Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery
Neurosurgeon Anders Cohen is Sought After the World Over
Neurosurgeon Anders Cohen is a recognized expert at revolutionary, minimally invasive neurosurgical techniques that are a far cry from the old techniques they are replacing. Dr. Cohen is Chief of Neurosurgery at Brooklyn Hospital Center, where he and his department diagnose and treat adult and pediatric patients inflicted with a wide range of nervous system diseases and conditions, such as those which affect the brain, cranial blood vessels and coverings, the spine, the spinal cord, and the peripheral nerves. Dr. Cohen is also a much-sought-after lecturer; he speaks both nationally and internationally about neurosurgery and teaches other neurosurgeons in his capacity as Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery at the Weill Cornell Medical Center.
The minimally invasive techniques that Dr. Anders Cohen specializes in are becoming the treatments of choice for many patients the world over. They represent a definite change in neurosurgery. Many neurosurgical techniques of the past were rather invasive; due to the limitations of technology and medical know-how, surgeons were forced to open up relatively large areas of the head, abdomen, chest and/or back in order to reach the areas of the spine and brain that needed treatment. Nowadays, thanks to technological breakthroughs and increased medical knowledge and skills, certain patients are able to undergo minimally invasive neurosurgical procedures that are less risky and less costly than older procedures, and they can recover far quicker from having undergone these procedures to boot.
In addition to his skill as a neurosurgeon, Anders Cohen is also much in demand among both existing and potential patients due to his excellent professional reputation. His many satisfied patients eagerly attest to his demeanor, compassion, one-on-one focus, bedside manner and courtesy. His team of medical professionals bears these same qualities as well, ensuring that any client will immediately feel at ease under their professional care.
