no room for you. read more

Do not go here! It is owned by the dispensary Mari Meds and NO OTHER DISPENSARY will take my paperwork other than Mari Meds! What a scam! 80 flat rate with only 1/3 of the paper work you need! how is this even legal?? met with the doctor over SKYPE which i come to find out later is NOT LEGAL EITHER! had to obtain a legal authorization from elsewhere and when i went back to mari meds to complain they wouldn't open the door!!!!!!! SCAM SCAM SCAM! unless you dont want to go to a real dispensary and just stick with mari meds you need to find a legal place to GET AUTHORIZED! read more

YAY! No driving all the way to Bellvue or Tacoma!!! Didn't have to sit there and wait for hours! AND...They actually CALL YOU BACK when you call with questions, unlike a few other clinics I tried to contact before I found Pakalolo. The friendly staff made sure the process was smooth and I was in and out fairly quickly, not an all day adventure. They are affordable and I felt very welcome and comfortable, my anxiety about the situation was eased. Thank you! read more
