Our goal is to assist patients that qualify in obtaining a medical cannabis registration card allowing the patient to purchase, possess, and use medical cannabis in Florida. Our practice will provide a safe and professional setting where patients can be seen by a compassionate and understanding physician, Dr. Varesh Patel.
We want to ensure that the patient is fully educated about the therapeutic benefits of medical cannabis. I have now been in practice for 14 years in the Orlando area alongside my father with Advance Family Practice. I received my undergraduate education at Florida State University with a Bachelor of Science in Finance.

The first 2 times I met Dr. Patel, he was very pleasant and professional, but today, I saw (or heard) another side of him and I am disgusted. He charges $280 for the initial consultation. Then he directs you to go to the registry website where you have to pay another $75 to register for your card. Then, once registered and given a registration ID, you have to make another “dosing” appointment for another $150. There’s no specific dosing, but his recommendations based on your needs. My personal issue is difficulty sleeping. After a breast cancer diagnosis in 2017, I’ve had a double mastectomy

Avoid this physician! He’s charging patients for ‘dosing appointments.’ The staff will tell you that they are required by state law but they are NOT (they will not tell you about these extra appointments when you schedule your first). The initial visit is $280 which only includes the submission of your application and a 5 minute meeting with Dr. Patel (he seemed to be in a hurry to get me out of the office). Then they will want to see you THREE more times for these dosing appointments - each visit costs $150. Save your money and go somewhere that doesn’t take advantage of people. As soon

I have visited the clinic w a friend. The office staff were courteous, kind and efficient. Dr Patel was very informative and compassionate. He listened to my friends story and assured her that he could help her. My friend felt so much at ease and is excited to feel better once the dosing is tittered.
The process of paperwork was not burdensome but extensive. So what. The state regulates much of this process and trying to navigate the system is frustrating for the patient and the physician. I am confident that Dr Patel is competent in this arena of medicine.

SCAM! They are a scam and did not explain the complete process to me before taking my payment. I thought it was going to be 280 in total but there are three more dosing appointments they dont tell you about until you get in, each 150 each appointment. The DR. is taking advantage of people. Never go to this doctor ever. The doctor was extremely rude and pushy like a marketing sales man as well. I felt extremely uncomfortable and will be taking my business elsewhere. I have never felt more disgusted and ripped off in my life. THE DOCTOR CHEATED ME, DO NOT GO TO THIS DOCTOR.

I have been visiting Dr. VARESH PATEL for over year now. When I started visiting him, I had come out of various eye operations and anxiety ridden situations. I cannot take chemical medication since it messes with my system and medical cannabis seemed like a solution to a variety of problems I was facing. He listened to my problems and suggested some strains to try.
We went through the process to get my card and once I received it, I headed out to get my medical cannabis.
With each visit, we go over my progress with each different strain I try and I’m glad to say I am finally sleeping 6 hrs

I have a condition which has ZERO pharmaceutical remedies and some of the herbal ones help a little bit.... but getting on Medical Cannabis is starting to allow me to get things back in order here. By using the detailed chemical breakdowns of the different strains as well as some research and experimentation I've found what I need to get to sleep as well as to treat my primary condition during the day. For me it's: Load up on inhaled High-CBD and follow it with a high-THC strain. It prevents any anxiety or negative side effects from the THC while giving me more relief than anything I've tried.
