Review for Dr. Cohen

We met Dr. Gulack with our grandson at 2 days old and now, 6 months old with 3 surgical procedures, he is doing great. Dr. Gulack was thorough, conservative and spoke with the parents as they needed to be spoken with. His attention to the needs of the child was resounding and gracious. Thank God...
