Registration & Ordering of Cannabis
To become a patient of WeedMD, you must complete one of the following 2 options:
Option 1: Complete and submit two forms; a Registration Application and a Medical Document. The Registration Application must be completed by you and the Medical Document by your Healthcare Practitioner. The online Registration Application form can be filled out here or you can download a copy here. You can download the Medical Document here. We accept all Licensed Producer’s Medical Document forms when they are completed by a Healthcare Practitioner.
Option 2: Complete and submit two forms; a Registration Application and a Registration Certificate issued by the Minister under Part 2. The online Registration Form can be filled out here or you can download a copy here.
Once both the Registration Application and Medical Document/Registration Certificate are complete, your doctor can send them to us via secure, toll-free fax at 1-844-WEEDMD-7 (1-844-933-3637) or they can be mailed to our offices at 250 Elm Street Aylmer, ON. N5H 2M8 for processing. The medical document must be an original, accepted by mail or by secured fax portal from your medical practitioner only. Once you have successfully registered with WeedMD, we will send you a confirmation email so that you may place your first order.
If you need any assistance at any point throughout the application process, feel free to reach out to us by toll-free phone at 1-844-WEEDMD-6 (1-844-933-3636) or email us at orders@weedmd.com.
WeedMD offers secure online shopping here, or by phone. We accept, from our registered patients, payment in the form of: Visa, Mastercard, and e-transfers.
Once we have received your necessary documents, and provided that no additional information is required, your registration may be approved in as little as 1-3 business days.
As per Health Canada’s regulations, you may order up to a 30-day supply with no more than 150 grams per order. Registered patients may order as many times as they like without exceeding their 30-day limit.
For example, if your doctor authorizes 2 grams/day on your medical document, then your 30 day limit would be 60 grams (2 grams x 30 days). Registered patients may order the entire amount, or split it into separate, smaller orders throughout the 30 days. Patients with prescriptions greater than 5 grams per day will need to order multiple times within the 30-days due to the 150 gram maximum per shipment.
