Currently, Dr. Koffler is the Medical Director in practices in NYC, Stamford CT, and more recently in Miami Beach, FL. For the last four years, Dr. Koffler has been studying biochemistry, and therapeutic applications of Marijuana.

He believes Medical Marijuana has a broad spectrum of therapeutic value in multiple conditions/diseases with a more acceptable side effect profile than most modern pharmaceuticals. As a certified doctor to recommend Medical Marijuana in all three states that he practices medicine in he has been successfully recommending the appropriate application of it with patients with a variety of conditions.

Reviews
Dr Koffler was recommended by a friend, I spoke with a very helpful patient care specialist, then with Dr Koffler. He referred me to another doctor for an evaluation, then we had another visit. Everyone involved was friendly helpful and informative. Good people.
Dr. Koffler expresses true interest in my situation and provides helpful recommendations.
Dr. Koffler and his whole office made everything very easy. He was a great listener and explained everything in great detail. He spent a lot of time going over options with me and I would certainly recommend.
I want to thank Dr.Koffler for understanding,great quality of service and care
Very personable and knowledgeable in his field. Attentive and caring!
Dr. Koffler was exceptional to work with, definitely not the run-of-the-mill experience.
What stood out most about my experience was knowing the doctor based my treatment on all the information provided. The visit with Dr. Koffler felt personal and tailored towards adequately treating me.
In my first visit, Dr. Koffler said things about my diet and my condition that I wish my regular doctors would have said when I was first diagnosed.
I have been a patient with Dr. K for two years and he never disappoints. He listens, addresses and answers all questions and concerns. The recommendations he gave me were spot on and work perfectly
Ready to help and educate
Made the process much less complicated.
I was able to get a same day appointment with Dr. Koffler. He listened to my concerns. He gave me a lot of helpful information and info on where to go if I needed a recap or to reach him with any questions. He was very easy going and easy to communicate with. He seems to really care for his patients which is a rarity in the world today. I look forward to continuing as his patient.
We spoke about a few issues I had been dealing with and previous treatments. Dr. Koffler listened to everything I had to share and then provided an expert opinion on next steps for coping with these issues.
Dr Koffler is professional and approachable. At the same time, he has empathy. Without a doubt, a great decision for a tele-med doctor.
Very good. Easy to talk to. Listens and advises with lots of information and recommendations. Relatable and understanding. Highly recommend!
Dr.K was willing to spend the time to understand what was the correct way to deal with my needs and was a joy to talk with.
A+ experience here at Axom with a wholistic health focus approach
this doctor was easy to talk to and he properly diagnose my condition.
Very good experience
Dr. Koffler cares very much about his patients and takes time to listen to my concerns. He also explains each of his treatments in a way that I can understand.
