The State Board of Medical Examiners suspended the license of Dr. Alfred D. Kulik pending the outcome of an administrative hearing, according to Attorney General Jennifer Davenport and the Division of Consumer Affairs.
State officials alleged Kulik, a Fort Lee physician registered in New Jersey’s Medical Cannabis Program, authorized medical marijuana for approximately 95% of his patients, including children.
About 10% of Kulik’s patients were under 18 years old, with most of those patients between the ages of 6 and 12. Officials also alleged Kulik “never refuses to authorize medical marijuana for any patient, child or adult, including for children when pediatricians are unwilling to do so.”
The Board found Kulik allegedly failed to follow multiple legal requirements tied to authorizing medical marijuana, including establishing physician-patient relationships, conducting physical exams, and reviewing treatment records from other doctors.
The Board also noted Kulik allegedly described physical examinations as “meaningless” and testified that he often approved medical marijuana after a patient’s first visit.
Kulik’s medical license will remain suspended while the case proceeds through the Office of Administrative Law, officials said.
