ABOUT US

Hello, my name is Dr. Rene Pulido, one of the medical marijuana doctors in Jacksonville. I was born into a Cuban-Nicaraguan family and went to grade school at Assumption Catholic, and then went on to Bishop Kenny High School where I played football. When I was not on the football field, I was helping my father at Pulido’s Automotive, which he co-established in 1965. My mother always said, “If you could fix people like you fix cars, you would be a great doctor.”

After high school, my father convinced me to follow in the footsteps of my uncles Jesus and Alex, who were both local physicians. I went on to attend medical school in Costa Rica and completed the residency portion of my medical training at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville. I loved training at the Mayo Clinic; their multi-disciplinary teamwork approach to treating patients was a very powerful tool in revealing to me what medicine can be.

After graduating residency, I returned to the St. Nicholas area where I grew up as a child and opened my first Primary Care Center next to my mother’s restaurant, Havana Jax. Deciding to emulate Mayo Clinic, I implemented their teamwork approach, and it helped my practice blossom and evolve into what it is today – a 25,000 square foot medical multispecialty center. We also have an on-site pharmacy, in-house imaging, labs, and a vegan café.

I feel like Affordable Marijuana License Clinic is one of the best clinics in Jacksonville because it is large enough to handle the majority of patient needs and small enough that each patient matters. You’re not just a number and can speak directly to several of the most trusted medical marijuana doctors in Jacksonville at any time.
