Dear valued community,
We have some thrilling news to share with you all regarding a significant leap in the world of Medical Cannabis in Utah. This change is set to transform the way many patients access Medical Cannabis and allows for more savings to patients seeking alternative care. Patients who see specific providers at KindlyMD are now given the opportunity to receive 1-year Medical Cannabis Card certifications for only $25. This will help those in our community customize their treatment plan to suit their specific requirements, incorporating mental health services, traditional medications, and alternative medicine as needed. This offer is available now in our SLC/Murray location, with plans to expand to our other clinics very soon.
The dawn of a new era — one where you no longer need to empty your wallet for quality care or the renewal of your Medical Card — is upon us! This is thanks to a groundbreaking approach that KindlyMD has implemented, integrating complete, whole-person healthcare visits with a Medical Cannabis recommendation.
For the past three years, many in our community have felt the burden of out-of-pocket payments for visits to obtain Medical Cannabis access in Utah. Luckily, that narrative has changed. Patients can now establish care under their insurance plan for pain, primary care, anxiety, depression, weight loss, therapy, prescription management, and alternative medicine, to name a few.
Select Insurance Plans Accepted at KindlyMD:

Medicare
Once seen, established patients are then eligible to receive a Medical Cannabis certification (if qualified for cannabis use under Utah state law) for just $25.
As the founder of KindlyMD, I have always been at the forefront of the fight for affordable and accessible Medical Cannabis care. It's an honor to say that my vision and relentless efforts thus far have ensured that patients in Utah not only get higher quality care at lower costs, but also enjoy continuity in their treatment. With recent legislative changes, credentialed KindlyMD providers can treat an unlimited number of patients, unhindered by patient caps previously limiting them from doing so. This means consistent, quality care without breaking the bank.
*QMP costs vary for Medical Cannabis evaluations. QMPs may offer or require more frequent renewals at various rates. Please review the cost comparison chart on the Utah Department of Health and Human Services website.
**Annual fee for patients that require Medical Cannabis certification or recertification. This is not due each visit.
The world of Medical Cannabis has been shrouded in misconceptions, with many hesitant to share their use of cannabis with primary care or other providers. Our dual mission with UtahMarijuana.org and KindlyMD remains clear: de-stigmatize alternative medicine for seamless integration in traditional healthcare. This integration is about more than just access; it's about establishing a gold standard of complete care for all patients across our great nation.
The most evident advantage to establishing care with KindlyMD is reduced cost. But, KindlyMD is so much more than that. We dedicate our efforts to the elevation of patient care standards, integrating alternative treatment, prescription medicine, and behavioral health services into comprehensive care plans. KindlyMD commits to patient care, affordable access, and the destruction of barriers to quality healthcare for patients.
The Utah Medical Cannabis space is undergoing a significant upgrade, and this is just the beginning. We at KindlyMD are excited for what the future holds. To all members of our community, this is your chance to experience top-shelf care without top-shelf costs. Embrace the change and let KindlyMD guide the way. Schedule today.
Stay informed, stay healthy, and we'll see you soon!

Over the last three years, my team and I have dedicated ourselves to improving the health and quality of life of thousands of people. Today, it’s clear that our mission has been successful so far, but there’s still a long way to go.
KindlyMD (formerly Utah Therapeutic Health Center) remains focused on helping its patients live healthier, happier, and better lives. We still recommend plant-based treatment options for most of our patients. Remarkably, about 85% of our patients say plant-based medicine has helped them reduce their prescription drug use.
We’ve helped thousands of people manage chronic pain, PTSD, cancer, epilepsy, and other conditions that limit one's quality of life. Although our patient satisfaction rate is very high, we felt we could offer an even better experience.
After evaluating our patients’ needs and some of the challenges surrounding alternative healthcare, we added behavioral health counseling and prescription management to KindlyMD’s line of services.
KindlyMD blends prescription medicine, alternative medicine, and behavioral health services to create unique, personalized healthcare plans for each of our patients. We’re here to help people reduce or eliminate any unnecessary medications, replacing them with natural medicine and therapy, as needed.
Listen First. KindlyMD is the first company to blend traditional medications and behavioral health services into a unified healthcare plan. The success of this integrative approach depends on listening carefully to each patient throughout the entire process. Every interaction we have with a patient is a potential opportunity for us to tailor that person’s healthcare even further.
Integrate. Our patients meet with an “Integration Team” consisting of a prescriber, a behavioral health consultant, and a care coordinator. Our patients enjoy the convenience and efficiency of having a dedicated care team working together, under one roof. We believe this integrated approach is the best way for our patients to achieve a positive outcome.
Track the Data. Our patients and website visitors are invited to participate in surveys, which help us to understand their needs and identify trends within the general population. We believe this survey data is important in solving some of the larger problems in healthcare, such as the overprescribing of potentially dangerous painkillers. We expect our database will be the first and largest of its kind in the United States.
Understand the Need. We recognize there are people in our community with a heightened risk of developing addictions to prescription medications. There are others who are struggling financially and could use some assistance in paying for their healthcare needs. We want to help them, whether through integrated care, providing educational resources, or connecting them with patient subsidy programs.
It's been extremely exciting to be involved in the progression of alternative and plant-based medicine over the last few years. Our company is growing rapidly, and we are thrilled to offer new ways to help you take control of your health.
Welcome to your kind of healthcare,
Tim Pickett, Founder and CEO
