Silver State Relief - Sparks

12/30/2016
I frequent three marijuana dispensaries in Reno. I would estimate I have worked with 8 or 10 budTenders in the 3 months I've had my medical MJ card and there honestly does not seem to be a standard set of skills that the budTenders have in common. I find that surprising. I write this review now to publicly give kudos to my favorite budTender, whose name is David M. at Silver State Relief. I am an older woman who wants pain relief from my MJ or a mood enhancer or help with getting, and staying, asleep. Dave is the only dispensary agent who asked me what I wanted from usage of MJ. I found that quite astonishing since it is the health benefits of pot that opened the door to legalization of MJ. David has good listening skills and made recommendations based on what he learned about me. When I returned to see him again, he asked for feedback about my experiences with what I had purchased since I had last seen him. Great question. He was patient and never rushed me and since the marijuana industry has expanded so much in the 30 years I was sober, I had a lot of questions. Dave encouraged this. Other budTenders can be cavalier and I get the strong impression that they push onto you either whatever product has caught their fancy for the moment or what they may have been told to push. One thing is certain: we consumers are going to experience varying services from budtenders while we move through the infancy of the legal marijuana movement.
