Medical Marijuana Card in Miami Approved by Licensed Doctors

Your appointment with our doctor takes about 5 minutes, and Oklahoma needs 7 to 14 days to process everything. We submit your application to the state right after your visit, and they mail your physical card once approved. Most Miami patients get their cards within two weeks of their appointment.

Applying for your Oklahoma medical marijuana card in Miami requires a valid photo ID, current proof of Oklahoma residency, and a physician certification from our doctors. Having these items ready before you start helps you avoid delays that could slow your approval.

• Valid government photo ID such as an Oklahoma driver’s license, state ID card, passport, or military ID that proves your identity
• Recent proof of Oklahoma residency from the past 90 days, which can include utility bills, mortgage statements, lease agreements, or bank statements showing your Miami address
• Physician certification from one of our Oklahoma-licensed medical marijuana doctors, which you receive after your 5-minute video evaluation with us
• Payment for Oklahoma’s $100 two-year application fee, which you submit online directly to the state using a credit or debit card
• Digital photo of yourself that meets state requirements, similar to a passport photo showing your full face clearly
• An email address for your Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority account, where you’ll access your digital card once approved

Qualifying for a medical marijuana card comes down to three requirements: Oklahoma residency, being at least 18, and a licensed physician believing cannabis can help your health condition.

• Residency: You must be a legal Oklahoma resident and provide proof such as a state-issued ID, driver’s license, or utility bill with your current address.
• Age: You must be 18 or older. Patients under 18 can qualify through a designated caregiver who manages their treatment and purchases.
• Qualifying Condition: You need a medical condition that a state-licensed physician recommends for cannabis treatment. Oklahoma doesn’t maintain an approved list, so your physician decides if cannabis addresses your health concerns.

Our physicians conduct evaluations to determine if medical cannabis aligns with your treatment needs, and we guide you through each step of the certification process.

No, you don’t need medical records for approval. Our licensed physicians assess your current qualifying condition and symptoms during your evaluation appointment. The information you provide about your health concerns and their impact on your daily functioning helps our doctors determine eligibility. If you have medical documentation available, you may share it, but it’s not necessary to receive your medical cannabis certification.

State law permits all standard forms of medical marijuana, and dispensaries in Miami carry these options for cardholders:

• Oils – Available for vaping or oral consumption, follow product instructions for proper use.
• Capsules – Take orally like standard medication for precise, repeatable doses.
• Edibles – Cannabis-infused gummies, baked items, candies, and food products.
• Topicals – Creams, lotions, and balms applied directly to skin for localized pain relief.
• Tinctures – Concentrated liquid extracts placed under the tongue for quicker absorption than edibles.
• Liquids – Cannabis-infused drinks and liquid concentrates you can consume directly or mix.
• Dry flower – Raw cannabis buds for smoking or vaporizing, including specific cultivars like Cherry Kiss available at Miami locations.

Your medical marijuana card won’t appear on employment or criminal background checks. The OMMA patient registry is confidential and not publicly accessible. Employers and landlords can’t access your records, and HIPAA protects your patient information the same way it protects any other medical treatment.

The exception: federal employment screening, firearm licensing, and certain government processes may ask about cannabis use directly. Federal law still classifies marijuana as illegal, so state privacy protections don’t apply.

Miami residents with medical marijuana cards can grow cannabis at home under OMMA regulations. Here’s what you need to follow.

• Licensure requirement: You must have a current OMMA adult patient license (age 18+) or an OMMA-registered caregiver license.
• No additional fees: Cultivation privileges are automatically included with your OMMA patient license—no separate license or payment needed.
• Authorized plant count: You can grow up to 12 cannabis plants total:
  • Flowering stage: Maximum of 6 mature plants producing buds.
  • Growth stage: Maximum of 6 immature plants or seedlings.
• Cultivation site requirements: Plants must be grown on Miami property you own or have written permission to use. Your growing area must be fully enclosed, secured with locks, and not visible from public spaces—indoor grow rooms or locked outdoor structures both work.
• Per-patient allowances: Plant limits apply individually to each licensed patient. Multiple cardholders living together in Miami can each grow their full authorized plant count.
• Caregiver provisions: OMMA-registered caregivers can grow 6 flowering and 6 non-flowering plants for each homebound patient under their care, up to five patients total.
• Personal medical use only: All cannabis must be for your personal medical treatment. Distribution, sale, or transfer is strictly prohibited under Oklahoma law.
• Residential possession limits: You can legally keep up to 8 ounces of harvested cannabis at your Miami residence.

You cannot carry medical marijuana across state lines because cannabis remains illegal at the federal level, even when both states have medical programs. Some states accept out-of-state cards, so you can purchase from dispensaries after you arrive. Before you travel, confirm whether your destination recognizes outside cards, and leave your medicine at home when crossing state borders.
