Dr. Anders Cohen: One of the Most Accomplished Neurosurgeons in NYC

Widely known to have performed breakthrough spine surgeries, Dr. Anders Cohen has to be one of the most accomplished neurosurgeons in New York City. With an impressive reputation that has spread well beyond his domain, even reaching territories across the globe, his medical services are most required by patients afflicted with neurological conditions like spinal injuries or brain tumors.

The doctor’s sharp caliber is due in no small part to his extensive training. After graduating from the College of Osteopathic Medicine at the New York Institute of Technology, he furthered his medical education by taking up Neurological Surgery at the Long Island Jewish Medical Center. He is also a fellow for Pediatric Neurological Surgery at the New York Weill Cornwell Medical Center.

In his more than a decade of practice, Dr. Anders Cohen has helped countless individuals to acquire lasting treatments for their ailments, sans the long recovery period and extreme pain brought about by highly invasive procedures. He instead specializes on performing minimally invasive surgeries that allow his patients to recover within a relatively short period of time.

People suffering from scoliosis, herniated discs, and sports-related back and spine injuries are most commonly treated by Dr. Cohen. Apart from standard neurosurgical surgeries, he has also performed XLIF, Trans1, and dynamic rod procedures — the first among his fellows in New York City to do so. An innovator by heart, the doctor continues on his quest to pioneer lumbar and cervical decompression procedures.

What further sets Dr. Cohen apart from many other neurosurgeons is that he makes it a point to find time despite his busy schedule to personally talk to and check up on his patients. He also has the ability to discuss medical conditions with his patients using plain language that they can understand. Dr. Anders Cohen currently practices at the Brooklyn Hospital Center as the chief of the neurosurgery department.
