Michael Cohen is a superior professional - he is one of your super stars. His knowledge of his field is of the highest order and his willingness to refer where needed is always present. Michael is close to the end of his career - you would be wise to do everything in your power to keep him treating patients. I have no skin in your game or his - I just speak as a patient who knows good care and professionalism -Michael delivers that and has always done so.
