Hi Matthew, it is possible that you might meet the criteria for chronic pain as a qualifying condition for the Medical Marijuana Program. More recent documentation of medical care to show that they are active, ongoing issues would be needed however because of the old nature of your injuries. -Oliver Park, MD

Hi Gregory, any documentation you have on hand would be helpful as well as a list of your medications and a NYS ID. If there is any additional information we need, we can always just have your other health providers fax them over. It shouldn't cause a delay in getting your patient card.
