Very good
Verified patient
He was very pleasant and knowledgeable and told me my options I have with my current condition. Only complaint is about the prescriptions. I listed CVS, the city & phone # and was waiting all day, called twice and still nothing. So I left a message with their call service & the doctor on call returned my call & for whatever reason, Dr. Kohan had Walgreens as my pharmacy, so the on call Dr. sent them to my CVS & listed it as my usual. But then somehow 1 medication was filled at Walgreens & the other at CVS! So it was VERY confusing & stressful, but thank goodness for the call service, because I needed both medications.
Very nice man. Very knowledgeable about my condition. Answered all my questions and spent the required time with me. Reviewed all of the medical records I brought with me. Made sure all of my medications were correct. He will be my urologist from now on.
