Dr. Konstantinos Koutelos, MD 8401 Fort Hamilton Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11209

"Konstantinos Koutelos is not a safe doctor for women or trauma- informed in the slightest. He facilitated my most recent renewal at Marijuana Doctor in Zephyrhills, FL and I am now going about severing ties with Marijuana Doctor and redoing my renewal with a more qualified physician. As Jess included in her review, he made jokes and laughed about confirmed traumatic experiences used as reasoning for the prescription, asking specific intimate details regarding it for his own knowledge (as I’ve had previous renewals where I was not mandated to disclose details), and after asking if I’d personally reported, going so far as to state that “women these days don’t report sexual assault because they’re afraid their dads will shoot the guy.” He asked me multiple times who I slept with when I didn’t immediately answer (I was taken aback by the random question by a MJDR physician and his explanation for asking was that if my partner snored it would affect my sleep and by proxy migraines), and when I stated my dog, continuously pushed me to disclose if i had a “boyfriend, girlfriend, or both, because who knows nowadays.” When discussing vaping routes, he immediately lowered my limit based on his opinions that vaping is too harmful a route for someone “fit and young” and mandated I read two paragraphs aloud to him from a Michigan study off his personal phone that he shoved across the desk at me and doubled down on the demand when I asked him if it was necessary for me to read aloud (as I’ve had previous renewals where this was never the case). He winked at me continuously throughout the appointment and coupled with his unnecessary invasive questions, I was also incredibly uncomfortable and dissociated as Jess noted in her review and just nodded along to get through the appointment. He referred to medical marijuana as drugs throughout my appointment and said he’s not really a “weed doctor”. This is just a snippet of what was said during my renewal. Women and PTSD survivors beware, he disclosed he works at Marijuana Doctor in both Zephyrhills and Clearwater as well as a practice in New York. I wouldn’t wish the time I spent behind closed doors with him on anybody."

"Awful experience. Not Trauma informed. Made disparaging comments about weight and appearance and casually joked about my various confirmed traumatic experiences while prescribing marijuana for what he acknowledged were PTSD-like symptoms. Severing ties with Marijuana Doctor due to this experience. Felt uncomfortable in a closed room with him and dissociated during most of the appointment. For previous patients trying to find him, he's working at Marijuana Doctor in Tampa Bay now."

"Left his practice with no notification to his current patients who have been with him 20 years plus! No explanation given by front desk to why, nor can anyone get their medical records! How unethical!"

"Dr Koutelos abandoned his practice as of 8/2022. No way to get medical records, hundreds of patients are scrambling. He Did not leave referral to another doctor. This is unethical."

"I too am trying to find out what happened to Dr. K. Seen him for 10 years and suddenly he’s not seeing patients anymore. Office assistants aren’t saying why."
