PDI Medical, a medical marijuana dispensary, will open Monday, Dec. 21, at 1623 Barclay Blvd. in Buffalo Grove, offering qualified patients one-on-one consulting by pharmacists and cannabis experts as well as a wide variety of pharmaceutical-grade cannabis medicines.

PDI Medical is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. through 6 p.m. and Saturdays from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m.

Mandel is CEO of PDI Medical and owner of Mark Drugs, a 30-year-old compounding pharmacy with locations in Deerfield and Roselle. Friedman is chief operating officer. Information is at (224) 377-9734, or pdimedical.com.
