Medical Marijuana Card Marietta, GA: Online Evaluation With a Georgia-Licensed Doctor
Marietta residents get a 2026 medical marijuana card once a Georgia-licensed physician certifies their qualifying condition in the Georgia DPH Medical Cannabis Patient Registry and they pay DPH the $30 card fee and $3.75 portal fee; the card then arrives by UPS.
From the Square to East Cobb, the physician visit happens by video, and once your card arrives, two licensed dispensaries are already in town. The evaluation is $179, refunded in full if you are not certified.

How to Get a Medical Marijuana Card in Marietta in 3 Steps

Same-day slots available. Full refund if not certified.
What Conditions Qualify for a Medical Marijuana Card in Marietta?
Marietta patients qualify under the same 18 conditions Georgia DPH listed as of July 1, 2026. A few include an age or severity rule, noted in parentheses.
Who Gets a Medical Marijuana Card in Marietta?
Marietta is Cobb County's seat and home to one of the region's busiest hospitals. The page is written with three Marietta groups in mind.
What to Bring and How Long It Takes in Marietta
Most Marietta patients have a card in hand a few weeks after the video visit, and with two dispensaries nearby, the first purchase can happen soon after.
ID With Your Current Address
A Marietta mailing address often covers homes outside city limits in East Cobb, and that is fine. DPH needs your Georgia license or state ID to match where you live, or a utility bill, phone bill, medical bill, or pay stub that shows your street address.
Kennestone and Specialist Records
Visit notes, imaging, and labs from Wellstar Kennestone or your specialist give Dr. Miller the evidence he needs. Add a list of every medication, since cannabis can change how some prescriptions are processed.
Timeline from booking to card in hand
| Step | Who Handles It | Typical Timing |
|---|---|---|
| Video evaluation with Dr. Miller | You and Georgia MMJ Cards | Often same day |
| Certification entered in the DPH registry | Your physician | Same day as the visit |
| DPH checks your documents | Georgia DPH | Depends on how complete your file is |
| Payment email arrives | Georgia DPH | You have 60 days to pay $33.75 |
| Card shipped by UPS | Georgia DPH | Up to 10 business days after payment, signature required |
Once the card arrives, bring it and a photo ID to your first dispensary visit, since stores verify your registration before selling.
Can Your Marietta Doctor Certify You? Wellstar Kennestone, Cobb Practices, and the VA
Marietta's medical community centers on Wellstar Kennestone and the practices around it. Here is what each can and cannot do for your card.
Wellstar Kennestone
Any physician fully licensed in Georgia with a principal practice in the state may certify, and there is no separate cannabis license. Kennestone physicians usually do not, but they can release the records that make an outside evaluation straightforward.
Cobb Primary Care
Your doctor near the Square or on Roswell Road does not need to approve or refer you. If they decline to certify, you can still share their records with Dr. Miller.
Atlanta VA Providers
VHA Directive 1315 prevents VA providers from completing state cannabis forms, and says registering will not cost you VA care. Pull your records from the VA portal before booking.
After You Register
Let your Kennestone specialists and primary care doctor know. Cannabis can interact with some blood thinners, seizure medications, and Parkinson's drugs, so your chart should show it.
Your Marietta Medical Marijuana Doctor: Named, Licensed, and Verifiable
Georgia allows only physicians fully licensed in the state, with a principal practice here, to certify Marietta patients, and the decision is clinical. Dr. Miller's NPI and Georgia license are below so you can verify both.
Dr. Miller reviews Marietta patients against the 18 DPH conditions, often working from Wellstar Kennestone or VA records. He goes over the diagnosis, past treatment, and current prescriptions, and gives you his answer on the call.
Qualifying patients are certified the same day and can shop at a Marietta dispensary once the card arrives. Patients who do not qualify hear why and receive a refund. Read Dr. Miller's full profile.
Book With Dr. MillerHow Much Does a Medical Marijuana Card Cost in Marietta?
Marietta patients pay two parties for two different things. The $179 covers Dr. Miller's evaluation, and the DPH card fee covers the card itself after certification.
- Georgia-Licensed Physician
- Same-Day Evaluation Available
- Registry Entry Same Day If Certified
- HIPAA-Compliant Telehealth
- Full Refund If Not Certified
- Same Georgia-Licensed Physician
- Video Evaluation From Home
- Updated Registry Certification
- HIPAA-Compliant Process
- Full Refund If Not Certified
The DPH card fee is paid by you to the state, and insurance will not cover it. Georgia MMJ Cards never touches that payment.

Not Certified? You Get Your $179 Back.
If Dr. Miller determines you do not meet Georgia's criteria, the full $179 is refunded to your original payment method. Contact us within 14 days of the evaluation; no credit, no partial refund.
DPH's $33.75 is only requested after certification and is paid to the state, so it is never at risk.
Be cautious of any Marietta service guaranteeing approval. Georgia leaves the decision to the physician, so the honest promise is a refund.

Before You Apply: Aerospace Jobs, Kennesaw Mountain, and the Square
In Marietta, federal work and federal land come up more than in most suburbs. Check these before you apply.
Lockheed Martin and Contractors
Defense contractors follow federal drug-free workplace rules, and cannabis use can affect a security clearance. A Georgia card does not change a contractor's drug policy.
Dobbins Air Reserve Base
Reservists, active-duty members, and federal civilians at Dobbins fall under military or federal rules, and the base itself is federal property. Most people in those roles should not apply.
Kennesaw Mountain Trails
Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park is National Park Service land, where federal law applies. Leave medical cannabis at home before a hike.
Marietta Square Events
SB 220 restricts using medical cannabis in public places, so the Square, its farmers market, and outdoor concerts are off-limits for use.
Serving Every Marietta Neighborhood and Cobb County
From the Square to East Cobb, the physician, process, and $179 price are the same for Marietta and the surrounding county.
