Dr. Paul Cohen is a fellowship-trained Clinical Neuropsychologist and Concussion Specialist at OrthoNC.
Dr. Cohen is a native North Carolinian, born and raised in the Tar Heel State. He earned a Bachelor’s degree from the University of North Carolina- Chapel Hill, where he was a member of the Varsity Cheerleading team. After graduation, Dr. Cohen received a Master’s degree in Experimental Psychology from Georgia Southern University. Realizing he wanted to pursue a clinical career, Dr. Cohen earned another Master’s degree and a Doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology from Loyola University Maryland. It was during graduate school that Dr. Cohen began to focus on Neuropsychology. With an interest in sports medicine as well as brain functioning, concussion management was a natural fit, perfectly melding two of Dr. Cohen’s passions- sports and the brain.
Dr. Cohen completed an APA-accredited internship at Tulane University School of Medicine. He then completed a 2-year post-doctoral fellowship in neuropsychology at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) Sports Medicine Concussion Program. Training directly with field leaders and the creators of ImPACT, Dr. Cohen was part of the concussion management team for the Pitt Panthers, Pittsburgh Penguins, and Pittsburgh Steelers.
Dr. Cohen believes that concussion is a treatable injury, and has a passion for helping patients of all ages recover from concussions. Throughout his career, he has managed over 4,000 patients with concussions, ranging from Workers’ Comp injuries to MVC, and from youth athletes to NFL All-Stars and Olympians. Dr. Cohen enjoys learning about each patient as a whole person, and helping everyone get back to the activities they enjoy as quickly- and as safely- as possible.
Outside of clinical practice, Dr. Cohen is very involved in furthering the practice of concussion management. He has been an invited speaker to a variety of audiences on the topic of concussion, and has published research in multiple peer-reviewed journals and textbooks. Dr. Cohen is very involved in Sports Neuropsychology Society (SNS) having held multiple leadership positions for the international organization.
After living and training all over the country, Dr. Cohen is thrilled to be settled back in North Carolina with his family, and enjoys watching sports, running marathons, and being outdoors.

Very thorough.
Excellent very informative
Very patient and nice
Very caring, attentive and thorough
I have been to Dr Cohen a couple of times and I find his bedside manner rude. He discounts a parent’s input on their child’s condition. He never seems to have a clue what the problem is, but proceeds to treat symptoms with bandaid fixes. For a concussion specialist I have found his expertise lacking. He’s always seeing you once and never following up to make sure you are getting better, and if you question his method —because you aren’t getting better—he considers it a threat and tells you to follow up with someone else. If you don’t know, just say so, refer. Be a responsible doc, speak to their other providers for a more accurate picture of someone’s health before just treating symptoms. Follow up in X months to make sure the care is working. I just feel he doesn’t care about patients or their families.
Had a great experience with Dr Cohen and would highly recommend !!
