I've been a long time patient and yet when I see him, he never seems like he's given even a quick once over of my previous history .. I find it hard to communicate with him as he can be very short ,, like another reviewer said ..he doesn't want to hear what you say ,, just yes or no ,,, .. He can be curt. He doesn't listen .. ..no patience ,, also have had errors more than once with blood work results .The only good thing I can say is he is fairly prompt ,,, probably because he's rushing everyone out , perhaps if he added 5-7 min to each appointment,, and took 3 min to look over a patient's chart before he saw them ...he would have more satisfied patients

Dr Gary Cohen has a Horrible Bed Side Manner . He has no compassion & he lacks empathy . He doesn't listen to what the patience 's needs are in medical help Especially with a Medical condition & blood work .

He is always on time, to the minute. He listens, asks, examines and advises. I'm surprised at how much time he spends and the level of concern shown. I am amazed how anyone could here could have given a negative review.

Dr. Cohen has been my PCP for (too long) 5+ years. At our initial meeting he asked a medical question pertaining to my health, when I began to answer he said, "Yes or No is sufficient". He hardly ever talks and when he does it is only a health closed end question. When I phoned the office and without saying his name, referring to him as THE MUTE the girl knew exactly who I was referring to.

THIS MAN THINKS HE IS ALL KNOWING AND DOESN'T CARE TO LISTEN TO HIS PATIENTS. IT'S HIS WAY OR THE HIGHWAY. DEFINATELY HAS A GOD COMPLEX. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME WITH HIM

Well i called his office with some questions , and never got the answer, but whoever i talked to decided to start booking an appointment for me. When i said that i just need to know how much certain services will cost with my insurance she simply hung up.
