Very respectful and I will always highly recommend them. You got 10 on all of them. I think I made a mistake because I had surgery done today, but it was excellent. They were all good.

Dr. COTLER was absolutely fantastic. He is great. I had to wait 46 minutes to be seen and I find that to be excessive I voiced my concern to him, and he was attentive and walk me out to the scheduling people to give me the best possible time for the next visit where there will not be an extended delay

I was a little disappointed after my surgery. I did not see my doctor. I had two after visits, each time a different PA. I think it would have been better for me to have Dr. Cotler, who did my surgery, see me at least once after the surgery if I had any questions.
Aug 21, 2025
My experience was positive. Dr. Cotler is patient, answers all of my questions and explains everything so I understand. The staff is pleasant, and accommodating. Overall, a wonderful experience. Thank you.

Great overall experience with Dr Cotler. Always felt confident in his ability and knowledge. Great staff all around for my surgery from the anesthesiologist to all the nurses as well. Everyone treated me with kindness and care.
Jul 28, 2025
Overall, a good experience. Most of the preliminary work was done by PAs so time with the doctor was limited but we covered all we needed to.

Dr. Cotler was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Extremely compassionate, committed and competent. I was very impressed and he went above and beyond in explaining my problem and I will see him again in two months to review my situation.

My comment has nothing to do about the exam. Just this after, visit surveys. Excessive and annoying. Bye.

He has a very compassionate and kind way of helping you learn and figure out realistic and attainable ways to better health! My husband and I both feel Blessed that Dr Cotler was his surgeon!!!! We highly recommend him!!!!

He came in. Barely listened and started walking out after he said get an mri. I had questions I wanted to ask and he left. No discussion on follow up. Made me feel like a number. Not a human.

This young doctor went out of his way to provide almost daily visits to treat my excision of a sebaceous cyst
Jun 19, 2025
Dr. Cotler listened to everything I said. Double checked my CT scan. And found a hernia that the radiologist did not pick up on. He was very kind and explained everything. And that would definitely recommend him to anybody.
