Alternative Therapies Group (ATG) (Salem - Medical)

It was a very sterile atmosphere inside. White walls. Fluorescent lights. A bit of waiting. The lady tried to help me understand why she wouldn't be able to sell me ten ounces. I was breaking the bank for one. Parking lot atmosphere was comfortable

I like their oPen cartridges a lot. I've tried Jack the Ripper, Headband, and Gorilla Glue and liked them all as capes. I also got some Gorilla Glue flower and thought that it was of very high quality. Nice people there too.

I had my appointment the last of the day... They made a large group of people wait outside basically on the street where everyone can see you until your appointment time then they let you in one by one which takes 20 min. After this there's a 15 min video and orientation that describes everything and the product that they offer... Finally they hit us with oh ya we only have one strain left And BTW this is it for a while maybe like another month because there's no lab to test out our product before we can sell it ... 47 for an 8 not bad just didn't want a hybrid strain.

I think that this is the best place currently open legally to buy fresh flower. I have not tried any of the oils but the flowers are flushed right and burn good. They all taste especially great out of a volcano vaporizer. The only complaint that I would make is that sometimes they are a little on the dry side because of the containers that they use. I always empty mine into glass jars with Boveda 62 humidity packs as soon as I get home and everything seems normal by the next day. I can't wait until they get the Gorilla Glue back in stock! That is truly a great strain for me but the rest are all equally worth having in your cabinet as well. For now you will have to look elsewhere for edibles, but don't waste money elsewhere on poorly flushed flower like I did. Go to Salem, you will taste the difference.

ATG is where I go as a regular medical marijuana patient and they are super helpful and educated on what they offer. I have been able to find a variety of strains that help with my anxiety and racing thoughts in order to get better rest and relaxation. They are also beginning to sell glassware, edibles, and topicals in the near future. Convenient location for North Shore and Boston-based patients.

They may not have as much as the Brookline dispensary but they have hands down the BEST vape cartridges. Nobody has come close. It's CO2 extracted and is so healthy and clean. Telling you. And they are getting more stuff everyday. I'm loyal to ATG now

I enjoy visiting Salems dispensery. Always look forward to seeing the friendly staff from the security to the counter. I learn something new every time i go which is a few times a month. The concentrates are my focus when visiting. Always a few great strains to choose from. Always something there for you. The delivery side is failing, 2 sites I've used are already shut down. I highly recommend taking the trip to Salem, also a great town to visit.

Great staff, nice facility. Low inventory since they opened up recreational.

Excellent shop that is quick and efficient

I’m a recreational smoker. I’ll put it this way: i wouldn’t buy this quality bud on the street at these prices. Not they’re fault taxachusetts is ridiculous. Besides the point, I’ve been here 3 times and for all 3 times the quality of bud has been the same and great quality. I’ve seen better but the first time i got a bag here i was very impressed. I’m shocked people rated the quality bad and I’ve been an avid smoker for 10 years now. Bud is amazing here it’s worth to treat yourself once in a while if you can afford it because if you are like me, you’ll be spending hundreds of dollars a week to keep up with tolerance. Nugs are strong smelling and dense. If i could post a picture i would. Everyone is very nice there. Line can get crazy during peak hours. I suggest Monday morning i was in and out today. The menus can be confusing they might not have what they post or have stuff that isn’t posted although it’s become a lot better, not exact yet but you can tell they are putting effort to improving.

Good flower. Extra tax because of the city.

First time there and found the sales people friendly but after leaving found the two cartridges had large air bubbles causing no vape or smoke. Sales didn't inform that cartridges should be stored UPRIGHT after user. Also if bubble occurs, you can remove by 'burping'. They made good and replaced carts. They state it's a new product and want to hear all comments about them. I am a new medical user and they need to provide more info to us rather than just selling.

5 Star, Great Staff, couldn't ask for better service.

Pros: They serve their purpose...when they're not running out of product, which is most of the time. And they're right in my home town. I like the appointment format. I rarely wait outside more than 15-30 minutes tops Cons: always running out of product (currently out of flower and went back to only serving medical until further notice). Staff is mixed - some are great. Others are - meh. Taxes not included in the price. You have to buy the batteries separately from the vape cartridges (an additional $20). I've started driving an hour and a half out of my way to Leicester for better service, product and prices.

I was one of their first patients, and the flower was awesome.. After a while their flower turned to crap. I stopped going. I decided recently to go give them another try, mainly because they now cary the UKU carts. I decided to give the flower another shot and was amazed. Everything tasted as it should, not all the same flat nasty taste. The terps we're all there and that's what it's all about folks, the terps not the THC. And thanks for treating us medical patients like we should be treated, unlike other dispensaries who have recently turned rec. I went on Saturday the past two weeks and waited zero minutes. Keep up the good work

Wow, virtually no waiting...any waiting was to decide which of the many strains to choose and how much to purchase (no limits, yeah). The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, caring and the product quality was outstanding! Looking forward to my next visit. Thanks for the great experience ATG...keep on setting the bar!

I bought an eighth of 5 different strains last week. I thought every one of them was excellent! Amnesia haze is crazy strong - i only use that one when I am not going anywhere. Dakini kush is really nice, pineapple express. You can't go wrong with this dispensary.

buds and co2 oil are A+ wish they had buds on display and some edibles would be nice but still happy with everything i have purchased from them.

Not enough concentrates

I love this place. It is so quick and easy, even when it's super busy, the longest I've ever waited is 20 mins. The oils are amazing, hands down the best. The flower, yes we get sick of the same ones for too long, but it is what it is. The staff is excellent, the security is friendly and makes you feel safe. I've been a bunch of times but mostly am helped by Ben or Kate. They are so friendly, funny, and informative and never make me feel anything but welcome. They have answered all of my questions and are just great down to earth people. It seems they all are. Anyway, I would go for sure!!

The product is fantastic. They have a limit on the amount of flower you can buy per visit, but you will not have to worry about quality - it's been very, very good everytime. I had never used the cartridges before (they didn't have flowers my first visit so I grabbed some) and they are excellent - very easy to use, portable, discreet... overall they are awesome. The only negative right now is the one location and limited amount you can purchase but that will get better over time. They're doing as good as they can considering the state laws/procedures they have to abide by right now. The process IS safe and relatively easy... never had any problems. For first visit plan on being there 1-1.5 hours... after that it is quicker.

A little bit too clinical, but the proof is in the amazing product. I purchased Blue, Girl Scout Glue, and White Rhino. Each strain was unique, frosty as eff, and beautiful.

well-run operation. friendly staff, never a very long wait even when it's really busy. sometimes a smaller selection, but overall the quality of the product here is a cut above. The Gorilla Glue is a real A+.

First time there. Impressed by the look of the place and the quality of the experience. The people were very friendly and knowledgable.
