Dr. Deborah Coen, MD

I have loved working with Dr. Coen.

This doctor is a fraud. She has a private practice that is selective on who is treated. Phony. She does not deserve to be in the Psychiatric field.

Very thorough - very impressed with the time taken to make an initial assessment

Dr. Coen knew what condition I was coming in for when I made my appointment. Her website explicitly said she treated my condition as well. She did a 90 minute intake ($450) with me, even after the fact that 5 minutes in (as well as throughout) I reitterated what condition I was there for. And then at the end of 90 minutes she said to me "Oh, well, I don't treat that condition (outside of prescribing meds), you'll have to find another practitioner." I am appauled. She shouldn't have let me book the appointment, let alone let me continue after we discussed it again and again starting 5 minutes in.

I was very disappointed in my visit with Dr Coen. I went to her for help and I ended up no better off than when I first went to see her. It took a lot for me to make that first phone call. I found it curious she required two 90 minute medical evaluation appointments before even talking about getting a prescription. She got way off topic during the first visit and wasted at least 30 minutes of my time. But I am the one who gets penalized for it! It seems she is out to bill as much as she can. Typically, a psychiatrist can complete a medical eval in ONE 30 to 60 minute visit. I found this very suspicious. After both visits she still did nothing to help me. I cancelled all subsequent appointments with her and will never seek help again for this type of service. She turned me off from the whole experience. Also, I didn't understand the purpose of the 1980's boom box playing static out in her waiting room. It was very unwelcoming and just plain odd. Very unsatisfied customer here. ):

I have been working with Dr. Coen for several years. She is an excellent psychiatrist. She is smart and compassionate. She is also a good listener, which is something I value highly in a medical professional.

I have seen many psychiatrists, but Dr. Coen is the first one that made me feel like she really cared about me and my health. She spent significant time with me, no hurry. The office visits are never rushed and she spends as much time as is necessary. Dr. Coen is very personable and approachable. She has been patient working with me to get my medications regulated just right. I would highly recommend her.

Very caring and knowledgeable!

I've been seeing Dr Coen for ~9 months, and have been happy with her. She's always on time, spends 45+ minutes with me, and listens well. She always consults with me on when I need to come back -- she's definitely not trying to get me to visit more than I need to. What I respect most is that she talks about mental health holistically -- the need for sleep, exercise, and healthy food in addition to medication. Good reminders that too many doctors overlook. I'm frankly surprised by some of these negative reviews.

Dr Coen, is very professional and personable. She seemed to know exactly what my issue was and 3 weeks later making great progress
