Very apprehensive about trying marijuana for relief. After reviews of the closest dispensaries near me, this one so far seems to be the best. I'm not a marijuana user, tried once (street marijuana) when I was young, ( I think 15 or 16) and didn't like it. The experience was enough to make me never want to do it again! But I'm at the point now I think this is my last and only option left. I have had many surgeries, facing more, multiple conditions, each require medication (pills) weather pain relief or management of diagnosis and the pills are affecting my stomach now! A stomach bleed a few months ago and a hospital stay of 6 days,,,, cause: medication! So their choice of correcting that was yet ANOTHER PILL!!!! I asked at that time that maybe med marijuana should be given at least a thought!? Nope,,,,, more drugs!!!!! Since then, RA has gotten soooo much worse (look like a "freak in every joint" and now diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis! Enough is enough I said,,,, I'm done!!! Obviously your DRUGS aren't the answer! They don't work and I'm always sick to my stomach and,,,when is the next bleed coming that may be to bad you won't be able to fix me! Then I'll be "dubbed" a "pill poppin junky!, caused by DOCTORS!!!" I said to the Doc,,, "you'd get your lilttle pad out if it were your sister, mom or daughter!!!! Well I'm someone's mom, sister and daughter,,, Keep your drugs,,, your not fit to be my doctor anymore!" Soooo done, I'd rather suffer without the pain meds if I'm going to constantly be sick and worried each time I take a pill! So, I guess it's time to really entertain the idea of med marijuana☹️ Having said all that,,,, this dispensary after my search on the different strains of med marijuana and the way the business is ran (from reviews I've read) seems to be the best choice! I'm not looking for a street corner drug high! Believe me I can get that now with the pills I have. Oxycontin 20mg long release to be used at night,,, oxicontin 10 mg used for day time long release, and oxycodone 10 one to two tablets each dose for break through pain day or night! I can get my high easily enough and cheaper than marijuana (because insurance pays for these drugs, except for my 20.00 co-pay) so, don't want med marijuana for the sake of being able to do weed and get high!!!! I just want to start healing my stomach and possibly get some friggen relief and some quality of life!!!!! I've spoken to staff on ph three times already and each time they've been pleasant and helpful. Sooooo, I'll be visiting their shop soon. I'll keep my reviews up as my journey begins and continues! Sorry this is so long,,, but as I said it's been a long journey so far even getting to this point to try it! I'm sure I'm not the only "scary cat " out there! So hopefully my experience will help the next! 😉

Love

Love this spot. The hybrid vape is better and cheaper than the "Sativa" blend they also sell. Good price (for now) so they are my go to dispensary. The staff is top notch! Awesome hours and discreet location.

Very good dispensary.

Very nice place to do business with - a pharmacist on-staff checks for drug interactions, the staff is knowledgeable about the product, the store is neat, clean, and spacious, and it's located in a "nice" area, near Stuyvesant Plaza. They're open five days out of the week, the best of any dispensary in Albany. Best of all, they have five different products instead of the usual three; I'm currently trying out a 2:1 THC:CBD "intermediate" product. Pretty much the only downside is that their products only come in two forms: Tincture oil and vapes. No sprays and no capsules. Would recommend without hesitation.

Look no further.....

Friendly, professional, knowledgeable and convenient. Look no further this place is top notch. It is evident from the moment you walk in that the staff of women really care about their patients. The place is immaculate and I love the modern funky yet professional atmosphere. I am extremely satisfied with this business and feel well cared for.

This place has the best EXCIPIENT FREE VAPES!

#the employees don't kno a hole lot about what they sell... but the scientist that makes the vape oil deff does their job right! if you have any questions ask Google for an honest answer b4 you go in. BUT THAT GOES FOR EVERY UPSTATE DISPENSARY!

New Patient

Being totally new to not only my the purchase of MM , but the Process. When I walked into the door (Clearly uneducated About the process) I mean with getting an actual card and how to speak with the pharmacist. Everyone was so welcoming! Then once I had printed and registered all the necessary info, the next day I was ready to go! So 12:30 I arrived with al my questions ,Paperwork and left with my Tincture and vape..The pharmacist came over while I explained the condition I was seeking help with and BAM. I was on my way ! To be honest looking at other reviews And I’m not sure I want to go any where else 😬

Amazing first time experience

Doctor was knowledgeable as to what would help my specific disabilities. He was kind and clear as to what his expectations were for my medicine use. The vape tastes amazing compared to ones I tried recreationally. The staff member I worked with helped me get a military discount as well as ensure I was being treated properly by my mmp card prescribing doctor ! Definitely recommend them with all 5 stars

Medical Marijuana Prescriber - Review

The professionals and staff at PharmaCannis are second to none. Always willing to take the time to explain their high quality and varied inventory of medical marijuana products, my patients have yet to return to my practice without having a fine tuned customized regimen to sooth their ailments in addition to a great experience. As a provider, I have had the pleasure on many occasions to speak one-on-one with the professionals at PharmaCannis, even during non-work hours on a Sunday. Their knowledge base, customer service, quality/variety of products and level of genuine care for my patients has me not only recommending but directing all certified individuals to their locale on Executive Park Drive in Albany.

Quality in both professional and product

They were kind, informative, clean and most of all professional as to the benefits suiting my medical needs.

selahzzzAlbany, NY

Good price, great service

I was able to place my order by phone. Someone picked up right away and was very helpful. When I arrived to pick up, after a minimal wait, the pharmacist took the time to sit down with me to explain a shift in my prescription. The cost was much more reasonable than the other local dispensary, especially with disability and bulk discounts. The quality of the product is better.

Great!

I love this place. Staff is very knowledgeable and helped me pick the right things specifically for me. It isss kinda pricey but worth it for how much this helps me function. I recommend the pills because they last that much longer for relief. They are also good about giving you refill whenever you need no questions asked the place is so clean! Definitely glad I have in near me!

Great place

I’ve been to other dispensaries in the Albany Area this one is the best hands down the price the people made me feel like a person. They may not have everything out there but there still top notch!!!
