Dr. Elwood Cohen

Dr Elwood Cohen is wonderfully passionate about the health and well being of his patients. He successfully treated me when I had a severe case of shingles, and also he saw me through horrid scalding burns. His great care helped me avoid skin grafts. Fforeveforever his fan!

In a 20 minute office visit, Dr. Cohen stated five times that to answer my question would take all day. In the amount of time that it took to say that, he could have answered my questions in a clear and concise manner. And his office staff is the rudest I have ever encountered!

I have been a patient of Dr. Cohen for many years. His staff is the worst I have ever seen. They are consistently rude... condescending... curt... and abrupt. Dr. Cohen doesn't seem to have any control over them. I'm done. I will never go back to his office again!

Dr. Cohen's staff are extremely rude and I am changing doctors so I don't have to deal with their attitudes. I made an appointment, received an email requesting that I confirm the appointment, which I did. When I arrived at his office I was told that wasn't the time of my appointment and I needed to leave because he had other patients. I wasn't able to come back and asked why my appointment for the time referenced in the confirming email wasn't going to be honored and they told me they did not send the email (!!!! then who did, when it clearly came from his office) and I needed to leave or they would call security. At NO TIME did they even hint at acknowledging they made a mistake. They repeatedly claimed to not have made the mistake and stated that they didn't send the email (which I showed to them). I did not receive any kind of an apology, just rude attitudes and questions why I was at the office when I didn't have an appointment. He is no longer my Dr.

My mom disliked him so much she wouldn’t go see him, only his PA whom she loved. She waited over an hour to see him and he played with his huge computer screen and ate a sandwich during their interview! He was a terrible listener and his office staff is rude and don’t pass along messages as requested. When I called to say mom had died, the office girl didn’t ask how to spell mom’s name, only date of birth and not even a single condolence. Just hung up. Glad we no longer have to deal with him.

Hi to Danya, Stephanie and Heidi. So some things can be off putting to the utterly sensitive as when I entered the office I was asked "Are you on a controlled substance?" What an interesting start to patient care. Given the opioid crisis, the question is appropriate. I took no offense in replying no. The waiting room/reading material were comfortable/ current. “Welcome aboard" from Dr. Cohen was melodic in action. Stay well up high! In life as in medicine rushing or invasive approaches are not efficacious over time. Like the tale of the hare vs. turtle and who is triumphant in the end? Flu shot? Cohen shines from within and is an astute listener, practicioner with a regal/most intuitive sense of knowing. תודה Hi to Danya, Stephanie and Heidi.

They make up their own rules when it comes to healthcare. They will abruptly stop giving you a medication that is dangerous to stop abruptly. They are a dangerous practice. When you voice your concern, Instead of treating you like an adult and speaking to you, they let their young unqualified staff who have literally never worked for any other office in their life "handle" the medical situations. So glad I left that practice. I never realized how terrible they were until I went somewhere else. Their mission is to treat you solely on their terms. If you have input they won't hear it and turn their back on you in the middle of a situation even if it causes you harm.

Like Dr. Cohen but hate his staff! They are very rude to patients.

I visited the office for treatment of documented skin cancer tumors that had become infected. I'd been treated for the same problem before by his great PA Dwayne and in urgent care. 5 minutes into the visit Dr. Cohen appeared to have forgotten my reason for being there. After, I called rite aid thinking he had phoned in a prescription. Nothing. I called the office expressing concern and was met with yet another screaming fit from Heidi, the office manager. She accused me of "making up" my cancer. Dr. Cohen phoned back and told me, without seeing it, that my biopsied squamous tumor was "probably a boil that needed to be lanced." I called my insurance company and filed a grievance against Heidi. I was "fired" from the practice out of reprisal. I see now they did me a favor. I'm now under the care of a competent, ethical doc with a staff free of blatant psych issues.

Dr. Cohen was my primary physician for 10 years and the only reason I don't see him now is because I moved! I miss him! He is a great doctor and a wonderful caring man!

Dr. Cohen is amazing however the staff he has in his office right now are horrid. I've been going for years and these girls they have now are some of the rudest receptionists I have ever encountered anywhere. Super rude, very unfriendly, and cold. Most frustrating thing ever, they are clearly there for their paycheck.

Very caring doctor

I find Dr Cohen great to work with when I have problems or questions and he doesn't insist that I always do certain things, but allows me to help make the decision. He is very caring and keeps up on my labs so I don't have problems, especially with my thyroid. My prescriptions are always called in promptly. I am grateful he is here.

Customer service is HORRIBLE! I tried to go here for a simple physical, and wanted to make Dr. Elwood my new Primary Care Physician, at the suggestion of my insurance company, as he was a recommended match for me and I was new in the area. I have NEVER been a drug user, but because I happened to break two ribs in a recent accident and was prescribed Tylenol with Codeine by the doctor who saw me at the time, the rude lady on the phone told me "she would check to see if the doctor would even see me" because of my past(!). Not only was I extremely insulted by this accusation from someone whom I have never so much as met in person, but then, they never even called me back either way to let me know! Horrible, horrible, customer service and rude treatment. Boo!!! Customer service is HORRIBLE!

Dr Cohen office staff unwilling to verify insursnce for me another provider verifyed my insurance for me and I was seen 2 days later.

I went to Dr. Cohen for two years. I cannot imagine how people could give him a bad review. He is one of the best physicians I have had. I found him to be caring, efficient and knowledgeable. He helped me to feel very well, even though I was seventy yrs.old, with a bad back and neck, and bad feet. I moved away and had to leave him, but am moving back now and will definitely become his patient once again. I went to Dr. Cohen for two years.

This is just another Doctor that has forgotten the Hippocratic oath He swore. As he checked my pulse I told him I wanted to make an appointment for a general physical. He smiled sourly and stated "what do you think I just did?" -Not the kind of physical you give someone that has type 1 diabetes for over 40 years. I'd stay away from this morally bankrupt Doctor if you care about getting well.

Arrogant and as focused as a fluorescent bulb, Dr. Cohen leaves much to be desired.

He is the best doctor I've ever met. He is very knowledgeable and he actually CARES about his patients. Hard to find a doctor who cares about his patients these days.

No review , trying to de delete error!

I've been a patient of Doctor Cohen for 3 years now. I've been through 10+ doctors in the past 7 years, trying to find a doctor that would actually spend more than 5 minutes with me and not just throw medication at my problem. If you are like me, you don't have a lot of choices due to being on an HMO plan. You'll find that almost every doctor you go to is bought and paid for by pharmaceutical companies. Got a headache? Physical pain? Depression? Here are 10 different pills for you to take! Drugging you up, and sending you on your intoxicated way. This may sound like an exaggeration, but until you have dealt with neck and spinal injuries, or some other form of serious medical problem, you cannot begin to fathom the frustration. And this is why I like Cohen. If you come to him and you bring all of your knowledge regarding your injuries / medical issues, then he will work with you to try different treatments. His last resort is narcotics and medications, if it can be helped. If you go to Cohen and are bothered by long waits, then don't bother. He often spends ACTUAL 1 on 1 time with his patients. But you must be adamant about your condition, and you should arrive with some knowledge on effective treatments. This way you can work together with Cohen to decide what is best. As for the mixed reviews on Cohen? Maybe theses are opposing forces that want Cohen's office to sink ship. Cohen is clear about his method of avoiding narcotics, which big pharma doesn't like. Maybe the reviews are legitimate. But I've never had an issue with Cohen, he is a great doctor. No need to give HIM negative reviews if his staff are doing a poor job. He is the doctor after all, and you often must work through bad staff to get to the end goal. I've been a patient of Doctor Cohen for 3 years now.

Bad now. Heidi, office staff person in charge of referrals, authorizations, medication refills, lab orders and other orders supposed to be sent to facilities were not done. I had to call Scan to get them to call Heidi to get her to do these issues, as she was not doing them. Heidi got angry with me, due to this and retaliated to me by telling me I was no longer a patient there, and said Regal, Scan and myself would receive a letter "firing" me. The doctor's, when I spoke to them, said they had no problem with me, but was tired of the staff always arguing and Heidi was so nasty to me, and would hang up on me if I tried to make an appointment. Today I tried to make an appointment at Cohen's, Heidi answered, I tole her I wanted an appointment, she said I was no longer a patient and hung up on me. I had put in a grievance with Scan about her and she is retaliating against me. Heidi also retaliated against me when I would have Scan call her about the referrals, and named above issues and she said Regal, Scan and myself would get a letter I was no longer a patient. I spoke to the doctors and they are fine with me, it is Heidi. No one has received such letter of termination for me, Regal Medical Group, Scan Insurance or myself, and I spoke to a Scan advocate today, and Regal, and the grievance administrator and no such letter has been received by anyone. So the Scan advocate grievance lady, Carmen and my Scan advocate are trying to fix this, due to Heidi. They said no one has received such a termination letter for me and it is only Heid, Cohen's staff person that is not letting me see my doctor. Scan has never seen anything like this and doing their best to resolve this so I can get medical care. So, I used to rate Cohen's office 5 stars but now, I am so sick and upset I will rate it -star! So, Dr. Cohen is OK with me, Dwayne Lehman, PA is OK with me, it is Heidi and no one can get past Heidi to speak to the docs. It is so unprofessional, and I have spoken to three people at Rite Aid who have experienced the same problem. I am 67 years old, and cannot take much more,, and want to stay with these doctors.

I can't understand other review.. I have found Doc. Cohen to be knowledgeable and, caring. He takes his time and listens. I have complete trust in him. Very occasionally, there has been some minor communication miscues with staff, but those folks are caring, too (though very busy)..
