Dr. Cohen is the best of the best of the best. I had a large tumor (42.85mm x 37.79mm) pressing against my brain. I was referred to Dr. Cohen, who reviewed my scans and gave me the peace of mind that he could remove the tumor. Dr. Cohen was very kind and patient with me and even took the time to have a virtual appointment with my wife and I to answer several questions and concerns we had.
There are many attributes that describe Dr. Cohen: he is incredibly skillful, he has a tremendous bedside manner, he is kind and wants what is best for his patients.
