Alternative Therapies Group (ATG) (Salem - Medical)

Couple things why easy 5 stars today 1-10-2017. First, Great job managing the MJ Freeway cyber software f$ck up! I was in and out in 15 mins because ATG had a back up plan enabling them to continue to serve its patients. Secondly, They now offer GSC Flower from seed and it's absolute fire! As nice as Neta if not better. Assuming you like girl scout cookies as much as we all do then run to ATG and get some! Thx again ATG Be Well - Matty

I have been coming here for a couple months. Hands down the best bud in the state. Their capsules are amazing, I slept for the first time in years. The staff is very friendly, and the managers fair when I needed to return a couple items. Kate helped me find exactly what works for me, she takes thought in what she recommends. It's a deli setup, which is ok but I wish I could pick who I'd like to go to. Overall, it's a welcoming, sort of hole in the wall place but you'll be damn sure to walk out with a smile.

best products in MA by far. flower is always fresh strain selection is good the decarb oils are bomb so are the cartridges but if i could say something i would like to see more edibles available and in stronger doses

Great flower, really top notch. I've tried almost everything at ATG. The edibles are inconsistent for me, I've tried the chocolates, and tinctures. I usually take around 20my worth, and I've used approx. 40mg of both and get no effect. I've also tried different Brother Jonathan's products, with minor results. I still give ATG Salem 4 stars because the flower is so high quality. Great results with the o.pen vape cartridges also. I always grab some White Rhino flower when I'm there because it's excellent for pain (by far my favorite strain there). Overall, great place/ atmosphere, and smart staff.

Thank you for bringing back the White Rhino. That was the very first strain that I purchased here when Atg first opened for medical. I was wondering for awhile about when that strain would come back. When I bought it yesterday it was very fresh and the buds were beautiful. I missed that strain so much and I'm so thrilled that it's back on the menu.

Not a bad place. Bud was ok, a little larfy but potency wasn't affected. Not a fan of the deli-style setup. Customer service was above average, they were able to answer questions quickly. There are other places I'd prefer to visit, though.

Stopped by and the selection is definitely back up to normal.

Ive been to ATG before the Recreational side opened, ive never once had a problem with the product besides a few prerolls but what can you do. Other than that for medical patients the place is great. The flower is top shelf. And the staffs great, i come by almost everydaay, i love it here so much i wish i worked there LOL. Best Flowers are TutanKahmon, Grand daddy Purp, skywalker kush, Blissful Wizard Gorrilla gglue,and the lemon Hazes (2) they need to get cinderlla 99 back ASAP. Try these nugs then try to talk about ATG.

To date I have conservatively visited approx 70% of the Mass dispensaries and this one ranks dead last in product availability, customer service, and knowledge base. I have had three negative experiences from the confusion at door w Medical patients and the public since opening to rec use. Had a problem w a vape device malfunction and spoke with a manager who was not knowledgeable at all, had no idea what a PAX was, and I felt like I was talking to guido on the street corner buying an 1/8th of dank! I will NEVER visit this location and it would be nice if these organizations remember it’s the med patients who supported their business prior to the recreational openings. This dispensary has a very long way to go.

Fourth review. Censoring reviews for aiding customers in reporting ATG to the Cannabis Control Commission is bad form. After being built by medical patients and then turning them away, how could one trust ATG? After meeting and talking to so many former ATG employees at other dispensaries, it’s clear that ATG does not operate in the best interest of medical patients. I will continue to make it my mission to help medical patients and rec users stay as far away from ATG as possible.

Why do yall stay having the same stuff and quality isnt that good at all

I’m a medical marijuana patient who recently visited this facility and was treated horribly by a female worker. When I was told they didn’t have the 1:1 OVAP cartridges I always purchase to treat my Glaucoma I said to my caregiver standing next to me why are they calling themselves a medical dispensary when they don’t have medication I need for my illness. The female worker at the counter spoke rudely to me and my caregiver. It’s hard to believe all the hard work it took to pass legislation to sell medical marijuana for a facility like this to treat their customers to badly. Signed Discussed not return customer.

They have great weed.

Great services and fast lines.

I used to go to this location all the time when it was strictly medical, and it was just okay. Now you can’t even get in there. There’s very little parking and there’s always people crowding the lot. If you’re medical, don’t bother. Go somewhere else.

I think they have the best weed here.

Plenty of parking, very secure with a security guard in the parking lot. Friendly staff and quick intake process. I haven't tried their flower yet but I will they mostly look like fire. I went because I wanted to try the o pen. I really enjoyed it and look forward to getting new cartridges. I got the captains cake, and also the craft reserve white rhino. I really enjoyed the captains cake but honestly the craft reserve didn't taste that great and didn't think it hit as good even on the high heat settings. Will definitely go back when I'm on the north shore

I've gone here several times, and usually get great customer service. However, I've purchased every type of flower on the menu (several times each), and it seems they are poorly trimming their flowers on purpose. If not, why no change? I've heard customers complaining in house, on here (and others like weedmaps), even on Google! The last two packages I purchased had 50% leaves or more, super dry, hardly any actual flower, little to no medical efficacy. You're probably thinking "why didn't this guy look at the product and the turn it down? They don't even let you look at the product before purchasing!

Amazing experience. I am an adult user and got to park right in the main lot. Police at front doors were very friendly. Atmosphere was nice, very helpful staff... I was in and out in ten minutes. Will be back!

This place had great flower. Great workers there. Very positive and helpful!! Also got $50 off a purchase of $100 or more for first time visitors. Will be going back for sure.

Consistently the best selection, flower is not too dry for the most part, craft reserve o.pen, tinctures are superior. Staff is friendly and they know their stuff. Prices are ok, if you forget to hit the ATM beforehand, they have one onsite. Cash only, perhaps they can change that policy in the new year. Worth the drive. If I was smart I would write a bad review, less customers? MORE FOR ME!! Blissful Wizard, may have been the best I have ever had, Glue, GDP and Cobbler are also all top notch, not much into the edibles, so no opinion on those.

ATG used to have the best flower around... doesn’t seem up to par anymore.. Dry.. smells like hay.. seems to be rushed for the demand.. I would not recommend this to anyone who NEEDS quality medicine... the service and atmosphere is Ok...

Cobbler, GG and Captains cake! Is all I get from ATG. These guys grow right! bud tends to be dry at times. Just make sure you go on a new batch release. The cobbler right now is fresh! Your dumb if you buying flowers from anyone else. Patriot care sucks! lol

Clean, everyone was extremely nice. I had a very positive experience. 😊😊
