Dr. Anders Cohen: Expert in Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery Techniques
When it comes to minimally invasive treatments for brain and spine conditions, Dr. Anders Cohen is top of mind among patients. Having broken new ground in the field of neurosurgery with his various pioneering efforts, he is known for developing and employing methods that are less painful and safer for patients.
He is known as the first New York surgeon to perform the XLIF technique, which enables doctors to operate from the patient’s side, leaving major organs, tissues and blood vessels unaffected. Another technique he pioneered in this state is the AxiaLIF, which allows the surgeon to make small incisions instead of one big one, helping patients to recover more quickly.
Dr. Anders Cohen’s practice of minimally invasive procedures enables his patients to leave the hospital only after a few days and experience less pain, discomfort and scarring post-surgery. Specializing in both adult and pediatric conditions, he makes treatment of brain and spine diseases and injuries easier for patients of all ages.
