There's competition brewing in the local medical marijuana market.
The Capitol City Compassion Club plans to have a doctor available for patients on June 20, the same day that the Montana Caregivers Network plans to have a medical cannabis caravan camped outside The University Quality Inn in Lansing.
Robin Schneider, the club's president, said that she decided to hold the event when she learned that the Montana group, which is forming a Michigan branch, might only have a doctor available for appointments over the television.
"We think it's ridiculous," she said.
She said that the club will have a doctor ready to look at medical records, assess pain and make recommendations that could gain them entry into the state's medical marijuana program.
Appointments may cost as much as $150, the same potential cost being advertised for appointments arranged with the Montana Caregivers Network.
