Alternative Therapies Group (ATG) (Salem - Medical)

Quality of the flower was amazing. Well currated, potent, fresh taste. I bought Serious Happiness and am seriously happy with my choice. I was disappointed by the current lack of choice and how I ordered. But firmly believe these to be temporary issues. The people were as fast and friendly as they could be. But it all felt very institutionalized and overcomplicated. It's great they're finally here and I look forward to seeing how this process evolves.

the gorilla glue just few tokes and you are all sett

Not a welcoming place. Metal detector right when you walk in they then make you watch a 5 minute propaganda video that looks like it was produced by the Reagan administration. They are strictly cash only with an ATM that has a $2.50 surcharge conveniently located outside the front door. No debit? It's 2016... Overall there are more welcoming dispensary with a better/larger selection.

Very high quality flower product. Well known flavors. A lot of selection Wish they were not phasing out craft reserve cartridges

the RSO is insane, both in quality and price, lol the quality is very very high, so is the price, 125 per ml is high, but its strong as god damn hell....and the only place that has it around, so props there. The herb has a ways to go, stupid that you cant see it and thc levels are a joke, but i see good things for this place...just need more time....second best dispensary so far...

The bud is very dry. Some strains are still potent, like the gorilla glue, but the bud is overly dry and seems like it was unnaturally done. I would strongly recommend people try the delivery places rather than this place. Very expensive for not good trim, as well as overly dry bud. Very nice staff though! Nice people working there. Wish the bud was more fresh and better trimmed

I came for some pain relief marijuana. They would only sell 3.5 grams at a time. The stuff did nothing and the whole exercise was frustration from top to bottom. They had advertized organic but it was not. I had to sign that it was OK for them to use pesticides and fertilizers that contain heavy metals. UGH UGH

Place was great.. Very helpful people working there... All around a great experience for a first timer

This place is very sanitary and definitely has a sterile, medical vibe going on, which you want when you're buying legal pot. Their bud is good, though it could use more descriptions on their site beyond basic chemistry and genetics, but the real hit is their CO2-derived concentrates. THOSE ARE AMAZING.

First time in, Sunday 10am, no line. Security guard, window gal, and final entry guy all professional, and friendly too. There is a display case to view while you wait for your turn at the counter. My bud rep answered my questions and was able to calculate my total w/tax in her head as I made my selections. Impressive! In and out in 10 minutes flat. So pleased when I got home. Blissful Wizard is incredibly sticky, almost gooey, and amounts I received were as described. Highly recommend :) Thank you ATG!

The groomers aren't the best as the buds aren't manicured to a medical level, esp., when compared to others. Also esp. considering they are more pricey than the others this is unacceptable. Few specials either. The bud is A quality otherwise. Need to have a broader selection as well. Old building, etc. I liked Bob the security guard, he was always friendly and cool.

Update: Strain selection getting better. Craft Reserve gets 5 stars. Buds still somewhat dry, and the trim still needs improvement. Staff great.

This is my first visit to a dispensary since becoming prescribed and it was a great experience. A security guard greets you at the door and confirms your appointment. After giving them your card and proof of identification you used to register, you are led into a room to watch a quick 10 minute video from their Chief Medical Officer talking about differences between indica and sativa and ways to administer the medicine. After that, you take a number like at the deli counter and wait to be called to the counter. There is a limited menu of maybe 4 strains, and they also sell oils. The Ounces are $350 and the ovape cartridges are 60. The Rick Simpson oil which comes in at 75% THC and 25% CBD runs about $125. The whole experience was painless and professional, and the quality of the flower is better than anywhere I've seen. I expect the quality to get better in time, as well as the varieties the offer. I will be back

Been coming here for almost 4 years and I still love it here! Still great flower and friendly staff.

Definitely worth the Drive. The quality of the flower make the price ok. The service and people was great also. Everyone was very friendly and made you feel welcome. I am glad I finally made the trip from Lowell. I will be back in the future

The staff here has been wonderful and very informative during my process of learning about medicinal marijuana and what works best for me.

I have been a patient at ATG since they opened in June and i have to say, every time i come back they have improved something... the offerings, the waiting line, the on-boarding process, atmosphere, etc... always something improved. Even on the rare occasion when their harvest produce B product they make good on it by offering steep discounts. Last week i got Headband and Jack the Ripper for almost 40% off... it didn't look like their normal product but it worked just fine and i saved good money! These guys get it. I will definitely be back for more. Thank you ATG.

Outside does nothing for the inside. Nice, secure, inviting atmosphere inside....a little loud but I can work with that. I was reluctant at first because some of the mixed reviews, but if people actually took the time to READ, they would get all the information they needed from the email confirmations to the website. Scheduling was easy. Follow the easy instructions and you wouldn't show up when they are closed. Just saying. No wait to get in. As a new patient, they answered all my questions. Although the video we had to watch was a little boring. Sorry, calling it like it is. Wish I could see and smell the product before purchasing, but everything is pre-packaged. They said they were working on displays to adjust for this. Looking forward to it. Overall, not a bad visit at all. When I finally did get to see my Gorilla Glue, it was bomb! Thank you guys. I'll be back!

Great variety and staff is very helpful and knowledgeable.

Parking, quick service, deli style isn’t the best setup, security guards can make people feel uncomfortable too. However Everything is ok to deal w besides the prices. Quick comparison to other dispensaries will show you this place is wayyyy to pricey. I’ll be back once they fix this problem.

So today was my first visit to this place, I have been to many other dispensaries and this place was the most unfriendly, unprofessional and rude. I saw online that they had discounts of some sort but when I got there,they told me that there wasn't any. It wasn't what I was expecting in service. People working there make it seem like they are doing a favor by being there, they need to really step up their game and start treating people in a different manner. And of course I would never shop here again.

With all the options available I wasn't sure where to go my first time. After trying ATG first, everywhere I've gone for delivery since has not been nearly as good. The price is slightly more so that some people might be turned off, but I believe the quality is worth it.

Same crap buds for weeks. Lame! Enough said.

I was very satisfied with the service and product at ATG. The entire staff was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. The handbook is so helpful. I love the pages they included to track and monitor different strains. This will definitely help me to learn how different strains affect and reduce symptoms of chronic pain, headaches as well as my depression, anxiety and insomnia. I was very pleased to see they also have a room so patients can speak in private with an employee. Brianna was especially helpful in helping me to determine which method would be beneficial for daytime to treat my depression, anxiety, and chronic spinal pain. The Serious 6 oil is amazing! Immediately felt relief (physically and mentally) that lasts a few hours. And the Granddaddy Purple (flower) is truly an all over body pain relief and put me right to sleep. Gdp could also stand for God damn potent! Thank you ATG for your professionalism and respect! I will gladly continue doing business with them and recommend to others!
