Scott L Cohen's Online Review Report Card

Dr Cohen is an amazing PCP. I’ve been with him for decades and never had a better doctor take care of me!

Dr. Cohen was our family doctor for almost 20 years while our children grew up. We moved to NJ 4 years ago and we have not been able to find a doctor who is as compassionate and thorough as he always was with us! Excellent physician!

Efficient Effective Warm Cordial Professional

I have been Dr. Cohen's patient for close to 20 years, but today was the last time I was visiting. I scheduled an appointment with him 3 weeks ago, came in to the office 15 minutes early, because regardless what the appointment time is, he never will see you on time. Ever! The wait times are usually quite long, on average 10-15 minutes in the waiting area and then another 30-45 minutes in the room before he comes in for like 5-10 minutes to talk to you. It is always a difficult proposition to make an appointment. And the worst part of today's visit, I really did not need to see him. All I wanted is to refill on a prescription. But he would not authorize a refill unless he sees me. After waiting for 40+ minutes in the room, I went upfront, told them that I cannot wait any longer and asked for my co-pay refund. And left.

You can see my review in WebMD but I read another website where a woman recieved a letter from his office where he cancelled her care with him. Guess what I received my letter today. So during my phone call he told me to find another doctor because I asked for an MRI when the Diagnosis he gave me couldn't be found in an x-ray. I took the meds that didn't help. I would not do PT since the Delta covid at an office could be transferred. He told me to go to an Orthopedic Dr but offered no Dr for me to check. He did that last year without offering a specialist name. When he said he doesn't have people who come to him who don't like him. Well now I know why because he sends you a letter to terminate you. Maybe he should read reviews online. Where is Jefferson Health checking patients who need help. Pathetic

I went to Dr Cohen about pain in back and leg. He Says" oh my last patient had the same thing". Take this med & salinpas. Contact me next week if problem. I think,"good it will take the pain away". It did nothing. I contact office that Monday. They Dr says do PT and muscle relaxer. Well if Dr thought the dx is nerve I asked office staff will it help my nerve pain. They say no. During Delta covid times I'm not going to PT office. So here I am looking for treatment of herniated disc but get Dr Cohen tell me another pill & the PT idea. I questioned taking another pill when he still doesn't know what I have as a dx. Then says get x-ray. I go to hospital for x-ray and he doesn't fill out the type of x-ray accurately so they can't perform it. I call office to get my care corrected. I have now been in excruciating pain for 10 days in back radiating down my leg. I call to speak with Cohen and office staff wouldn't let me. They say go to an Orthopedic Dr. For what dx? Dr Cohen hasn't determined or Eliminated the herniated disc yet. He won't get me an MRI/cat scan but that's what I read can dx the condition. So I said to office person I need to talk to Cohen. He calls and after 8 days his dx hasn't been eliminated yet. Then says," go to orthopedic or PT. I explain again why I'm not going to a PT building because of Covid. He says no you can go! What!!!. But he says 5 times," you need to find another Dr" After 30 years I have been going to the Richboro office and the REAL care is nowhere to be found with Dr Cohen.

I'll be like the lady on the review list here of don't come here. You can't verify his decision with questions. He'd rather just get rid of you instead of performing correct and accurate care

I never got a return phone call today regarding appointment I have tomorrow with a specialist and I called the office twice today from work and was told i would get a phone call back which I never did. I will be switching practices .

Excellent, knowledgeable, compassionate, friendly physician!!!

Dr. cohen is a caring doctor once you get to see him. However, the front desk does not allow for emergencies. If you call up with a serious problem and there are no openings in the appointment book, you will not be seen. What good is a primary care doctor who will not see you in time of crisis?
