Arborside Medical & Recreational Dispensary — Attraction in Ann Arbor

UPDATE AND KEEPING IT!! They replied with complete ignorance only to disrespect me and try to save their butt's with this review. I emailed them immediately..it's been a week with NO response. Thank you for trying to to belittle me and reply with nonsense instead of asking your employees what tf happened

FELLOW MEDICAL PATIENTS AND FIRST TIMERS

If you're looking for somewhere with the most knowledgeable budtenders that will take their time showing products and steer you to better deals that specifically meet your diagnosis? KEEP LOOKING.

First time for everything. For me, it was walking out of a dispensary I've never been to with nothing but 14 months of sobriety on my mind. Im recovering alcoholic with severe, very real, medical problems.

I went in because everyone has heard about FLWRPOT. I was excited about the 40% off for first timers, that I didn't know about. I was called in and told the lady what I was there for. Medical problems, addiction, etc. She was so quick to show and seal the product up before I could ask the name. After I had some FLWRPOT ready I finally see the MEDICAL. She tossed the med menu and stopped talking to me. Wouldn't allow anyone to help me. Wouldn't ask. Wouldn't allow 40% off. All because I'm Medical? You didn't think I was going to take the house product too? Or was it because I didn't buy your "get off the selves" stuff? Regardless the reason why I was treated so badly, that was actually my worst patient and customer service experience in my life. You guys really put all the cherries on top...

Sampson was beyond excellent! I was struggling to decide on products so instead of pickup, I just went in store. He was upbeat, positive, and when expressing exactly what I was looking for along with reason why and conditions to treat, he was spot on and very helpful. Only one aspect he said he was not the most educated in so he asked Ryan to come speak with me. Sometime’s staff at various shops won’t hand you off but he did! He truly cares about those coming in.

Ryan was equally incredible. I had a multitude of questions about plants available, growing, soil, lighting, indoor/outdoor, trimming, my God SO many questions! Lol These guys were phenomenal at helping me. Ryan even took time to really discuss the stages, things that can interfere with growth, and even various options available.

We have been long time customers at A2’s Arborside, always had a great experience, but moved to the Milford area so try to stop when we are in town for medical appts. They are worth it! My only disappointment is they got rid of the full spectrum cbd oils from Earth Remedies. Those are excellent products and I miss the one stop shop.

Thank you’s and gratitude to A2 team and especially Sampson and Ryan for their patience and willingness to listen, provide, defer and a smooth, quick process. You guys truly are the best...

I have gotten several strains from different providers here. The flower was poorly dried and cured, every sample I tried was wet weed.The dry/cure process is the most vital step in presenting proper poi. These people and many other growers and providers seem to have forgotten this vital step. The Clinic in Ypsilanti on Cross st. is NOT one of these Posers. Why does the dry/cure process matter? Wet weed smells good and is easy to push for profit-centric purveyors of their wet weed. but is tastes BAD. Cannabis with a proper dry/cure is not as shall we say Loud but you can savor the flavor as you imbibe. I have been sampling providers with an eye to their awareness of growers who respect the dry/cure stage and far too many are just pushing WET WEED. I have a full list of these miscreants and will be publishing reviews for them. Arborside and Bloom both had interesting responses...P.S. stay away from Arbor sideway and Blom Check out the Clinic...
