Dr Peggy Ching Lake Worth VS Releaf Medical

Medical Marijuana Clinic Comparison

Dr Peggy Ching Lake Worth, Florida is one of the original pioneers for marijuana doctors operating in the state and has a long track record of providing recommendations for marijuana cards to patients. Peggy Ching MD is a GREAT physician and is well liked in the industry, but her marijuana clinic practice has recently suffered some setbacks. Dr Peggy Ching Florida is a one person operation that has limited availability to patients. Due to this operating model the most common complaints the staff at Releaf Medical hears about Dr Peggy Ching are inconsistent operating hours in regards to patient support, limited schedule availability, the high cost of patient evaluations, no credit card accepted, and difficulty locating Dr Ching online.

Due to Dr Peggy Ching being one of the first to market in Palm Beach County many early patients to the program have either heard of her or have been evaluated by her. Dr Peggy Ching Florida is overall well liked by her patients but patients have numerous options of marijuana clinics to choose from these days. The pricing for new patients and renewals is exactly the same at Dr Ching’s marijuana clinic and doesn’t include the yearly payment of $75.00 to the state of Florida. Peggy Ching MD charges $300.00 for both new and renewal patients and only accepts cash. The $300.00 paid is for a 1-year time period, which is confusing because recommendations to purchase medical marijuana are only for 7 months max per the state of Florida guideline. It is standard practice that patients are charged for 7 month recommendations at a time at most clinics. Dr Peggy Ching Florida does not send reminder appointments when the 7 months is up so it is up to the patient to remember that even though you have paid for 1 year you will still need to see her again in 7 months. At Releaf Medical we have heard multiple complaints that since she only accepts cash, if for any reason patients are not happy with her service they don’t have any recourse to get a refund. We have also heard from patients that their recommendations have not been entered in a timely fashion or on the rare occasion not entered at all. Due to only accepting cash and having poor internal record keeping it is imperative that patients ask for a receipt because it is the only proof patients will have of payment made. Dr Peggy Ching is a one person operation which she explains as a benefit but in fact this is a red flag. Peggy Ching MD does not have a website or a way to see her reviews on google. Since she doesn’t have a website, patients cannot book an appointment online or read about her services. The phone number that she provides patients is her cell phone so when trying to contact her, patients have expressed that she can be very difficult to get in touch with especially during business hours when she is seeing patients. Dr Peggy Ching Lake Worth location only offers appointments 1-2 days a week and her availability is limited to when most patients would be working. Dr Peggy Ching Lake Worth limited availability is due to her also being a part time stand up comic. We have had multiple patients say that the hours she initially explains to them as being available is not consistent due to her other obligations. Her stand up comic schedule can cause her to not show up at her stated available appointment time. Another drawback of being a one person operation is the medical marijuana program is constantly changing. Since Dr Peggy Ching is handling all aspects of her business along with her stand up comic schedule it limits her ability to be completely up to date with the changes. Dr Peggy Ching explains that she does not provide patients with super high milligrams (ability to purchase products at dispensaries) to start but patients can call to have their milligrams adjusted. This can prevent patients from purchasing products at dispensaries and can result in them being denied from purchasing especially if they are not able to get ahold of her to increase their available milligrams

At Releaf Medical we have had numerous patients transfer to us once they research what Dr Peggy Ching Lake Worth charges and also because of the superior service we provide. We have multiple doctors at Releaf Medical along with multiple admin who always answer the phone during business hours and know all aspects of the medical marijuana program in Florida. We believe the cost of Dr Peggy Ching, only accepting cash payments, charging the same amount for new and renewal patients, limited scheduling availability, not having a website, and not being consistently available is not fair to patients. At Releaf Medical we offer the most competitive pricing for a medical marijuana card, a cheaper price for renewal patients, accept all forms of payment, only charge for the 7 months that the state allows the recommendations to last for, and provide patients with the maximum amount of milligrams the state allows. Our marijuana clinic is open and offers patient evaluations 6 days a week, we always answer the phone to assist patients, we remind our patients when it is time to renew their recommendations, and are well versed on all aspects of the medical marijuana program.
