Welcome to Peak By MD — my name is Dr. Mark Dukshtein. A native of Brooklyn, NY, I spent my post-graduate training and the first 6 years of my professional career in underserved areas. I pride myself on looking outside the scope of evidence-based medicine and strive to understand how chronic conditions impact my patient’s lives.
In 2018, I started a program called Tri-State Health & Compassion. The mission was to utilize medical cannabis as a treatment for chronic pain, anxiety, and cancer-related symptoms. my goal was to minimize the use of opioids and benzodiazepines.
Since the pandemic, the emphasis on health and wellness has been magnified. It started with my personal journey to getting healthier. I was overweight, tired, moody, and not happy with how my 30s were going. Learning the practice of self-compassion was a huge tool that allowed me to re-think my health goals, and allow me to focus on prioritizing my needs to develop habits that have led to weight loss, more energy, and a better mood.
I look forward to hearing your story, learning about your life, and how I can help make meaningful changes that will lead to lasting results. My treatments are medically supervised with close contact, giving you the best outcomes in your health and wellness journey.
You deserve to look better, feel better, and be better.
