Dr. Cohen was very pleasant and made me feel at ease. He answered my questions and has a good ‘bedside manner’.

Dr Cohen is amazing doctor. My husband had surgery for detached retina. Dr Cohen saved his eyesight. I recently had an issue with floaters and flashes of light on my left eye. I wasn’t sure if I was experiencing a detached retina. I called the first thing in the morning to see if I could get an appointment as soon as possible and I was able to get in to see him that day. What a relief after all the testing they did, I didn’t have a major issue. I would highly recommend Dr Cohen and the entire practice is awesome.

I cannot say enough about the way Dr Cohen cares for the eyes. He is remarkably attentive, kind, knowledgeable and if you’re looking for a fantastic retinal specialist, look no further. I recently had a vitrectomy on my right eye and I am over the moon pleased with the results. The eye now sees as though it was brand new. trust him completely with my eyes. My eyes love him.

I had been with my previous ophthalmologist for 22 years, so finding a new one and going to a first appointment gave me a LOT of apprehension. I’m very happy to say that those feelings were very quickly eased as I went through the appointment and conversed with the staff and doctor. They thoroughly exceeded my hopes and expectations and I’m SO relieved to find them. Not only were they knowledgeable and professional, but I really liked the way Dr. Cohen thoroughly explained things to me and showed me pictures of my retinas, while explaining how to interpret those pictures. I feel very safe in their care and to me that’s everything. Since you’re probably reading this because you’re looking for an ophthalmologist, I would like to warn you off a group called Robson. They are a nightmare of medial administrative incompetence and the reason that I’m now with Dr. Cohen.

I have a complicated history of retinal detachment with macula off requiring multiple surgeries. After 1 year at another practice, I presented for a 2cnd opinion and transferred my care. Dr. Cohen is truly an expert in his field. He has patience in providing a thorough explanation of diagnoses, options and plan of care. I have the utmost of confidence in his knowledge and care!

Dr. Cohen granted me emergency care, although I am a patient at another location. My eyes were stinging so badly I could hardly see. I thought my eyes hadn't been irrigated enough after treatment two days before. I would use his practice if it were closer to me!

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Cohen and his team. Dr. Cohen was amazing, compassionate, and took his time with me. He was incredibly gentle while performing my retinal assessment, which made me feel comfortable and reassured throughout the entire visit. The young lady who assisted me was also wonderful. She explained everything to me before doing anything, which helped me feel much less anxious. I truly appreciate the kindness, patience, and care I received from everyone. I highly recommend Dr. Cohen and his team!

Dr. Cohen demonstrated a high level of professionalism and patience at my first Consultation ...., on a 14-year near-blind Right-Eye. I am looking forward to a long and productive relationship with Dr. Cohen, and greatly appreciate his help, and his immediate focus/interest on the key issues. I take this opportunity to thank Dr. Cohen again.

My experience with Dr. Cohen and his office staff never waivers. I have been treated by Dr. Cohen since 2019 and am happy to say that my eyesight has remained stable since that time. I have experienced absolutely no loss of sight and am very thankful and grateful to him for this. Going to his office for treatment is very comfortable due in large part to his warm and caring staff. Their efficiency is also very much appreciated.
