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. Cohn and staff are amazing!
Dr. Cohn and his staff are amazing. He did surgery on my trigger thumb and I immediately had relief. I cannot recommend him enough.

Worst customer care
I went to see Dr Cohen and he looked, and said I would need an mri on my wrist. Meanwhile someone came in and took me to X-ray my wrist. Then she said “oops, he wants an mri” and I AM BEING BILLED FOR THE OOPS 3 X-RAYS, The MRI was booked for the day after my appointment so that I would have results for my follow up appt but I got a call from the radiology facility that insurance won’t cover it. So I have been calling Dr Cohens office to no avail. I am told a peer to peer review will be needed and someone will get back to me. 4 weeks later and still no call. Had to cancel my follow up because what’s the point So I’m being billed for a visit and 3 X-rays that HE DIDNT ORDER TO BE DONE but were done at his boca office. This type of non service would hurt my own business if I did not respond to one phone call out of many. I will find another doctor. Can’t even get an office manager to call me back.

Great Treatment
Several years ago I was in an auto accident, transported to Bethesda & treated by Dr. Cohn in the ER followed by surgery on my wrist fracture at JFK & physical therapy in his Boynton office. The surgery, his staff, physical therapy & follow up was excellent. The scar is barely noticeable & my wrist is 100% today many years later. No long waits in his office for his care or care of his physical therapists.

I injured my shoulder at the gym in March of 2020, which was right in the beginning of the Covid19 pandemic. I waited in pain for months for a doctor's office to open up. Then, I had an MRI completed. I made an appointment for Dr. Cohn to go over the findings. Dr. Cohn's office runs about 1-2 hours behind, and they don't bother to tell you either. When I met with Dr. Cohn to find out the status of my MRI, he was incredibly rude and lacked compassion for the tremendous pain that I was in. He treated me like a worker's compensation patient. He didn't think that my shoulder injury was serious and he walked out of the room. I left his office in tears. I wouldn't even send my worst enemy to Dr. Cohn. A few weeks later, I went to another orthopedic surgeon who thoroughly explained and pointed out my MRI findings. In addition, he stated that I indeed need repair surgery to repair my detached labrum, torn rotator cuff, and shoulder socket.

He’s a really nice guy and a fantastic doctor. Dr. C has worked on my arthritic hand and my husband’s broken wrist. But our first meeting was when our son was 7, he broke his little finger while goofing off at the morning bus stop. We rushed him to the orthopedic office hoping someone could help. Dr. C took him right in and set his finger. It took all morning to get that little finger straight but it was perfect. He is kind and will explain what needs to be done.

Very rude and ill mannered Dr. I got not the slightest bit of compassion. Very fast talking like acomputer. Atleast he had the good sense to say he couldn't do my surgery well. ! You take it from there.

Dr. Cohn is very knowledgeable. He was professional and courteous. He took time to listen to my concerns about my pain level and ways to address it. I liked that he explained everything that was going on in my MRI and gave me several different treatment options and did not try to push surgery.

I was very pleased with my visit for a new problem. The office is very efficient. I was greeted at the front desk checked in early and my appointment was on time. I drive 2 hours to be treated by the Orthopedic Center. It is so worth the time.
