Review for Dr. Cohen

I’ve gone to Dr Belanger for 2 prior knee surgeries (menicus repair & ACL reconstruction.). So when I started to have knee pain on the other knee I knew exact who I wanted to treat me. He’s very through and listened to my concerns. We made a plan of treatment and will take it from there.
