All I can say is that this man saved my daughters life by taking a tumor out of her brain. What we thought were just hedaches turned out to be our worst nightmare. At the hospital, Dr. Anders Cohen was called in to see her. I can't say enough about his bedside manner and patience. He showed us the MRIs and made sense out of everything. I felt instantly confident with him. My girl is fine now and there is no sign of any new tumor. We say a prayer for the good doctor on the holidays and on her birthday. Me and my family only hope that others may be as blessed with his care if it is needed.

I had long standing cervical stenosis with numbness in my hands. I had 6 surgical opinions with different options. They all recommended surgery. When I consulted Dr. Anders Cohen, there were 2 patients in the waiting room who had similiar diagnosis and were already operated on by him. They both were extremely pleased with their results and praised him. Dr. Cohen was pleasant and explained my disease process in great detail. He recommended a posterior decompression with fusion. This was in accordance with 2 of the other opinions. I chose him and the whole experience was top notch. New York Hospital is an amazing institution and the staff was great. My surgery only took 1 1/2 hours and I left the hospital 2 days later. My hands continue to improve each day. My incision, according to my wife, is "artwork". I join in with the other 2 patients in giving Dr. Anders Cohen an A+ for his skills and personality.

This doctor was 2 and half hours late for the appointment, he never examined me. Refused to look at my discogram findings or any of the information I was asked to bring to the office. He could not give me any information because I did not have a CAT Scan. He never gave me a script for a CAT Scan, but said he would call me and discuss what diagnosis/prognosis after he received the CAT Scan. It took his office 25 days to get an authorization for a CAT Scan! Th I phoned several times, emailed etc. Once Cat Scan was performed and sent overnite Dr. Cohen NEVER phoned with results of CAT Scan, refused to order pain medications, never gave me ANY information. I had to make another appointment to get the results. 3 weeks later, he looked at the Cat Scan two minutes before seeing me. Now there was an issue of an MRI- the whole thread started all over. He was going to phone me after reviewing the MRI. That was 2 weeks ago. I do not know how knowledgeable he is no diagnosis was made.
