After a delay in its anticipated launch, a medical marijuana dispensary will open its doors in downtown Bethesda this upcoming weekend.

The Health for Life Dispensary Bethesda, located at 4909 Fairmont Avenue, will be equipped to serve hundreds of patients per day, according to the company’s website.

The store’s manager, Mike Troung, declined an on-camera interview but stated over the phone that staff are excited to be in the area.

    I am 62 and have been consuming cannabis off and on for over 44 years. I am a husband, father, electronics engineer, successful business owner, musician, community volunteer and marathon runner. I never use alcoholic beverages or tobacco products. My health is excellent, and my memory is intact. I vaporize cannabis, no smoke, no smell, no problems. I finished my third marathon at Big Sur Marathon April 2017, first place in my division with a finish time of 3 hours, 25 minutes and 8 seconds. I’m just one of millions of health conscious Americans seeking the healthiest pathways forward in all aspects of my life. How long before the federal government quits lying to us and admits that cannabis is far safer than alcoholic beverages or tobacco?

    The madness is over! Legalize, regulate and tax recreational cannabis!
