There should be a lot of happy people around Central Ohio today because they are able to fill their medical marijuana prescriptions at Columbus’s very 1st dispensary.

There was a line of patients wrapped around the corner at Terrasana Cannabis Company. William Kedia, M.D., Terrasana Founder, Chief Medical Officer and Head of Research, said, ““Our goal has always been taking care of people and providing them with a safe, welcoming environment to purchase medical marijuana. Being the first dispensary in Central Ohio gives us an incredible opportunity to serve a large portion of Ohio’s population, and we look forward to connecting with local patients in need.”

Kedia also hopes the introduction of medical marijuana will help the opioid epidemic by allowing Ohioans to choose a “more natural” choice for treatment.
