Two knee replacements in 6 weeks. 8 weeks out from my first and I already feel like a new person. I have my life back. Dr Cohen was professional and more importantly, kind, throughout the entire process. His staff before and after surgery were all amazing. Even the two drivers who drove me home were wonderful. Im very happy with my decision to have Dr cohen and his team at university perform my tkrs.

Dr. Cohen and his team were excellent for my dual hip replacement! I felt like I was taken care with professionalism and kindness. Each step of the way was easy to follow and the support at the office was great! I’d highly recommend Dr. Cohen to anyone who asked!!
