The best!
From the moment I stepped into Dr. Cohen's office I felt comfortable and completely certain that he would help fix my neck. The staff at the front desk is beyond helpful and personable. Dr Cohen was very informative and never pushed any procedures, however he informed me of what was going on with me and then gave me options. I eventually opted for the procedure, albeit my nerves and reservations. Now that I am a month out of the surgery I am so thankful for not only Dr. Cohen but his entire staff. I am basically pain free and I know I am on the road to being 100% and getting my life back prior to my injury. Not only is he very skilled but he is very professional and his bedside manner is beyond measure. If you have any neurosurgery needs this guy should be your first stop.

Dr. Cohen is absolutely the best in his field. If anyone needs surgery for their neuro or spinal condition they would be foolish not to consult with Dr. Cohen first. He is caring, understanding, and has the surgical skills to accomplish even the most difficult surgeries. Besides those qualities he is innovative which separates him from the vast field of neurosurgeons.
