From the moment I scheduled my appointment, I was very happy with everything. The staff was so nice and helpful, I was able to download the new patient packet off of their website and fill it out at home prior to my visit, their office is beautiful and very clean, dr cohen is very nice, patient, and takes his time with you. I was so scared before my surgery and didn't want to have it but after trying everything, surgery was my last resort and I can't even explain the relief I felt immediately after surgery. It's the greatest feeling in the world to be living again without back pain and I owe it all to him. I am so grateful. Thank you Dr. Cohen.

I got neck surgery with Dr Cohen and he was the only doctor that I found that would perform my surgery endoscopically. He is truly an artist of his craft. He made me feel so comfortable and I feel great! Never thought I'd be pain free ever again, but thanks to him I am. Best doctor around!

I had seen at least five doctors before choosing Dr. Cohen to do a cervical fusion on my neck. The day of my surgery Dr. Cohen came to the hospital calm and relaxed, ( not rushed), which helped me to relax. My neck was severely herniated on two levels, suffice to say I was messed up, Dr. Cohen did a splendid job on my neck. I wish I knew of Dr. Cohen when I had my shoulder operation . I would recommend him to my family and friends, because I know they would be in the best of hands. I am team Dr. Cohen!

I had minimally invasive surgery with Dr. Cohen on my low back and I went home able to walk the same day and was able to return to work in a week on full duties. The other surgeon I saw before Dr. Cohen said it would take me 6 months to recover from surgery. Thank god I made the right choice and got surgery here instead. Dr. Cohen is a life saver.

I love dr cohen. I never felt rushed like every other doctor makes you feel and he took his time with me when it was my turn. Yes you may wait a little in the waiting room, but it's only because he provides quality over quantity. And his office is absolutely beautiful and so incredibly clean you can eat off the floor. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND him to everyone.

Biography

Marc A. Cohen, M.D., is a renowned surgeon in conventional spinal procedures and a leader in minimally invasive micro spine surgery and endoscopic laser spine surgery, a revolutionary alternative to traditional fusion procedures. Dr. Cohen performs all spine-related surgeries, turning frequently to minimally invasive procedures when conservative treatment has been exhausted. While there are many practitioners who claim to be experts in minimally invasive laser spine surgery, only to steer patients towards traditional surgery. Dr. Cohen is the “real deal”, having performed over 1,000 laser procedures. His “super specialist” status has drawn patients from around the country, and he currently is a top spine surgeon in New Jersey using lasers to treat complex spinal injuries and conditions. He consistently has achieved excellent results over the past 20 years, and performed hundreds of laser surgeries since incorporating the technique into his practice. His experience as a surgeon, combined with his passion and caring as a medical doctor, is likely why so many of Dr. Cohen’s patients are grateful of his work. To complement his comprehensive training in the surgical treatment of spinal disorders, Dr. Cohen studied abroad with the pioneers of minimally invasive spinal procedures and laser spine surgery. He continues to augment his knowledge base and seek newer, more advanced methods to provide his patients with safer, more reliable, and more affordable options. His efforts have enabled him to greatly enhance his surgical abilities and decision-making and provide a higher level of individualized care. Dr. Cohen is a lifelong learner who constantly seeks new knowledge and strives to offer the latest and greatest procedures at his practice. Board certified in spinal surgery, Dr. Cohen is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons and the American College of Spine Surgery, a diplomate of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons and the American Board of Spine Surgery, and a member of many professional organizations. He is affiliated with Morristown Memorial Hospital and Saint Clare’s Riverside Medical Center. Dr. Cohen attended Emory University in Georgia and then received his medical degree from The Chicago Medical School. He completed an internship and residency at Montefiore Medical Center/Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and a spine fellowship at the Hospital for Special Surgery, Cornell Medical Center and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
