Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Cohen is an excellent doctor. He explains everything very clearly. He concentrates on the patient. Every question is answered to my satisfaction. So basically it’s nice to have a doctor with expertise and a great ability to speak to the patient’s concerns. He also spends time with the patient and does not rush the appointment.

As Good As It Gets!
I went to see Dr. Cohen with both a muscular-skeletal and ocular situation. He was extremely thorough, knowledgeable, kind, and understanding. He is not a good doctor... he is a GREAT doctor! His patients are fortunate to have such a caring medical professional.

I was looking forward to visiting Dr. Cohen, however, I experienced TERRIBLE costumer service from his workers, one worker who wouldn’t prove her name due to realization of her poor communication skills. Each had very unprofessional tones and would not allow me to ask questions without being interrupted. I highly would not recommend this office, the first thing you experience before attending a new doctor’s office is the workers and I had a very unpleasant turn off by not one, but two workers. When I mention I was going to leave a review she told me to go ahead, very unsatisfied.

I had to have an EMG/NERVE CONDUCTION STUDY... I was very nervous... Dr. Cohen was very kind and compassionate. He took the time to explain everything and really made me feel I could get through the test... which I did! He had a lot of patience and he was extremely understanding of my apprehension. If you need this test ... have it with him... he is great!
