Every patient is different; some patients may be veteran cannabis users while some patients may have never tried cannabis nor visited a dispensary. For the latter, the prospect of visiting a new dispensary can be intimidating. How do you know what to buy? Is the dispensary staff friendly and knowledgeable? And how does the process of purchasing cannabis from a dispensary work?
