Maybe, if you don’t know, you probably do. If so, you need it prior to your visit. We can help.
Yes we do. We use telemedicine via the MGB patient gateway.
The fee for a medical marijuana certification is $0.00. Your copay is the only cost of your visit.
Yes, we accept Medicare, most major private insurance plans:
Your insurance covers the medical decision making necessary to manage the medical condition presented. It is the choice to use medicine or not that your insurance pays for. The alternative may include many recommendations that are not specifically covered by your insurance plan including exercise, more fruits and vegetables, fresh air, and, lastly, recommending cannabis.

To get a medical marijuana card in Massachusetts, you must be certified by a licensed healthcare
provider. At ECS Wellness, our physicians evaluate your medical history, determine if you
qualify, and guide you through the registration process with the Massachusetts Cannabis Control
Commission. Once certified, you’ll receive an email to complete your registration and access
your card through the state’s Medical Use of Marijuana Online System.
Massachusetts law allows certification for conditions such as chronic pain, anxiety, PTSD,
cancer, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, and other debilitating illnesses. At ECS Wellness, we take a
personalized, whole-body approach—considering how your symptoms relate to the
endocannabinoid system and whether medical cannabis may help restore balance and improve
quality of life.
No referral is needed. You can book an appointment directly with ECS Wellness. Our certified
physicians offer virtual and in-person consultations to help you determine if medical cannabis is
right for you.
We accept some insurance plans when visits are part of a broader wellness treatment plan.
The state of Massachusetts does not charge for the card itself.
Most patients receive their temporary medical marijuana card via email the same day as their
appointment. The permanent card is available for download after full state registration, typically
within 1–3 business days.
Yes. ECS Wellness offers secure virtual consultations with licensed providers. As long as you are
a Massachusetts resident, you can complete your certification from the comfort of your home.
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a network of receptors in your brain and body that helps
regulate pain, mood, sleep, appetite, and immune response. At ECS Wellness, we use an
integrative approach to support this system through medical cannabis, nutrition, stress reduction,
and lifestyle interventions for optimal health and healing.
When used under medical supervision, cannabis can be a safe and effective treatment for many
conditions. Our team at ECS Wellness ensures that every patient receives evidence-based
guidance tailored to their unique health profile.
Medical cannabis may interact with certain prescriptions. At ECS Wellness, we take a holistic
view of your health and review all current medications to ensure safe and effective treatment.
Some states accept out-of-state medical marijuana cards, but laws vary. Massachusetts does not
currently offer reciprocity.
CBD is one compound found in cannabis and hemp, often used for anxiety, inflammation, and
sleep. Medical marijuana contains both CBD and THC, the psychoactive compound that offers
additional pain relief and therapeutic benefits. ECS Wellness helps patients determine the right
balance for their needs.
Yes. ECS Wellness is an integrative medicine practice. We offer personalized care plans that may
