AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Texas Original, Texas’ leading medical cannabis provider, announced its newest prescription pickup location has opened in Waco, Texas. The new location is Waco’s first medical cannabis pickup site and the first drive-thru location in the state. The pickup location is open every Friday between 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. for patients who qualify under the Compassionate Use Program.
Texas Original operates the most robust medical cannabis distribution network in Texas. In addition to its convenient pickup locations open weekly throughout the state, the company also delivers prescriptions directly to patients’ doorsteps on a daily and weekly basis. The Waco opening marks another important milestone in the company’s pursuit of expanding access to life-changing medical cannabis treatment for every Texan. Waco-area patients like Barry Freeman—who uses medical cannabis to treat symptoms of PTSD—now have a convenient option to pick up their prescriptions locally.
“Medical cannabis has helped me sleep better, live without the burden of chronic pain and eliminate pain pills from my treatment,” Freeman said. “Texas Original’s medicine has changed my life and I’m so grateful to have nearby access to their products through the Waco pickup location.”
Registered physicians can prescribe medical cannabis to treat conditions including epilepsy, cancer, PTSD and hundreds of neurodegenerative disorders. Texas Original's medicine alleviates common symptoms—including chronic pain, insomnia and anxiety—associated with such conditions for thousands of patients. Qualifying Waco residents can obtain medical cannabis prescriptions through online clinics or Waco-based physicians registered with the Compassionate Use Registry of Texas.
“Getting your medical cannabis prescription filled should be as easy as picking up any other medicine,” said Morris Denton, CEO of Texas Original. “Swiftly receiving care from the comfort of your car is another significant step toward expanding access for our patients. I encourage Waco residents to ask their doctors about the life-changing benefits of medical cannabis and reach out to us to start experiencing relief as soon as possible.”
Waco patients can continue to access their prescriptions through Texas Original’s delivery network. Today’s announcement also follows the opening of Texas Original’s first permanent medical cannabis pickup location in Houston, which serves the greater Houston area five days a week. Operating times for the company’s permanent Houston Heights location and other local pickup sites can be found on the Texas Original website here.
Texas Original’s suite of gummies, tincture and lozenge products are also available for pickup at the company’s dispensary in Austin, Texas. To learn whether you or a loved one qualifies for medical cannabis, visit www.texasoriginal.com/patients.
