Leeber Cohen, MD

You will wait forever in this office.
He’s lovely once you do get to see him, but this is not the place to go if you are a busy person, or are having any urgent eye issues.

I called Dr. Cohen’s office on June 5^th because I noticed a change in my eyesight and was told they were not making appointments until July. I asked if they would call me if there were any cancellations and was told, «We don’t do that, you have to call us.» I called again the next week and spoke with somebody else and explained my predicament and asked if they would call me. Again I was told that I would have to call them. Alarmed at the symptoms I was having, I made an appointment with another eye doctor who saw me immediately when he heard my symptoms. I was then diagnosed with a very aggressive case of macular degeneration and was told by the retinal specialist that I got to him «just in the nick of time.»
I find the conduct of Dr. Leeber Cohen’s office staggeringly unprofessional and I will never go back to him. I was told by the eye doctor I saw that I was very lucky I didn’t lose my eyesight.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Cohen for over 15 years now and he’s just great. Very thorough, great listener and wonderful bedside manner. I feel like i’m in good hands with him. Highly recommend, he’s a real professional.

Dr. Cohen is awesome.
o Actually listens to you
o Smart diagnostician
o Very thorough, you never feel rushed
o Wonderful bedside (chairside?) manner

Organized office with efficient staff.
The waiting room is mostly full but wait is not. One of the reasons might be how efficient Dr. Cohen operates his office. He records his assessment (and dingoes or concerns if any) precisely to his small voice recorder (many in his drawer) while I am sitting in a room with him. Recording (writing) by staff later. It helps to understand my condition and his concern clearly at the same time. I am very pleased to find him.
