Book Your VA Medical Marijuana Card Doctor in Hampton, Appointments Available Now

To apply for your medical marijuana card, you need a valid photo ID, proof you live in the state, and a physician certification from a registered practitioner. Here’s what you should have ready when you apply.

• A valid photo ID (driver’s license, state ID, passport, or military ID)
• Proof of state residency with your Hampton address (utility bill, bank statement, lease, mortgage paper, or car registration from the last 60 days)
• A Written Certification for the Use of Medical Cannabis from a registered practitioner (we give you this after your appointment)
• $50 for the optional state registration fee (only if you want the state-issued card through the state’s website)

The physician certification is what lets you buy medical cannabis at Hampton dispensaries. You don’t need old medical records for your appointment, and most Hampton patients get their certification the same day they meet with the doctor.

You qualify for a medical marijuana card if you live in the state and a licensed practitioner decides cannabis could support your health needs. Most patients in Hampton meet the basic rules once they speak with a registered doctor and share their symptoms.

• Residency: You must live in the state and show proof with a state ID, driver’s license, or another accepted document.
• Age: You must be 18 or older, and minors can qualify through a parent or legal guardian who applies as their caregiver.
• Qualifying condition: The state does not limit conditions, so any diagnosed issue may qualify if your practitioner believes cannabis could help.
• Evaluation: A state-registered doctor, NP, or PA must review your health concerns and give you a written certification if appropriate.
• Registration: The optional state card is no longer required to shop, since your written certification and photo ID are enough.

You’ll find every form of medical marijuana the state permits at dispensaries throughout Hampton. To purchase any of these products, you need an active medical marijuana certification and a valid photo ID.

• Dry flower: The cannabis plant you can smoke or vaporize, with many strain choices such as the Super Boof strain for different effects.
• Oils: These work in vape cartridges or you can take them by mouth, depending on what the product label says.
• Tinctures: Liquid drops you put under your tongue, and they usually work faster than edibles.
• Capsules: You swallow these like regular pills, which makes dosing simple and steady.
• Edibles: Gummies, baked goods, and candies all count, and they are measured in milligrams on the package.
• Topicals: Lotions, balms, and creams you rub directly on sore muscles or joints for targeted relief.
• Beverages: Drinkable cannabis products like infused beverages or syrups you mix into drinks.

Yes, you can grow marijuana at home. The state allows any adult 21 or older to cultivate at home.

• You can grow up to four plants: That’s the household limit for your home, no matter how many adults live there. Seedlings, clones, and mature plants all count toward the four.
• No permits, no fees, no registration: The state doesn’t make you jump through hoops or pay extra to grow your own medicine at home.
• Plants must stay out of sight: Your cannabis cannot be visible from Mercury Boulevard, any public road, or a neighbor’s property. Keep them secured so no one under 21 can get to them.
• Tag each plant: Attach a tag with your name, state ID number, and a statement that it’s for personal use. It takes two minutes and keeps you compliant.
• Growing is for personal use only: You can gift up to one ounce to another adult, but selling any amount is illegal.
• Check your lease if you rent: Landlords can prohibit cultivation in rental agreements, so read your contract before you start.
• Medical patients follow the same rules: Your MMJ card doesn’t change the plant limits or give you extra privileges. Everyone plays by the same guidelines.

If you’ve thought about growing your own, the state made the rules simple enough that patients can give it a try without worrying about legal trouble.
