Our Services in Brandon



Medical Marijuana Evaluations

DocMJ provides medical marijuana evaluations for Brandon patients who want to know whether they may qualify under Florida’s medical cannabis program. During the visit, a licensed physician reviews your condition, symptoms, medical history, and eligibility. The appointment gives you a clear medical review and explains the next step if cannabis treatment is appropriate.



Florida Medical Marijuana Card Certification

When a patient qualifies, a DocMJ physician can enter the required recommendation into the Florida Medical Marijuana Use Registry. This is a key step in applying for a Florida medical marijuana card. Patients receive guidance on what to expect after the visit, including the state application process and next steps for legal access.



Medical Marijuana Renewal Visits

Florida medical marijuana patients need ongoing physician certification to keep their access active. DocMJ provides renewal visits for existing patients who need their continued eligibility reviewed and their recommendation updated when appropriate. Renewal appointments help patients stay current with Florida program requirements and reduce the risk of gaps in access.



Telemedicine Appointments Where Permitted

DocMJ offers telemedicine appointments where Florida law allows them, giving eligible patients a more convenient way to complete certain follow-up visits. These appointments still include physician oversight and compliance with state requirements. Brandon patients can use telemedicine when it applies to their appointment type and medical marijuana certification status.



Mental Health Counseling

DocMJ also provides online mental health counseling for patients seeking support for concerns such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, stress, or difficulty sleeping. This service is separate from the medical marijuana card process, but it reflects DocMJ’s broader commitment to patient care, privacy, and access to professional support.

Why Choose Us

Patients choose DocMJ because the process is physician-led, affordable, and built for people who may be new to medical cannabis. Since 2016, DocMJ has helped patients understand whether medical marijuana may be an appropriate option through professional evaluations and plain-language guidance. Our approach is grounded in compassionate care, medical professionalism, and compliance with state medical marijuana laws. For Brandon patients, that means access to a local evaluation option backed by an established organization focused on safe, legal, and responsible care.

Doctor Ronald Cirillo is the best Medical Marijuana doctor I’ve had since the start of Florida’s legalization of medical marijuana. Yes I went to 2 or 3 other Medical marijuana docs before I found Dr. Cirillo. The others didn’t seem to care about my actual chronic nerve pain. Dr. Cirillo is kind! He helps me live a better life while dealing w/chronic nerve, & back pain.

So patient, helpful, and thorough when explaining the process and walking me through everything. She made the entire experience feel so easy and stress-free. I highly recommend Dr. Esposito and the team to anyone looking for a caring and knowledgeable experience. I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I almost didn’t want to leave! 😂💕
