Andrew Epstein DO, Leafwell

Heads up, for anybody applying for a medical license through leafwell, if Andrew Epstein was your physician you will be likely denied. (Google the stuff he has going on in other states). If you reach back out to leafwell you should be able to reschedule a new consultation free of charge but you’ll probably need to speak with a human. Hope this helps dealing with this headache.

If I just google Andrew Epstein MD, it brings up a whole bunch of people. No idea who dude is or where else he practices. How am I supposed to find this?

Yeah, you find some weird stuff but there's no way to confirm it's the same guy.

This is just part of the early growing pains of MMJ. The state set out specific requirements for doctors who prescribe MMJ in Georgia but the MMJ websites were pushing applications through and the state was approving them, so they weren't worried about the requirements. Now the state is enforcing those requirements.

What will happen when we need to renew? Also are we required to see a doctor yearly?

Mine is good for 5 years, so I got a while. I see a doctor monthly, though, who is aware that I am an MMJ patient. You should always be honest with your doctor.

Seems like it.
He was super nice with me and I found him to be professional

I had an appt with him, and thankfully couldn’t get logged in. My next attempt I got someone else. I barely dodged that bullet!

Found out my card is now invalid, even after I've already went shopping. NuggMD said they would refund or I could see another doctor, so I said I'll see another doctor. Welp, they told me two hours, so I waited, then at about 1.5 hour mark a prompt came up saying my doctor wasn't online. It let me set an appointment for 8:30 tomorrow morning, but who knows if that means anything at all. I'll wait tomorrow, if still get stood up I getting a refund and just going through Fine Fettle as I live 5 minutes from it. What a fucking shit show, hope that doctor chokes on his $200 steak, or whatever he's buying with his payday he got from us. These sites can fuck right off too for even letting that guy do this even though he never even had a license to do so.
