Our best understanding is that the cannabis certification extension granted due to COVID-19 will expire on June 15, 2020. Call us soon to recertify. We are doing telemedicine and after-hours appointments for those who need them.

The Arkansas Medical Marijuana Amendment of 2016 allowed patients for the first time to have this alternative medicine and treatment option for some of our more challenging conditions. At the Murphy Clinic we believe in promoting the responsible use of this "old-but-new" treatment and in providing personal, over-the-top and compassionate service to every patient.

Unlike some other certification clinics, our focus is on medicine rather than business and opportunism. We operate a complete clinic whose only expertise is in medical cannabis certification and we have a firm and longstanding presence in the local medical community. We carefully review medical records and conduct an individual face-to-face interview with each patient, with the aim of being certain that each is medically and legally qualified for the benefits of cannabis.
