I have been so happy with our experience with Dr. Madan Cohen. I always feel like she truly listens to what is going on with my son, and is open to any suggestions I have. My son has seen so many providers over the years, and one of the things I value most is when I do not feel like we are being rushed through an appointment. When we see Dr. Madan Cohen, I never feel like she is rushing through an appointment, and I always feel like we have her undivided attention, which is so important. She understands that my son is unique, and she not only thinks outside the box for him, but really makes me feel like she appreciates his complexities, which is a very validating feeling a a parent. We are very, very grateful for her and the entire neuro department!

Couldn't be more grateful to Dr. Cohen. She spent 45 minutes with us, answered all our questions, observed our daughter and provided the prescription needed. To sum it up, she's AMAZING! Thank you, Dr. Cohen.
