California medical marijuana recommendations are valid for one year and can be renewed online. We recommend renewing 7-10 business days before your expiration date to avoid a lapse in coverage.
A renewal consultation with Leafwell costs $35 and you'll only be charged if approved. A physician-issued Leafwell patient ID card can be added for $24.
Here's a summary of the renewal process:
- Sign in to your Leafwell account or register as a renewal patient here.
- Speak to a California-licensed physician online.
- Get approved and download a digital copy of your renewed recommendation letter.
- Purchase cannabis from a licensed medical dispensary. You will receive a hard copy of your recommendation in the mail within 7-10 business days.
