Very welcoming atmosphere. Very professional from the front desk all the way to the best budtender Candice. She definitely knows her cannabis. She took her time to get to know me and my needs. It was like talking to my best friend. Candice ROCKS!!!!!
As far as the first review stating that they were closed when they got there. Well they posted on their Facebook page their holiday hours and that they would be closed Tuesday.
I highly recommend Southern Maryland Relief.

As a mom who was very nervous about taking this step and how to approach it with teenage kids in the house, this location helped in more ways than they will ever know. Making the decision to go this route and try this alternative was not an easy one but when I first walked in, I was relieved. I was greeted by smiles and a helpful reception staff. The registration process when entering was quick and easy (especially if you have the paperwork filled out beforehand, as I did). There was no waiting time and didn’t even have the time to enjoy their beautiful, modern, and warm waiting area. I was almost immediately taken in to meet Candace, who helped immeasurably. She made a very emotional and big step for me, not so overwhelming. She was able to educate me on all of the products and help me with a starting point. I learned so much, and feel more comfortable about my decision in taking this step. I felt educated on what I needed to do to medicate once I got home. After leaving, I felt comfortable having that talk with my kids about the new medication I am trying. I am thank full to Southern Maryland Relief for taking care of me and, I thank Candace so much for the encouraging words and great service, and the great products.

You guys are doing a great job!! I have been in 5 times and everytime the staff was very professional and i never had to wait more than a couple of mins. On my first visit Brittany was my bud tender and she was excellent! Everytime I have been back she has been my go-to person with the exception of my last visit. Of course like everyone I would prefer that the prices be lower and the selection larger but based on what the other dispensaries are offering they are in line with the rest of the state. The quality and selection are improving.

Staff was Superb!
I cannot believe the pricing,how can anyone afford to pay to treat themselves,My treatment requires edibles which 2-4 Oz's per month and if you have made edibles its very costly if your paying $500 or more for per oz to treat Severe Chronic Pain Syndrome,unfortunately I may have to revert back to Opiates which is free,Why don't the dispensaries have pricing per oz on Leafly?,you have to be in the upper class to afford these type of prices,I wish that I would see more Patients complaining about the pricing

From the front desk receptionist to security to service personnel you cannot ask for better.

I love this place. Extremely friendly, inviting and warm. I’ve been going here since it opened. They see me come in frequently and still follow through with all proper procedures. It’s like Cheers- sort of- if they carded you and asked for your documentation every time, lol. They are all wonderful and I can’t say it enough. I wont go anywhere else now:)

I love southern Maryland relief!
They are all professional and very helpful when it comes time to find the right products!
At opening, they had a very bumpy start with limited supplies, and crowded lines.
I believe they opened in November.
The only issue I have, is not with them. It's the fact that the medical cards have an expiration date.
I've never smoked before getting a card.
I had no idea what I was walking into.
But I went for PTSD, and other underlying conditions.
I first strains I used we're pre-rolled.
Lemon head and strawberry banana.
So funny story: I smoked my first joint- lemon head all in one go! Do to some of my more experienced friends saying it takes a few times of smoking before you get the high.
I was desperate for some relief from my smyptoms.
The high hit me like a brick wall.
I was out of it for hours. But the next day I felt amazing. I had no need for any of my regular medication for s day in a half.
Funny note to self: never smoke a joint in one sitting. Lol it was like a broken film reile was getting in my vision.
It actually caused me to have a"whitey"- I think it's what it's called.
After that, it was only 2 hits and wait to see what the effects are. If I need more, I usually just take one hit and break until I feel something.
I adventually got the hang of it.
I had desperately looking for CBD oil. They didn't for a bit.
Then, they got in the stuff made of health gold! Pure CBD oil!!
Unfortunately I couldn't afford it, so I had to wait.
But, a resent diagnosis gave me no choice but to buy it. I'm in the testing phase of my diagnosis. It isn't pretty. It's life long, debilitating, and cruel to it's host.
Lyme disease.
Did I mention extreme pain? That feels like a heart attack? But it could possibly be the lyme effecting it.
I've been in constant pain for a while now. I gave it the, "oh, f*** me! I have to have something to help me until I can get a full diagnoses and start getting treated!!" So, I bought 2 types of oils. ,"The Remedy" 200% cbd oil, and a 50/50 thc & CBD oil mix. The watermelon is great!!
I presented my problems to the guest services, and she quickly jumped into action. Everyone I've worked with does!
She helped get the things I wanted!
In the past I've had the CBD oil in pills. It took about a week to kick in. Well, to feel some improvement.
This is no different.
I'm not feeling much, except for the thc, CBD 50/50 mix. Probably the thc I feel.
Ive read that marijuana can be and anti-inflammatory, and an antibacterial properties in it's make.
Anyways, it looks like my issue won't go away, if it does, it'll destroy my body in the meantime, and leave me damaged if it continues for much longer.
I love this shop! It's easy to get to, the atmosphere is very clean and sterile, and the staff are completely helpful and understanding.
I didn't know I had a chronic illness until after I started smoking.
But now I know, and hope that this will help increase my time, and prevent any more damages from happening to my body.
This place and the staff are awesome!!

Amazing experience! Friendly and knowledgeable staff, very clean and professional atmosphere.

It’s nice to have a safe alternative, but it’s too expensive to enjoy yourself. They say that in time the prices will go down. Let’s hope. But overall, a very nice place and very nice staff.

I had the pleasure of visiting the dispensary last weekend. Candy was my consultant and she is amazing!! She was very knowledgeable about the products and helped me pick the best medicine for my needs. The atmosphere is professional and friendly. I tried some of the different prerolls, and Tangie was my favorite. The prices were reasonable to me. I paid $20 for two prerolls, which is what I’m used to. It was so much fun to go there and be able to legally purchase my meds. I have already decided that this is going to be my “Home” dispensary. I live in SOMD, and I’m so happy that we have a quality dispensary in the area!!

I went for my first time today and was helped by Amber! She was very helpful, thank you so much!

Very friendly and quite helpful. Currently going through chemotherapy and looking for alternatives to help with the side effects of treatment. Hopefully options will increase over the next month or so.

Went in looking for a nectar collector. They were out which is fine but, the budtender then pulled out a dabber and told me it was almost the same thing. Best be educated in what you’re looking for before you go here. Still waiting for better quality bud and lower prices.

on opening day waited 3 hours total 1 hr B4 opening then 2 hour process wasn't to bad for grand opening. Bud tender did warn me of quality. so I bought lil of everything almost. pre rolls $26 for 2 -.5g cones don't share need whole 1 to catch a buzz. Don't smell or taste good considering price compared to other dispensary's in the state these are the most expensive. The only cartridge they have is Rythm Lemon Head 72.5% THC 8.6% THCa .5g for $90!! Without battery. Taste horrible compared to many others I have tasted. All flower is sold $60 1/8th only but as many 1/8ths you can carry. Can't smell or look at it. Everything is pre packaged and sealed!! strange... DIXIE tincture 1fl oz 50mg THC 50mg CBD $40 Vanilla flavored is naaaasssteyyyyyy!!!! But place looks awesome and staff is great! While waiting in snow they came out telling jokes and interacting with us. I will give FOWARDGRO more time growing before I buy any more of their products. Their flower and prerolls do the job just taste and aroma subpar. Hopefully Relief will get products from a variety of growers and processors. I will return again

Simply LOVE this place. After countless hours of research and being a new patient as of 2/3/2018, I had a fantastic experience. My bud-tender Amber was AWESOME! I also got a chance to meet one of the owners, who was Supa Cool and provided some uplifting information. I'm going to be along term patient here!! Special thanks to all of the founders and investors in this business. You have something special here.

Have been back a few times. Candice has been my tender most of my visits. Thanks for knowing your meds Candice.. The selection is getting bigger and better.. Keep up the amazing job Southern Maryland Relief!

Twice now I have driven up to this location only to find that they are not open. Their website is not up and running and no where to look to see what hours have changed. Door says open til 6pm on Tuesdays and thought that they would be open today, Guessed wrong. When Solomans Dispensary opens I will try it. Too far to drive up to This store only to find it closed! Disappointed for sure.

Cannot say enough good thing about SOMD Relief. The atmosphere is so welcoming and the staff is extremely helpful. Ive worked with Amber on multiple occasions and she's always taken plenty of time to discuss my options and help my find the best products to use.
December 11, 2017
Why are your prices like $5-$10 higher for everything compared to other dispensaries in MD.. if it's truly about helping patients then prices should be the around the same state wide.. kinda sucks the only place in SoMD is charging the highest prices in the state.. also has some of the most limited amount of choices.

This was my first time ever inside a dispensary. At first I was very nervous to walk in, just because of how cannabis is viewed to the general public. But, this place treats you like a true patient. They took the time to get to know who I was, what I was looking to relieve, how much do I regularly intake, etc. Although they are very low on product at this moment, I was able to purchase the Ace-Of-Spades and am very pleased with the effect. It was not too hefty, but more of a mellow high. Recommended for a day toke. Thanks Relief for the experience and the medicine.
