Recreational dispensaries are geared more towards recreational users - so they will have more products that are significantly higher in THC and staff that is not medically trained to address a medically related question. Also, there is less oversight over the products they sell. A medical dispensary will have more balanced ratios for their products, a pharmacist on staff to handle any medical questions you may have, and strictly regulated products (tested at the Wadsworth Laboratory - a lab regulated by New York State's Department of Health).
