“a gifted surgeon; a nice guy; and a professional office”
Dr. Cohen performed two surgeries on my left knee. About five years ago he operated on my meniscus. He talked me thru the procedure, patiently answered all of my questions while reassuring me that the surgery would go well. He was right about the surgery but he also informed me that my knee had extensive arthritis and would eventually need a total replacement. We were hoping that would be ten years down the road but it came much sooner than that. In the meantime, he offered various therapies designed to alleviate the pain and stiffness. Surgery was, however, inevitable. Dr. Cohen never rushed me; he allowed me to come to that conclusion on my own. He told me exactly what to expect in the days and weeks following the surgery. I am now eight weeks post-op and have returned to all activities -- working out six times a week, going for long walks and even hiking. I could not have asked for a better surgeon or a more professional support staff.

I feel the luckiest person in the world. A very active mom of two who loves to exercise was very nervous and definitely procrastinated in having surgery. Dr Cohen and I immediately clicked. He made me feel super comfortable, was extremely realistic with me and made me feel as though I could do anything. He was right, everything he said came true and nothing was a mystery, he was utterly brilliant during surgery and has had my best interest in mind ALL the time. It has been such a pleasure going through this and having him by my side. I would trust him with anything. Super passionate about what he does and his patients.

Dr. Cohen and his whole staff and team completely helped me fast track my foot back to normal from an accident. He was attentive, caring, and went above and beyond to get me into surgery with him immediately. I have honestly never felt so cared for in a professional setting before. As a professional Dancer and Actress he saved me from a devastating injury. I am leaving his care and recommending him to any other professional dancer or friend that I can because this has been the best experience.

Dr. Cohen is truly my favorite doctor. Since being referred to him several years ago, for a knee problem; he remains the caregiver I look forward to seeing. He is attentive; always professional; and seems to truly enjoy his what he does. I find his sense of humor anxiety reducing and certainly one of his most appealing characteristics. Whenever I have an opportunity to recommend an orthopedist, I recommend him without reservation and with great enthusiasm. He's the BEST!!!!

I've been working with Dr. Cohen for about three years and I can't say enough positive things about him and his team. Dr. Cohen took the time to listen to me and my concerns/fears and we tried every route possible before surgery (PT, injections etc.). Eventually we did have to do surgery and it went so well. He was super attentive pre and post -op and made himself very available. The office staff is wonderful and available to help with every little thing. Thank you so much!

Dr. Cohen is a one of a kind doctor in New York City. He spends considerable time with his patients. I have never once felt rushed out of his office. He is communicative and responsive beyond office visits as well. In my vast experience in the sports medicine world of NYC, Dr. Cohen is a rare find.

I had previously seen Dr. Cohen for knee issues so when my meniscus started giving me trouble and ultimately detached, he was my go to. He is kind, funny, and incredibly competent. His team including Alex and those at the front desk is also the best! I was able to see Dr. Cohen almost immediately and have surgery scheduled at Midtown Surgical Center. Everyone walked me through the process and the costs ahead of time and i felt completely comfortable. The surgery was very easy and the recovery was also quick and as painless as possible, in my opinion. Within a few weeks I was up and about - and now, just 4 months later, have complete movement and minimal residual pain. He is now also treating my wife now for some knee concerns. We are able to make appointments at the same time and we feel so well cared for! I could not more highly recommend Dr. Cohen and his team! Yay!

Dr. Cohen has been my Ortho for over 10 years and I adore him. Even when I'm limping into the office, I look forward to coming to the office. His staff are terrific, very kind and communicative. He has the best bed side manner and a great sense of humor! He's not one of those surgeons who's dying to cut and always exhausts the non-invasive options first before turning to surgery. He's an excellent communicator and takes time to explain the issues at hand. I could not recommend him more.

I visited Dr. Cohen for both knee swelling/soreness and a rather painful shoulder that wasn't really working properly. I was diagnosed accurately and quickly and the recommended procedure has resolved my pain and swelling issues. In truth I was more than pleasantly surprised as I thought the treatment would not provide much relief. I was wrong and am quite happy that this proved to be the case. I would most definitely recommend Dr. Cohen et. al. and (hopefully) will not have to be back soon!

Comment - “ a gifted surgeon; a nice guy; and a professional office ”
Dr. Cohen performed two surgeries on my left knee. About five years ago he operated on my meniscus. He talked me thru the procedure, patiently answered all of my questions while reassuring me that the surgery would go well. He was right about the surgery but he also informed me that my knee had extensive arthritis and would eventually need a total replacement. We were hoping that would be ten years down the road but it came much sooner than that. In the meantime, he offered various therapies designed to alleviate the pain and stiffness. Surgery was, however, inevitable. Dr. Cohen never rushed me; he allowed me to come to that conclusion on my own. He told me exactly what to expect in the days and weeks following the surgery. I am now eight weeks post-op and have returned to all activities -- working out six times a week, going for long walks and even hiking.
