Med Cannabis Care is a medical marijuana certification clinic in Tallahassee, run by Dr. Shokat. The office is at 1931 Welby Way, Suite 4, Tallahassee, Florida 32308. It certifies patients for the state program rather than selling cannabis. The practice sits inside the Southern Interventional Pain Center.

Dr. Shokat is board certified in pain medicine and in physical medicine and rehabilitation. He trained through a residency at Emory University Hospital and a fellowship at the University of Florida. A former U.S. Army Reserves combat medic, he has treated patients across north Florida and south Georgia for nine years.

Florida requires a qualifying condition and a physician’s certification before a patient registers for a medical card.

The first visit runs $275 and covers evaluation, state registration, and 210 days of certification; follow-ups are $145. Veterans and active-duty members receive 10% off, and the office takes cash only.

Welby Way runs off Capital Medical Boulevard, near Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare in the city’s medical district. Visits are by appointment, with a free phone consultation beforehand. A second Med Cannabis Care office operates in Lake City.
