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.

Like the doctor, not front desk
I really like Dr. Cohen. I really do. However, the current office staff is very inefficient. There have been a lot of office staff changes, but this one I am not a fan of. They've canceled my appointment and blamed me, making me wait 2 weeks. They claim they call to confirm the appointment, which they don't (at least not me). And it is so overbooked so you better get there early for your appointment. Dr. Cohen is good, and will go above and beyond to get what you need, but if the office staff was more efficient, I'd return.

Long time patient
I've been seeing him for many years. He will battle insurance loopholes to get the meds or treatment you need. He's honest too. You can be there for a while, but you will get seen and help.

dr. cohen is a truly helpful doctor. when i needed a second opinion regarding my pain he and his staff made sure all authorizations and testing was done in a timely manner! many people may not get his humor but he's very humorous and very caring of all patients needs. whenever i am in the office the receptionist is always helpful or attending to us, the patients needs and the doctor is always thorough in his work.

Going to him many years so he knows how my condition is and knows how it can or can't be treated and is done as such. He is knowledgeable in that sense. Will try his hardest to get what you need authorized through insurance and their loopholes.

After two hours of waiting doctor says he no longer can see me unless I wait another 45 minutes because he is backed up and overbooked. Rescheduled appointment two days later for 9AM. Arrived on time for 9AM appointment only to be told that the doctor is not in and has not called in. After waiting another 1/2 hour I'm now told that another patient will be seen before me because he has" access-a-ride".......doctor still has not shown up so I leave. Staff discourteous.and couldn't care less.

If I could give no stars I would. Doctor was very rude, sarcastic, and uninterested about everything including my condition. After asking him if my condition was permanent he looked at me straight in the eye and said did you see a sign out side of my door saying that I am God? I don't know the answers to these questions. You call yourself a doctor responding to your patients like this? I don't know how he became a doctor with that attitude caring about your patients is part of the job also!
