“At Kaya Life, we take care of real patients with real problems with real medicine.”
-- Dr. Stephanie Johnson
The legalization of medical marijuana and CBD oil has been good news for people of all ages across America who seek a safe and natural treatment for chronic pain, stress, and symptoms of long-term illnesses. From pain management for cancer, MS, and Parkinson’s Disease to stress release for PTSD sufferers, medicinal marijuana has proven to be an effective alternative method when conventional treatments fail or cause unpleasant side effects. The establishment of medical marijuana (MMJ) clinics in Florida has made sound cannabinoid treatment plans more readily available.
Kaya Life Medical Marijuana Clinic in Santa Rosa Beach, FL
Welcome to Kaya Life in Santa Rosa Beach on the Florida Panhandle. Named among one of the “Best Beaches on Earth” for families by Travel & Leisure Magazine, this peaceful community is famous for its turquoise waters, sandy beaches, scenic beauty, artists’ colony, and very low crime rate.
Following the Medical Marijuana Legalization Initiative in November of 2016, the state of Florida authorized the use of marijuana and CBD oil for medicinal purposes. As a leader in the field, Kaya Life was the first medicinal marijuana doctors’ office to open on the Florida Panhandle just weeks after the legalization. Since that time, we live out our mission daily, seeking to improve the quality of life and promote wellness for our patients using medical cannabis treatment methods.

Florida’s Qualifying Conditions for a Medical Marijuana Card
People from up and down the state of Florida are searching the internet for a “medical card doctor near me” looking for a solution to the pain or stress they’re undergoing. There are specific conditions and illnesses that qualify a person for medicinal cannabis use. Our practice offers certification for patients who have one of the following conditions that qualifies them for a referral under Florida laws.
- Chronic Pain
- Cancer
- HIV/AIDS
- Crohn’s Disease
- Glaucoma
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)*
- Multiple sclerosis (MS)
- Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
- Epilepsy
- Parkinson’s Disease
- Medical conditions that are similar to those above*
- Any terminal condition
* For example, PTSD is one of the conditions on the official list. However, bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, or insomnia are all considered “related conditions” to PTSD. On a case-by-case basis, patients with these symptoms may also qualify for a medicinal marijuana card. Read more about these qualifying conditions here, and how cannabinoids are being used to reduce and relieve symptoms of these illnesses.

Medical Marijuana Education and Compassionate Patient Care
