Multi-State Telehealth Evaluation Practice
Dr. Okonkwo conducts medical marijuana telehealth evaluations under each of his active state medical licenses. Through MMJ.com he sees patients in twelve MMJ.com service states: Arizona, Connecticut, Iowa, Louisiana, Maryland, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia. Each evaluation is performed under the license number applicable to that patient's state of residence.
His clinical background is in Neurology, a field that overlaps with several conditions many state programs recognize for medical cannabis, including epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and chronic neuropathic pain. Texas operates the low-THC Compassionate Use Program (up to 1% THC by weight), a narrower framework than most other state programs, and Dr. Okonkwo conducts evaluations in each state consistent with that state's requirements.
For patients outside Dr. Okonkwo's licensed states, MMJ.com routes the evaluation to a different physician on the roster who holds an active license in the patient's state of residence.
