The second medical marijuana dispensary in Chester County opened on Friday in Phoenixville, writes Sam Wood for the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Cure Pennsylvania opened a retail shop at 500 Kimberton Road.

Patients who want to purchase medical marijuana from the new dispensary need certification from an approved doctor that shows they are suffering from one of 17 serious medical conditions. Once the approval is granted, the person then needs to go through the registration process to receive a medical marijuana card.
