Georgia Doctor Directory

Finding a physician who can certify you for Georgia’s medical cannabis program is harder than it should be. Search results mix card mills, out-of-state clinics, and pages that never mention the rules that exist in Georgia.

If a site promises you a “marijuana card” without that context, walk away. DocMJ’s Georgia doctor directory removes the guesswork. We match you with a certified Georgia physician who submits your certification to the state’s Medical Cannabis Program, and the whole visit happens over telemedicine.

What the Georgia Doctor Directory Covers

Georgia’s medical cannabis program runs through the Georgia Department of Public Health, not through the doctors themselves. Here is the sequence: A licensed physician evaluates you, confirms you have a qualifying condition, and submits a written certification to the state. Only after that step can you register with the Medical Cannabis Program and receive your card. So the directory you actually need is a list of physicians who are both licensed in Georgia and set up to certify patients for this exact program. That is what DocMJ provides.

Meet Your Georgia Physicians

Every DocMJ physician in Georgia is fully licensed in the state and trained to certify patients for the Medical Cannabis Program. You meet your doctor over secure telemedicine from anywhere in Georgia, so the same trusted physicians serve patients in Atlanta, Augusta, Athens, Savannah, Columbus, Marietta, and every other Georgia community.

Ayomide Loye, MD

Dr. Loye is a board-certified emergency medicine physician who practices across the Atlanta metro area. He is licensed in Georgia and brings years of front-line hospital experience to the DocMJ team, which means he understands how real symptoms and real medical histories translate into qualifying conditions. When you meet with Dr. Loye, you get a physician who has seen the full picture, not a checkbox reviewer.

Dr. Elise Zahn, D.O.

Dr. Zahn is a board-certified emergency medicine physician who is also licensed in internal medicine. She holds licenses in Georgia, Florida, Michigan, South Carolina, and Massachusetts, and has spent more than two decades caring for patients. That depth of experience is exactly what you want when a physician evaluates whether low THC oil is right for your condition and your medical history.

Qualifying Conditions for the Medical Cannabis Program

Georgia sets a specific list of conditions by statute, O.C.G.A. 16-12-200. If your diagnosis is not on the list, no physician can certify you, no matter how well-meaning. The conditions include:

Cancer, except skin cancer unless it is metastatic
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
Seizure disorders tied to epilepsy or trauma-related head injuries
Multiple sclerosis
Inflammatory bowel disease, including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis
Mitochondrial disease
Parkinson’s disease
Sickle cell disease
Tourette’s syndrome
Autism spectrum disorder (18 or older, or under 18 with severe autism)
Epidermolysis bullosa
Alzheimer’s disease
HIV, when diagnosed as Stage III
Peripheral neuropathy with severe symptoms
Being in hospice care, inpatient or outpatient
Intractable pain
Post-traumatic stress disorder for patients 18 and older
Lupus

If you are not sure whether your diagnosis qualifies, start with DocMJ’s free pre-qualification. It takes minutes, and a physician reviews your history before you commit to anything.

How Certification Works in Georgia

Step 1. Book a telemedicine evaluation

Pick a time that suits you. DocMJ’s Georgia evaluations happen over secure video, so you do not drive to an office.

Step 2. Meet your certified physician

A DocMJ physician reviews your medical history and confirms your qualifying condition. This is the bona fide patient-physician relationship Georgia law requires before any certification can happen.

Step 3. Get certified to the registry

If you qualify, your physician submits the written certification to the Georgia Department of Public Health. You then pay the state’s $30 registry card fee. The card renews every five years.

Step 4. Receive your card and shop

The state issues your Medical Cannabis Program card, usually within 15 business days. Cardholders can buy medical cannabis from a licensed Georgia dispensary.
