Miracle Leaf® Editorial Team

Who We Are

The Miracle Leaf® Editorial Team is the institutional byline that maintains and reviews content on this site. The team includes clinic operations staff and licensed physicians within the Miracle Leaf® network across Florida, Georgia, and Texas. We chose an Organization byline, not a single natural-person author credit, because a single physician does not certify patients in every state we serve, and an honest credit reflects how the content is actually produced and reviewed.

A medical certification decision in your individual case is made by a licensed physician during your in-person evaluation at a Miracle Leaf® clinic. Nothing on this site is medical advice for your case.

What We Review

The editorial team owns the reviewer byline on every page in these content classes:

• Clinic location pages. One page per Miracle Leaf® clinic with the address, hours, the local program rules, and the state-registry pointer.
• State program hubs. Top-level program pages for Florida, Georgia, and Texas with the qualifying conditions, fee schedule, registry process, and the cite to the statute.
• Card-acquisition guides. Step-by-step pages explaining how a qualifying patient reaches certification in each state.
• Qualifying-condition spokes. Per-condition pages with the NASEM evidence framing where available and the state-by-state eligibility map.
• State-law explainers. Pages that summarize possession, decriminalization, and CDL-testing posture for each state we serve.

Pages outside this scope, such as the Privacy Policy or Terms of Service, are reviewed by counsel and not by the editorial team.

How We Verify Program Facts

Every regulatory or program-rule claim on this site cites a primary state authority and carries the date the claim was last verified. The same three authorities are the anchor for content in each state.

Florida. Program rules cite the Office of Medical Marijuana Use (OMMU) at floridahealth.gov and Florida Statute 381.986. Patients can verify a certifying physician through the OMMU qualified physician search. The base state registry application fee is $75 plus a $2.75 online convenience fee for a $77.75 typical total for the online-paying patient.

Georgia. Program rules cite the Georgia Department of Public Health Low-THC Oil Patient Registry and the Hope Act statute at O.C.G.A. Title 16 Chapter 12 Article 9. Patients can confirm program rules and registry contact details through the Georgia DPH Low-THC Oil Patient Registry. The state registry card fee is $30 and the card is valid for five years.

Texas. Program rules cite the Texas Department of State Health Services Compassionate Use Program and Health and Safety Code Chapter 487, plus the HB 46 amendments adopted in 2025 that move the program to a dose-based 10 mg THC limit and clarify chronic pain and PTSD eligibility. Texas has no patient card and no state fee for the patient. The certifying physician enters the prescription into the Compassionate Use Registry of Texas operated by the Department of Public Safety.

The Review Process

Content is reviewed on this cadence.

1. Quarterly walk-through. Each program hub, card guide, and condition spoke is read against the current state authority page on the same review date. The last_verified date on the page records the most recent walk-through.
2. On-statute-change rebuild. When a state legislature adopts a substantive change to its medical cannabis statute, or when a state agency publishes a fee or eligibility change, the corresponding pages are rebuilt the same week and republished with the new last_verified date and a body note where appropriate.
3. On-source-link rot. When a cited state authority page moves or returns a non-200, the editorial team locates the new authority page or, if no replacement exists, removes the claim rather than leaving a dead citation in place.

We never paraphrase a regulatory claim from a secondary source. Either the primary state authority is cited, or the claim is not on the page.

What We Do Not Do

This is the explicit anti-list, because the omissions are as load-bearing as the inclusions.

• No fabricated natural-person bylines. No physician name is attached to a page unless that physician personally reviewed the page and the credit is accurate.
• No medical advice for individual cases. A certification decision is made during an in-person evaluation. No site content substitutes for that visit.
• No fabricated reviews. The site emits no AggregateRating and no Review JSON-LD. Visible review signal is sourced live from Google Business Profile through the Google Places API.
• No outcome promises. The site does not promise a certification result, a card-issuance result, or a clinical outcome.
