My husband has been coming to Authentic pretty much since they opened. Everyone there knows him but just about EVERY worker there is either super rude to him and rushes him out the door OR they see him walk in and they go running in the back to avoid him….besides one guy. We legit just left Authentic about 15-20 min ago and once again my husband explains how he walked in and he saw them all run to the back besides the best dude that works there. I'm sorry I don't know his name, but I'm sure they all know who I'm talking about. Now, believe me, I know my husband is a difficult customer. I don't go into the store with him because I know how indecisive he is and I myself get impatient. But….he's a CUSTOMER! He isn't buying cannabis just to get high! He's a chronic pain patient and this is his MEDICINE. So of course he's going to have questions or want to do his research because he needs the right product to help his pain. I want to give Authentic 5 stars because we do love you guys! But idk if we will be coming around much longer if these workers don't change their attitudes and my husband has most definitely bought enough cannabis from you guys to be treated with a LITTLE more respect. I've been in customer service my whole work life and even with the difficult customers, we treat them all the same! I thought the cannabis community was like this too but it just shows how unprofessional they are in there. Besides homeboy who took care of my husband! THANK YOU! And I'm sorry I don't have your name. I don't usually leave reviews or complain but this has been going on for months now and it's only gotten worse. So I've had enough and just would like to make Authentic aware that some of their workers are NOT meant for customer service. – Laneea Wilcox

Valeteen was very wonderful Budtender. She had a great attitude and welcoming smile. She was very knowledgeable about her products, as I took some of her time. I am new to the area and she made me feel like a regular. I will be asking for her every time I come in. Thank you for a great knowledgeable experience Valeteen. – Josh Roach

The lady that helped me (Valenteen) was a top tier employee. Showed me around my first time, answered all of my questions and some! Overall, made my first time here a great experience with her generosity! Def coming back. This place also has great prices compared to other dispensaries in Modesto – Sarah Davis

Angelique was grrrrrrrreat!!! Like the 🐅 Tony T would say… fast customer service. And she was very perfectional. She's definitely a keeper. My personal opinion. thx – Josh Martin
