Surterra Wellness at 15 Southwest 1st Avenue in Gainesville, Florida, operates as a Florida-licensed Medical Marijuana Treatment Center (MMTC) at the corner of SE 1st Avenue and SW 1st Street in the 32601 zip code — downtown Gainesville’s only walkable-distance MMTC, positioned a short walk from the University of Florida campus, the heart of Downtown Gainesville, and The Hippodrome Theatre, Gainesville’s historic performing arts anchor. The SW 1st Avenue address places Surterra within the densely urban downtown core where foot traffic from UF students, faculty, young professionals, and arts district visitors converges — distinguishing it sharply from the medical corridor dispensaries on Archer Road and the southwest commercial strip on SW 34th Street. Established as part of the Surterra Wellness MMTC network since 2015 and serving patients from across Gainesville, Alachua County, and the surrounding communities as far south as Ocala, the downtown location carries the full greenhouse-grown Surterra product lineup — flower, edibles, tinctures, concentrates, vapes, and topicals — produced without harmful chemicals and lab-tested, with credit cards accepted alongside debit and an on-site ATM, a meaningful convenience in a high-walkability downtown environment where cash-only policies impose friction. The dispensary holds a 4.6★ Google rating and operates seven days a week, Monday through Saturday at 9:00 AM through 8:30 PM and Sunday 11:00 AM through 6:00 PM.

Does Surterra Wellness Gainesville require a Florida medical marijuana card? Yes — Surterra Wellness operates as a Florida MMTC under OMMU licensing, and a valid Florida Medical Marijuana Card is required for all purchases.

Does Surterra Wellness Gainesville accept out-of-state medical marijuana cards? No — Florida’s MMTC program does not provide reciprocity for out-of-state medical cards.
