It is rare to find a doctor in NYC who has the skillset, professionalism, bedside manner, and communication style Dr. Cohen possesses in spades. He is so patient, kind, and reassuring, great with patients (my son) and their worried moms (me). He is so easy to connect with! He is current, modern, and flexible! He took extra time to explain my son’s injuries and the treatment plan. Dr Cohen took time after the work day in the evening (to accommodate the family) to explain my son’s injuries via Zoom and diagrams…He is so patient, reassuring, such a pro and I really cannot say enough great things about him!
“After tearing my ACL in college and having an unsuccessful ACL reconstruction while living in Los Angeles in 2016, I began seeing Dr. Cohen when I moved to NYC in 2017. In Dec 2019 I decided to undergo a second full ACL reconstruction by Dr. Cohen and two-years post surgery I am better/stronger than I ever was…”

“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.”

“Dr. Cohen is one of the best surgeons I've worked with. He is kind, funny, helps to make me feel at ease and does not push surgery. I have known Dr. Cohen for 6+ years. He's done two menisci repairs and will do my knee replacements as soon as I'm ready. Love him & his staff. “

“Dr. Cohen is warm, caring, and professional. I had no doubts about his competence. He's very honest and would not recommend surgery unless absolutely necessary. I did not feel rushed at all, and the staff could not have been more pleasant and helpful. His new office on Madison Avenue is pristine and beautiful! I highly recommend Dr. Cohen.”
