Great Experience! Times for Doctor visit was convenient and had a wide range suitable to my schedule. Doctor visit was short and to the point. I opted for the extra fee to do the state's application and was impressed by how fast they were able to get my application submitted. Thanks for your service. 
First-time user. Much easier than the previous company used... Doing it all online and FaceTime is so much more convenient... Not to mention about half the price of the previous company. I highly recommend this company... if they could walk me through it, just about anyone can use this site.

Can I update my photo, name, address or other details when I renew my Virginia medical marijuana card?
Yes, you can absolutely update your photo, name, address, and other personal details when you renew your Virginia medical marijuana card. Richmond patients should update any changed information during renewal so your new certification has the correct details on file.
- Update your legal name if you got married, divorced, or changed it legally since your last card. Just tell your doctor the new name during your renewal appointment and it gets recorded on your fresh certification.
- Change your address if you moved anywhere in Richmond or to a different Virginia city. Your current address needs to match what’s on your certification so dispensaries and state records stay accurate.
- Submit a new photo during your online renewal so your card shows how you look now. Most providers let you upload an updated photo right during the application, which is way easier than trying to change it later.
- Fix your phone number or email if either changed since your original card. Keeping this current means you’ll get renewal reminders, approval notifications, and important updates without missing anything.

Richmond Marijuana Card Renewal Benefits

Virginia law also stops Richmond employers from firing you just for having your card and using off the clock.
