Ultra Health Announces Opening of Fifth Medical Cannabis Dispensary – Historic Route 66 Location

Albuquerque, New Mexico (March 25, 2016) – Today, Ultra Health specializing in medical grade cannabis, with cultivation, production, retail centers and operations in New Mexico, Arizona and Nevada has announced the grand opening of their fifth newest dispensary – formerly the Birdland – Hippie Store location in the beautiful Nob Hill neighborhood of Albuquerque, New Mexico and on the historic Route 66 trail.  The location is within walking distance of the University of New Mexico main campus.

“At Ultra Health, our mission is to provide the highest quality, affordable and convenient medical grade cannabis to New Mexico customers,” remarked Duke Rodriguez, President and CEO of Ultra Health.  “Throughout the redesign, we have respected the original theme of Birdland.  The VW bus is still inside the iconic store along with the funky psychedelic vibe that has been a part of the location for decades.”  Birdland is considered the original hippie store in Albuquerque.  

 

The newest cannabis dispensary is located at 3213 Central Avenue NE, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87106.  Plans to develop operations in the popular University of New Mexico and Nob Hill area were initiated by local business owners and patients residing in the neighborhood. The new state-approved dispensary, which includes a 2,400 square foot, highly secure and patient-friendly decor was designed to seamlessly integrate into the former location of the Birdland –the Hippie Store, will be the company’s fifth location on behalf of New Mexico Top Organics, Inc., a licensed operator. The facility has been inspected and approved for operation by the New Mexico Department of Health.

 

Ultra Health has quickly become the largest provider of medical grade cannabis in New Mexico.  Ultra Health has five dispensary locations to serve New Mexico patients: Hobbs, Santa Fe, Bernalillo, Albuquerque N.E. and Albuquerque Nob Hill – Birdland. Mr. Rodriguez stated, “Our professional staff is committed to continue serving with the compassion and caring that is becoming the model of cannabis medical care for other states. Our goal is not to be the biggest but to be the most committed medical cannabis company in defining excellence in our industry.”
