Dr. Isaac Cohen, MD

For years I suffered chronic lower back pain but I’d be relieved once I sat or laid down until sciatica happened. I was using a walker in my home and went almost nowhere. I’d been to the largest Orthopedic Specialists group in CT but no help was found there. Just more pain. My wonderful PC recommended Dr. Isaac Cohen in Trumbull. I was desperate as my life had dwindled down to nothing. I went to see Dr. Cohen who first got rid of that sciatic pain and then moved on to RFA (Radio Frequency Ablation). I completed this pain free procedure last week and I am 90% better. I’m told it takes up to three weeks for the pain to completely subside but I’m already almost all the way there. It’s as if a miracle was performed. I can’t believe I was actually using a walker. I had one I my car too for emergencies. Not anymore. I’m thrilled to no end and can hardly stop telling everyone. He is the best doctor I’ve experienced in my 68 years. How impressed I was at the professionalism during RFA. The precision team, lead by Dr. Cohen, communicated like a fine tuned symphony orchestra. It was and is truly amazing. The suffering is over. I am forever grateful.

Quick, painless & efficient. Those are the words that come to mind when thinking of Dr. Cohen. He is great at what he does, and you never have to second guess or worry while you’re in his care. 5 stars all the way around. Thank you Doc.

Everyone was so nice and no wait time which was excellent. Dr. Cohen was very thorough and nice and I look forward to having him as my doctor

I recently saw Dr Cohen for an increase in my chronic back pain. I was very impressed with the efficiency kindness of his office staff. I found Dr Cohen to be an outstanding and knowledgeable physician. He obviously loves his work and likes caring for people. He clearly and patiently explained my condition and options answering all me questions. Within 3 weeks of my first visit I had an MRI and received an epidural injection. The first time in years I’m walking with little to no pain. Thank you Dr Cohen

Frustrated and losing hope after over a year of unbearable lower back pain and fruitless consultations with neurologist, neurosurgeon, rheumatologist, and physical therapists, I finally found Dr. Cohen. I was able to get an appointment within the week and Dr. Cohen resolved the problem after 3 visits, an MRI and a painless procedure. I was immediately impressed by his comprehensive and careful approach to identifying the cause of my pain and resolving the problem in a manner that would bring relief in the least invasive and most effective way. He listened to me and did not dismiss anything I said (I tend to ramble). I felt comfortable asking as many questions as I needed about his diagnosis and recommended treatment. The staff and assistants I encountered in the practice were always very helpful and friendly. I recommend this Dr. without any hesitation.

Dr. Cohen is an example of believing in what he does and treats me with professional knowledge and a heart that feels for my problem. His staff is very efficient and he is extremely courteous. Excellence is his motto and care for me is valuable. Thank you Dr. Cohen , I’m very happy with all you are. God Bless you. Respectfully Maria Maffucci

Dr. Cohen is kind, gentle and caring. My lower back pain was 95% resolved by radio frequency ablation. I am extremely please with the results. I would recommend Dr. Cohen to patients with back pain.

I am grateful to Dr Cohen for eliminating my pain in my back. He has saved me from surgery. I would recommend that if you are considering surgery, go see him first.

I have many issues with my back and was in great pain. I have scoliosis, arthritis and bulging discs. Dr. Cohen treated me for 10 years with shots & nerve destructive radio waves until, with age, the structural problems in my back would no longer respond to his treatment. He is a brilliant doctor who is patient and very willing and able to explain my condition and what treatment he proposed to use and why. I have recommended him to many people and will continue to do so.

I have been impressed with his professional and personal approach to my lower back pain. He took the time to listen, explore and diagnose my issue. He took the time to explain the issues and the various treatment options. He was conservative in his approach to resolve the issue - Physical Therapy followed by steroid injections and ultimately eliminating my lower back pain with a Lumbar Radiofrequency Ablation. The pain was gone the day of the procedure and I have been pain free since. While your situation may be different from mine, what are you waiting for ?

I called my primary care physician to thank him for referring me to Dr. Cohen. :-)

I was desperate - I was having severe pain in my shoulder - saw two doctors previously who misdiagnosed me - then I went to Dr. Isaac Cohen who properly diagnosed my very uncommon problem (parsonage-turner syndrome) in our first meeting. He is incredible, he aggressively treated my pain and has an excellent understanding of pain management / neurology / orthopedics / rehabilitation. His follow up and bedside manner are unmatched!! I STRONGLY RECOMMEND HIM!

I see Dr. Cohen at his Trumbull, CT office. Dr. Cohen is a very patient caring doctor who takes his time examining you and takes additional time to understand your degree of pain and were the pain comes from. He takes his time in caring for you and your appointment is never rushed. Dr. Cohen takes the time to explain everything to you in detail so that you are comfortable with his treatment choice. If you need a very very good doctor that is also a very nice individual, go see Dr. Isaac Cohen.

I sought help from Dr. Cohen because of back pain I was experiencing after my second spinal fusion. He explained what was happening. He answered any questions. He showed compassion before, during and after the procedure to alleviate my back pain. Thanks to his expertise I can now live my life miinus the annoying pain.

I have been a patient of Dr. Cohen for several years for spinal difficulties. Thanks to his intervention, I am pain free, still after 3 visits in 11 years' time. I am so grateful for that and to him for being such a good doctor.

I have been seeing dr cohen for almost 2 years and he is fantastic. he has the best bed side manner, he is calm, and explains everything. He follows up with all my visits with phone calls. To find a dr you trust is hard in todays world of insurance based groups but dr cohen goes above and beyond all my expectations. i am confident that with him in my corner i will always receive the best care. i extra highly recommend him.

I am a nurse and suffered with back pain. I went to Dr. Cohen, and right away felt his empathy and concern for me. The office staff was nice and accommodating. When I had an exacerbation of my pain on a weekend, Dr. Cohen called me right away and resolved all my issues. I no longer have pain and will never forget how Dr. Cohen helped me.

As a healthcare professional myself, I had no second thoughts but to see Dr. Cohen for my back/hip pain. He has an extraordinary reputation in the medical community for being "tops in his field" of physical medicine and pain management. He spends time and listens to his patients; explaining in depth his diagnostic process and the procedure to follow. Dr. Cohen is truly a caring professional and an outstanding clinician who has significantly improved my pain. I am so pleased to have had the opportunity to put my complete trust in him.

Dr. Cohen has earned my trust. He took considerable care during my examination and subsequent explaination of my problem. He thoroughly explained my issue in laymen's terms and spent the time necessary to leave me with a good understanding of my situation. Net, net......I am very comfortable in his care and would recommend him highly.
