October 28, 2009 (Los Angeles, CA) — The LA Times’ Lopez writes in his latest column, “A visit to the medical marijuana doctor,” about his experience visiting a medical marijuana referring physician — and receiving a recommendation for medical marijuana for his back pain. The story appears online and in the daily October 28th edition of The LA Times, page 2.

At one point, Lopez recalls reading an article from the October issue of THE 420 TIMES magazine while waiting nervously for his appointment. His concerns were put at ease by reading the magazine’s informative story “Your First Doctor Visit.”

"Our magazine has always been about providing valuable information on medical marijuana. There are

so many issues and questions about this form of natural healing — and we are glad to hear that THE 420 TIMES was available to answer some of those questions for The LA Times," says Editor Brian Lancer of THE 420 TIMES. Our monthly print edition and website continue to provide real stories of interest to those seeking treatment with medical marijuana."

Lancer mentions, "We have expanded the distribution of our magazine to include more doctors’ offices because the demand there is so high. Numerous doctors have told us that it’s a favorite among patients." The 420 Times also continues their successful distribution through most 7-11’s in Los Angeles County.
