My choice of Dr. Cohen as a plastic surgeon was one of luck. I ws in the ER, a Pit Bull had torn my arm up, and he was the physician on call. So we did not have the luxury of choosing how exactly we were going to proceed, as in a planned plastic surgery. We had to address what the dog had destroyed. Ultimately, I had to have two surgeries to restore my arm. Dr. Cohen explained everything before hand, gave me alternate approaches, and answered all of my questions. He is very careful and meticulous. I am more than pleased with his work. He did an excellent job and I am very happy with the results! I would recommend him very enthusiastically to anyone needing plastic surgery.
Sincerely

Dr. Cohen is one of the most professional and dedicated doctors I've ever met. I not only feel well cared for but he always shows true sincere compassion. Having suffered a serious injury due to an auto accident, Dr. Cohen was able to do his "magic" and made what could have been a horrible life long scar, nearly unnoticeable!! There are no words to describe his talents and professionalism. He is truly the best of the best! I have, and would recommend him to anyone!

Dr. Cohen,
Seven months ago my face was seriously cut from above the eye to the lower jaw. In places the wound was both severely fragmented and deep. I expected to have a lasting highly noticeable scar. Instead, your three hours of Saturday morning surgery at the hospital have left only minimal scarring which, unless someone looks closely, goes largely unnoticed. I have appreciated not only the skill with which you repaired my wound, but the weekend follow-up and your friendly, likable personality. I also appreciated the friendliness of your staff. Thanks,

Hi Mary,
I just saw Dr. Cohen's "Not Vanity Surgery" article on the website. I must say it is wonderful and so very true.
I can't tell you how many hours I spent in prayer wrestling with my decision to have the augmentation and lift. I was so programmed, from my conservative upbringing, that plastic surgery was just for vanity reasons. I am so very happy that I finally came to the right decision and did what was right for me, regardless of what others might think. It has made an unbelievable difference in my attitude toward myself. It has made me love myself again and recommit myself to exercise and living a healthy life, which in turn, sets a great example for my kids.
I had given up on myself prior to surgery. I have no doubt that I was "led" to your office. In all my research, something kept bringing me back to Dr. Cohen's website, until I finally set up a consultation. I had seen one other PS (whom I had used to remove a mole on my nose a year earlier), prior to meeting Dr. Cohen. I left his office feeling very unsettled. He just gave me the willies. LOL! I knew from the minute I met Dr. Cohen that he was the PS for me. I was very comfortable in his presence and I certainly didn't feel that with the other surgeon I had seen.
Anyway, I said all that to say this. I just wanted to thank you guys again for everything!
I'll see you next month at my post-op visit.

P.S. Tell Dr. Cohen that I still maintain that I am a small C cup. LOL! ;)
Dear Dr. Cohen,
It is with sincere gratitude that I write you this letter of appreciation for the excellent job in which you handled my case as well as the results of my procedure.
As you know, I came to you with an extremely complicated situation. I had a breast augmentation 22 years ago. A year ago, I decided it was time for a revision. As a career professional, I pride myself in my ability to do research and arrive at sound decisions. It was suggested to me that I look outside of the United States to have my surgery. At first, I was adamantly against the idea. Then I started researching the idea and, after several months of thorough investigation which included interviews and recommendations, I made a decision to have my surgery done in Costa Rica. Within a month following surgery, I knew there was something not quite right. I immediately contacted the surgeon via email and was told to wait 6 months. They assured me that, if additional surgery was needed, they would take care of it. I contacted the surgeon 10 months after my surgery and emailed photos of the obvious problems; at which time, I was told that they could do no more for me. As you can imagine, I was devastated. I had no recourse whatsoever and, at that point, no desire to leave the country and pursue the situation with the surgeon who displayed such a lack of professionalism, integrity and skill.
I made the decision to start looking into surgeons in Phoenix. After researching the internet and reviewing publications, I made an appointment with your office for a consultation. One of the strongest points of interest to me before meeting you and your team was your website. In my opinion, it is the most comprehensive of all websites I have researched. Not only do the photos speak for themselves, but the knowledge that you analyze each patient as to their individual needs and tailor your surgical techniques accordingly, helped bolster my confidence in your skills and creative approach. Additionally, your testimonials and surveys spoke volumes of you, Mary and your entire staff.
Right from the start your knowledge and professionalism impressed me. You acknowledged my "complex" case but assured me that you would be able to perform the surgery necessary to see marked improvement. You were also careful to thoroughly explain all the medical possibilities. As you know, my research did not stop there; due to my past experience, I had many concerns. Through patience and understanding, both you and Mary answered all my questions and gently carried me through the decision-making process.
Although my situation has proven to be as "complex" as you had stated it would be, you Mary, and your entire team have been by my side the entire time. I am 49 years old and in my lifetime I have had many surgical and medical procedures. I can honestly say I have never been more impressed with a medical professional as I have been with you. Business is business, but, setting that aside, your bedside manner is the best I have ever encountered. Your artistic ability only enhances your surgical teclmiques. In the consultation period, at one point you stated, "until I get inside of your breast I won't know exactly what I am going to encounter so you are going to have to trust in my experience and judgment" which I did, and have never regretted. Every doctor and surgeon makes choices and decisions on a daily basis - but not always the right ones. In my case, you have made the right choices EVERY time.
It has been quite the journey thus far. The most important thing I have learned is the importance of using a Diplomate of the American Board of Plastic Surgery and an active member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. I would like to share with you the fact that I would, will, and have recommended you to anyone wanting or requiring plastic surgery. You have completely restored my faith in what a medical professional is and how plastic surgery can be a very positive influence in a person's life.
The follow-up both you and Mary have extended reach far and beyond what I would have expected - I know without a doubt that this journey we have embarked upon is ours together and that you are a man of integrity, a professional who stands 100% behind his work. The care and concern you have for each of your patients is evident and is immeasurable. You have addressed all unexpected situations that arose and have made yourself and your staff available as needed. You made me feel like I am your number one concern. It is important to me that you know how much that means to me as your patient as I am sure it does to your other patients.
I would also like to express my gratitude to Mary for her tremendous support, continuous assistance, reassurance, and advice. Her sincerity and dedication to your patients is to be commended - truly the best I have encountered in any medical office. Your team reflects your persona and I am an advocate for life.
Words may seem trite, but please know this message comes from the bottom off my heart. The results of my surgery are not only aesthetically amazing, but your demeanor in remedying a very complex situation with your skill, patience, and determination will be forever appreciated. Thank you!
Sincerely,
R.P.
