My time with Dr. Cohen was very good. All the Zocdoc stuff leading up to it was a gigantic waste of time. The absolute worst I have ever dealt with by a wide margin.

My tele-visit with Dr. Cohen and his colleague was excellent. He was very patient with me and highly informative. I look forward with great optimism to having him as a physician involved in my case.

It's difficult to judge based on over-the-phone meeting but seems like he will be good. There was some miscommunication about my lab results. I emailed and asked how I could send them and never heard back. I then called two days before my appointment and the nice lady said I didn't need to send them in. Then on the day of the call, of course it was his first question. I can only seem to get a phone number for scheduling and not to a person in the medical office so I really don't know who to call or send my labs to. Nephrology is 100% dependent on lab results so I am not satisfied with the way this has been handled.

Dr. Cohen is very knowledgeable of current research and he kindly humors an engaged, curious patient (a prized quality that can be rare among providers). I appreciate his positive, friendly demeanor and willingness to answer every question patiently. I feel safe, respected, and confident about a course of treatment under his care.

Dr. Cohen is a splendid doctor and I'm delighted that I had an opportunity to see him. He is highly knowledgeable communictaes his knowledge superbly.
Dr. Cohen was very thorough and seemed very knowledgeable. He explained everything in detail and repeated it a few times to make sure I understood and it sunk in. I was taken back a few minutes before my appt time. All of the staff members I came in contact with were very pleasant.
