David Boguslavsky, MD — Medical Director

David Boguslavsky, MD

Board Certified — Family Medicine & Medical Acupuncture
Founder & Medical Director, PremierMD · All Locations
Family Medicine Medical Acupuncture Medical Cannabis Integrative Medicine Spravato

Dr. Boguslavsky founded PremierMD in 2006 with a conviction that medicine should treat the whole patient — not just symptoms, not just diagnoses. A graduate of Robert Wood Johnson Medical School and UCLA's prestigious Helms Medical Acupuncture Institute, he is dual board-certified in both Family Medicine and Medical Acupuncture — one of a small number of physicians in New Jersey to hold both certifications.

When New Jersey's Medical Cannabis Program launched, Dr. Boguslavsky was among the first physicians in the state to register with the NJMMP, recognizing cannabis therapy as a legitimate clinical option for the patients he had already been treating for chronic pain, PTSD, anxiety, and other qualifying conditions. With 20 years of patient relationships behind him, he brought something the standalone certification industry could not: a real medical practice, real clinical records, and real ongoing care. He has since certified thousands of NJ patients and remains at the forefront of cannabinoid medicine research and practice.

Our Standard

Every Provider Is Licensed, Trained, and Genuinely Invested in Your Care

We do not hire physicians for volume. Every clinician at PremierMD is credentialed with the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission, maintains their state medical license, and participates in ongoing education on cannabinoid medicine.

We are also part of a broader practice — PremierMD, Inc. — which means your cannabis care doesn't happen in isolation. Your provider can coordinate with our family medicine, psychiatry, and pain management teams when your care calls for it. This is what real medical care looks like.
