Whether you are a resident in DC, or you are passing by and have got a Medical Marijuana Card but don’t really know a good dispensary to go to, you are reading the right article. Herbal Alternatives is a dispensary located in Washington DC in the Dupont Circle area. Their mission is to provide their customers access the best natural medical marijuana, in a place where they feel safe and welcome. They dedicate themselves to the well being of the patients and respecting the rights of individuals and the community.
After you make it inside, you get a glimpse of a welcoming, cozy, and incredibly friendly environment. You will see a long glass display with some of their products, oil syringes, tinctures, hanging in the walls you have pipes, bubblers, cleaning accessories and a staff that is so friendly and welcoming you probably will forget about how insecure you were before walking the door. That’s exactly how manager Jen Brunenkant knows who is coming there for the first-time and who is a regular customer, “when people first get off the elevators, you can almost always tell who is going for the first time, they’re looking at the security doors, looking at the window, and they’re very unsure. When they come in through this door, they feel much better.”
The dispensary has a medical focus, trying to explain to the patients the substances contained in the plant, using a friendly approach to educate patients on the different strains and the effects of marijuana on them, also explaining that different people have different reactions to the terpenes that the plant has. Knowing the best treatment to each individual can be quite the process, and the Herbal Alternatives staff has great knowledge of the medicine.
What surely differentiates them from other dispensary is the attention given to the patients, they talk, they keep up with their progress, they give patients varied options according to their personal preferences and of course, on what would fit best for the patient according to their knowledge on medical marijuana. The personalized care is what makes patients come back to Herbal Alternatives and it is a big motivation for the staff there, which is always looking for their patient’s improvement.
