Sandy Springs residents follow Georgia's two-step medical cannabis pathway — telehealth visit with a DPH-registered physician, then apply for your Registry Card at the DPH patient portal. From Downtown Sandy Springs and Perimeter Center to Hammond Park and Glenridge, every step happens from home.
Book a real-time video visit with a physician (MD or DO) who is both licensed in Georgia and registered with the Georgia Department of Public Health (DPH) Low THC Oil Registry. The physician reviews your medical history against Georgia's qualifying conditions under Georgia's medical cannabis program, expanded by SB 220 — the Putting Patients First Act — signed May 12, 2026. If you have a qualifying condition, the physician certifies you and enters your information into the DPH registry.
After physician certification, apply for your Registry Card through the Georgia DPH Low THC Oil Registry patient portal and pay the DPH registration fee directly to DPH. Once approved, your 5-year card entitles you to purchase at any AMCC-licensed dispensary or Georgia Board of Pharmacy-licensed independent pharmacy statewide. Georgia's program allows up to 12,000mg of total THC (SB 220). Smoking and botanical cannabis flower remain prohibited under Georgia law.
Whether you're in Downtown Sandy Springs, near Perimeter Center, Hammond Park, Glenridge, or anywhere across Sandy Springs — your DPH-registered physician is a real-time video call away.
Direct answers sourced from DPH and AMCC guidance for Sandy Springs residents navigating Georgia's medical cannabis program.
Sandy Springs is one of Georgia's largest and most economically significant cities — a community of more than 108,000 residents in Fulton County incorporated in 2005, home to the Perimeter Center business district (one of the Southeast's largest suburban office markets), Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Scottish Rite Hospital, and a thriving concentration of technology, healthcare, and professional services employers. Sandy Springs residents access Georgia's medical cannabis program on the same statewide terms as every other Georgia patient: a telehealth visit with a DPH-registered Georgia physician, certification in the DPH registry, and a 5-year Registry Card for purchases at any AMCC-licensed dispensary statewide. SandySpringsMarijuana.clinic connects Sandy Springs residents with DPH-registered Georgia physicians via telehealth.
Governor Kemp signed SB 220 — the Putting Patients First Act — on May 12, 2026, effective July 1, 2026. The law expanded Georgia's program significantly: it replaced "low-THC oil" with "medical cannabis," removed the previous 5% THC cap and established a 12,000mg total THC possession limit, added inflammatory bowel disease and lupus as qualifying conditions, and permits patients 21 and older to vaporize medical cannabis products. The program now covers 19 qualifying conditions. Smoking and botanical cannabis flower remain prohibited under Georgia law. Marijuana remains illegal in Georgia — the program provides a lawful pathway only for registered patients.
Georgia's program requires two steps. First, a physician certification: Sandy Springs patients book a telehealth appointment with a DPH-registered Georgia physician through this platform. The physician evaluates the patient's condition against Georgia's qualifying conditions and, if the patient qualifies, certifies them in the DPH registry. Second, a card application: the patient applies through the Georgia DPH Low THC Oil Registry patient portal, pays the DPH registration fee directly to DPH, and receives a 5-year Registry Card upon approval. The card allows purchases at any AMCC-licensed dispensary or Georgia Board of Pharmacy-licensed independent pharmacy statewide. For complete and current program details visit the AMCC website.
