No you don't. You just have to tell the doctor you suffer from anxiety. Or ADHD, or were previously diagnosed with bi-polar disorder. Or any of a number of other things that qualify you for a medical card. The doctor ONLY provides authorization for the medical card. He doesn't treat illnesses. This is how the system in Florida is legislated to work. Basically the doctor collects a fee twice a year and registers you as a medical cannabis patient. He passes some of the fee to the State, and keeps the rest for himself.
