They try to do it that way also at some places here in Michigan.If u got an Issue u can find a doctor to sign it.They may charge u $200.00 but its worth dealing with a doctor that is for medical marijuana.
My wife's regular doc gladly signed the paper work for her renewal, to our deep gratitude and delight. Being unsure, we initially went to the THC Foundation Clinic and forked over our $200.00. There are now some other Michigan clinics that focus on filling out the forms.
