Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Cohen is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to obtain a thorough understanding of my history and medical issues. She offered sound advice and I definitely plan to use her in the future as well as recommend her to others.

Great doctor!
5 Stars, she made me feel at ease, I was confident that whatever she did would be perfect, I was impressed at how smooth she handled everything, from the time I met her prior to the procedure, the professionalism and command in the OR, totally in control, her relationship with the anesthesiologist and the after-procedure meeting.I would blindly recommend working with her.

Excellent doctor - long term patient
Telehealth
Dr. Cohen is knowledgeable, competent and extremely sensible. I highly recommend her. I have no time for placebos and quackery, or patience for unnecessary testing, and neither does she. I’m a complicated, chronically ill patient, and she has taken excellent care of me in the 10 years or so that I’ve been seeing her.

Good GI Doctor!
Dr. Cohen was very attentive and patient. She listened to all of my Gastro problems, as well as the measures that I had taken to alleviate them. She gave me her best possible recommendation and course of treatment. I felt very comfortable and unrushed in talking with her. And, I felt very comfortable with her explaination of available treatment options and why other testing and screening procedures were unnecessary at this time. I trust her medical competence and judgement. this was my first visit with her, and overall, a very positive experience.

I had a very positive first visit with Dr. Cohen. She gave me a thorough examination. And it seemed like she truly understood my concerns and took the time to address them. I felt quite comfortable during my visit. I'm so grateful for the care she provided.

Not happy with waiting.
I had to wait 5 months for an appointment. Dr. Cohen was annoyed that her appointment with me interrupted something else she was doing. I'd waited alone in an exam room for 30 minutes.....

I have had both telehealth and in person appointments. Dr,. Cohen listens and is easy to talk to. She is thorough, clear, practical. And her assistants and my internists' assistants coordinated in an amazing way that helped me with my symptoms before they quickly scheduled an appointment, Amazing.

Dr Jekyll and Ms Hyde?
Telehealth
My first two encounters with Dr Cohen, culminating in an endoscopy, went fine. She was friendly and helpful. However it took way too long to get a follow-up - several months - and it went horribly. It was kind of a Jekyll-and-Hyde experience. She was impatient, rude and condescending - very like what a couple of other reviewers described. At one point, she literally made a face and rolled her eyes in response to one of my questions. I will not see her again.

Positive experience with the doctor
Very positive experience. She listened patiently as this was my first visit. She was very intuitive and immediately understood my issues. She was very thorough and recommended a course that would most possibly eliminate my symptoms or at least lessen them.

be prepared to advocate
I’ve had a few appointments with Dr. Cohen and find her to be incredibly dismissive and doesn’t seem to want to help. I had to push her to identify any potential causes and provide a treatment plan. As a woman, I’m used to doctors being dismissive of my symptoms, but i thought that by going to a woman doctor she would be more receptive. As a patient, I shouldn’t have to push her to take my health seriously and I find her behavior concerning. She seemed annoyed by my questions and frustrated that I was asking about my own health. I would never suggest seeing her if you want to get help.
