History: The founder of Vireo Health, Dr. Kyle Kingsley, spent many years working in emergency medicine, often with patients who were suffering from severe side effects or had overdosed on their prescription medications. At the same time he treated these cases, a few of his other patients reported success using medical marijuana to manage or alleviate their pain. Witnessing those patients regain their health using this alternative treatment inspired Dr. Kingsley to open his first medical marijuana company, Minnesota Medical Solutions. Earning their merit-based cannabis dispensary license in 2014 from the state of Minnesota, Dr. Kingsley wanted to expand medical cannabis’ benefits into newly legalized New York through another company: Vireo Health of New York. The company won their New York dispensary license in July 2015, and since opening their medical marijuana dispensary doors in Albany and throughout New York, they have helped hundreds of New York medical cannabis patients relieve their suffering using medical marijuana treatments.
