Harvey D Cohen, MD

Yes, everyone usually has to wait, no matter what nationality, and just because you arrive first, doesn’t mean you see the doctor in that order. We take my Dad to see him and Dr. Cohen is very caring and concerned about his health and how he is being cared for. He does spend a lot of time with you, which is hard to find now a days, and is why you have to wait. So it depends upon if you want a doctor who comes in and spends 5 minutes with you and sends you on your way or not.

I visited Dr. Cohen for the first time yesterday and I absolutely LOVED my consultation. Mr. Cohen was informative, helpful, understanding, he took his time with me, prescribed me every medicine I required, and did the BEST job any doctor could do. I recommend him to everyone. Mr. Cohen is the by far the GREATEST DOCTOR I have ever met in my entire life.

I waited 4 hrs. on this doctor on my first visit! As thorough as he is, it’s a total turnoff & I’m debating if I’ll ever come back. Even after he came in & asked about my medical history, I waited another 30 minutes for him to come back in for my actual physical exam. While I am posting this, I have been in his office for very close to 5 hrs. Just ridiculous! He needs a better plan because this is unacceptable. I only stayed because it’s been too long since I’ve seen a general practitioner & needed to get established with a regular doctor. It’s been like going to another job! So unprofessional & not cool!

OMG! Dr Cohen is the best Dr I have ever been to… I never minded the wait because he always took the time with me. I knew if he was running late it was because he was really taking the time to help someone. LOVE DR COHEN. Unfortunately I have Kaiser now, but I have paid cash just for him to review my test results and get his opinion. The idea of him being a races is crazy, maybe those people were there to see the therapist in his office or had a urgent need.

I wanted to respond to the previous Unilocaler’s comment about the race discrimination going on at Dr. Cohen’s office. I think that is a ridiculous comment. I am Caucasian, and on any of my previous appointments, I have always waited close to two hours. Waiting that long is really crazy, but I guess people put up with that because he is a wonderful doctor and really knows his stuff. Sadly my insurance changed and I can no longer see Dr. Cohen. But I have to say, I wont miss those crazy wait times.

Took my elderly mom to see him. We waited for almost 2 hours. When he did come in (he knew we had great insurance) he spoke with her briefly 3 mins and then proceeded to order every possible lab test and exam… these were not necessary… will never go back… don’t waste your time or insurance coverage here.

After my wife saw the bad review of Dr. Cohen from «fusionjaz» and brought it to my attention, I was compelled to come on here and write my second ever review.
I’m shocked to hear that someone would say that Dr. Cohen is racist against asians and you should only go there if you are, Quote «caucasian». Dr. Cohen is one of the most caring open minded doctors that I have had the pleasure of being in the care of.
Dr. Cohen is one of the best doctors that I have visited in quite a while. I was really worried about a couple of facets of my health and he took a lot of time to delve into everything that I brought to him. It wasn’t the usually greeting and dismissal that I have become so used to at the doctors. He went above and beyond for me and I hope to be under his care for a long time to come.
My wife (who is asian, if it really matters) is also a patient of Dr. Cohen’s and feels the same way that I do. I have never in my life had such comprehensive and attentive care as I did at Cohen’s office. It was a breath of fresh air that Cohen actually spent alot of time with me and was very thorough with everything that he did.
No.. . he did not just crank out patients so that everyone would be seen super quick and not receive the quality care that they should.
Did I wait in the reception room? ya, for about 25 or 30 minutes.. .. . big deal.. .. I’d gladly do it again to see such a professional and personal doctor. In fact, i’d wait much longer than that to see Dr. Cohen.
People need to grow up and realize that they are not entitled to anything that their heart desires. Coming on Unilocal and falsely calling someone a racist because you actually had to wait for something in your life is absolutely cowardly and shameful.

This office is (sadly) still open. Don’t know why Unilocal has marked it closed. Perhaps it might as well be to fellow Unilocalers here looking for a local geriatrics doctor specializing in stroke patients.
This doctor was recommended by a speech therapist at a local rehabilitation facility. We scheduled an appointment time of 2÷8÷11 for 4:45pm three (3) weeks prior. Since he specializes in these areas, we wanted him to treat my mother who had a stroke in November.
Come the day of appointment (today) we got there early, prepared with our pre-​completed registration forms. After one hour wait, two guys walked in after our arrival and were sent right in to see Dr. Cohen. Another hour later, we were still waiting. We asked why the two previous guys were sent in when they arrived way after we did. (They were Caucasian, we were Asian, elderly.) We were told we were scheduled for the last appointment for the day. YET, the 2 caucasians went in before us (who arrived an hour after we did). What’s wrong with this picture? Clearly, it was clear discrimination. Moreover, we had a scheduled time of 4:45. But waiting over two hours? No doctor is worth that.
Don’t go to this doctor if you’re anything but Caucasian. Clearly, they discriminate which patients they see first. This doctor services several other hospitals too. So, he’s hardly in this office treating patients. IF you can even get an appointment — the next hurdle is IF you’ll even be seen.
We just took our paperwork and left. This was just our first appointment. We’ve never met this doctor. After this huge injustice of discrimination, clearly we won’t be back again. Apparently, Dr. Cohen’s office staff are trained to disgrace new patients. They don’t even call you to clear up any misunderstandings. #Unprofessional #Fail
