I gave this MM idea alot of thought because of the unbearable pain that I suffer. I am now A TRUE BELIEVER and I have been seeing Dr. Sterner for two years now and I must say I am totally hooked on his knowledge, credibility and professionalism. I have RA, Trigeminal Neuropathy, Migraines and seizures so the the use of MM has made the pain more bearable and has allowed me to get good night sleep. Dr. Sterner and I talked in depth about my pain and I explained to him the ways in which I consume MM, (ie tea & edibles). I feel he is a true believer in the MM field. I informed Dr. Sterner that I no longer take alot of the pain medication prescribed because of the side effects and the overall way they make me feel. My doses of prescription drugs are high (vicodin, 10mg 4x daily, Amitriptyline 200mg at night, soma, 350mg 2x daily, neurontin, 1000 mg 5x daily). I have reduced these amounts significantly and although I still take them, it is on an "as needed" basis. I have told others about Dr. Sterner and how he addresses "your" issues and "your" concerns. The man has wonderful insight in all areas of treatment. The staff is just as courteous and knowledgeable and that cute little puppy is a doll!!! KUDOS DR. STERNER AND STAFF!

So it took a while for me to decide i wanted to get my MM Card. Becuase of all the commotion this industry is getting i wasn't sure if i wanted to have it on "record" that Medical Marijuana has been the only thing to help my pain. So i did my research and even visit a few other doctors (just so i would be comfortable with my decision) and found that Dr. Sterner was by far the most credible, professional and definitely the most knowledgable. Plus, he's San Diego's original Medical Marijuana Doctor, the other MM Doctors i paid a visit to just didnt' seem to take my matters as serious as Doctor Sterner. Their prices are comparable to other doctors, but even if Dr. Sterner were more expensive, i would have paid the extra price for the peac of mind of knowing he's legit. The receptionist and the Doctors assistant Sissaly were all very knowledgable and extremely helpful and welcoming.I've read a negative review about them before, but i just can't imagine any of that being true. Hey...you'll get treated the way you treat people, that's what it comes down to i guess! :) HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
