Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Cohen is the best. He Has patience, kind and he listens. He still had a passion for medicine. I highly recommend him if you have any foot issues.

Dr. Cohen came highly recommended to me. He did a bunion surgery for my friend and she had great results. I had the same surgery in July. I cannot begin to express my gratitude for him. I’m able to wear flip flops again and my pain is gone!

I consulted Dr. Cohen for several months before electing for surgery with a surgeon he recommended which was much closer to my house (and I LOVE her, she did an amazing job). He had my best interests in mind the entire time and made me feel comfortable about the lapidus procedure. Dr. Cohen is very analytical and thoughtful about his opinions and made me feel like I was really talking to an expert. If I lived closer I definitely would have done the surgery with him but there are MANY follow up

Dr. Scott Cohen is a true professional that knows his stuff. He takes time to listen and genuinely seems to care about his patients. He has always been very knowledgeable and thorough with myself and my husband during our visits. I would highly recommend him.

This was my first encounter with a DPM. Unfortunately, hindsight is 20/20 and I wish I would have went with a more seasoned practitioner. On the 1st visit I needed to have my toenail removed and he had a medical assistant attempt to inject my toe with lidocaine. As a Registered Nurse I find it hard to believe that it is legal for a MA to perform a digital ring block on the great toe. In most states you have to be an anesthesia provider or a APRN to perform that procedure independently.
