Orlin & Cohen Orthopedic Group

This is about the p t. If it’s empty your fine if they are busy it’s s joke. I’ve been here for an hour and 20 minutes of which prob 20 spent on therapy and the rest on waiting. I was 30 minutes early because I had an appointment next door prior to this but I still had to wait

I’ve been coming to Orlin and Cohen since I suffered a complete tear of my left bicep tendon. Dr. Keefer got me into surgery promptly, and today it’s as though nothing happened. The office staff is extremely courteous. I’m not a fan of their Imaging Center, as they tend to over book. While you do not have to wait long for a scheduled appointment, this leads to long wait times at the office. Still there staff of doctors are worth the wait.

Flexible appointments. Short Waits. Wonderful staff! Dr. Kearns is fantastic. He is knowledgeable, considerate, and patient. Also, every employee is kind and cares. Hard to find.

I was here for pain in my arm and discovered that I have Cervical Radiculopathy. I saw Dr Grossman a few times. He has an amazing bedside manner and was so thoughtful and caring. He cared so much about getting me out of pain. He was my 3^rd and final opinion and I decided to go ahead and schedule surgery with him.

Was here today for pain in my left leg. This place really gets it! From the first call all the way through the exam, I was treated warmly and professionally. A welcomed changed from the experiences we are use to today!

Went here yesterday for a very bummed knee. It was burning, tight, swollen, and painful. Got a shot and was told to lay off it for a few days. So my vacation started earlier than expected. I got two weeks now instead of one. (Sigh!!). Oh well.

Freaking scam. Went there for a hip and neck problem. Xrays showed «nothing» and suggested that I do physical therapy 3 times a week to see if that helps. Very convenient for them as they have their own PT. I instead decided to get a second opinion and see a corrosion. Low and behold, my new doctor saw my hips are clearly torqued and the curve in my neck is gone. He then requested the resorts from Orlin and Cohen which read that I have a frayed meniscus and fluid in the hip. This is consistent with these other reviews of this doctor not being forthcoming with all the results.

My doctor is recently partnered with this group. My first experience at the New Woodbury office was awful!!! I had never waited more than 15 minutes for him in his former office, but after arriving promptly @ 11:30 for my appointment, I was still waiting at 1:10. I got my co-​payment back and a form to fill out to get my records transferred. I should bill them for my gas & time. Terrible!!!

Never ever again! I had a car accident over a year ago and injured my knee. After being put through the mill in physical therapy and having an adverse reaction to a steroid injection I get told I need to see their surgeon for further treatment I set that up only to be delayed further by more tests. The surgeon speaks to me about going in athroscopically to find out the extent of damage, to only back track once we find out I was still under no fault. After several back and forths and continual pain I get a made up diagnosis and sent to pain mgmt who disagreed with the surgeon on the diagnosis. For the surgeon to only tell me there is nothing he can do! And only offered more steroid injections which had been noted i am allergic to!
Funny thing is his ortho fellow and pain mgmt associate all recommended surgery. So why not now! After over a year of pain and disability. Even the doctors of physical therapy recommend having the fluid drained and the area cleaned up. I decided to see a real specialist who has since gone in and removed the fluid and debrided the back of my knee cap which has greatly alleviated my pain and swelling that I had for over a year. I will eventually need a knee replacement and unfortunately due to the lack of care and knowledge at the hands of Carroll and Lippe it will most likely be done sooner than later.
Do yourself a favor and run from these doctors! They BS you to run out your no fault then shaft you because they were incapable of performing the smallest of procedures. I wasted over a year of my life in pain that I cannot get back because of them, trust me if I could sue them and take away their license to practice I would. Unfortunately I found myself not the only patient ill cared for by these doctors who only wanted to put a bandaid on the problem instead of actually fixing the issue at hand.

I waited 2 ½ hours and was literally seen for 3 minutes. I was with my 11 year old daughter who had broken her wrist. They did x-​rays on her at each visit, a total of 4 times. At this last visit today I told the PA that I would rather her not have another x-​ray. He looked at me as if I had no clue as to what i was saying, and mumbled under his breath and said I can speak with the doctor and walked out. He was rude and inconsiderate. You would think that he would be professional and give me some medical reasons as to why my 11 year old needed further x-​rays, when her cast had been off for 3 weeks already.
I expressed my concerns and my frustrations to 4 different staff members, all of them seemed to not really care…
I will NEVER go back to that office again.

I have come to this Ortho office any time we have had the need for an orthopedic doc. I think it may be time to find some place new. They were bought (?) by Orlin Cohen orthopedic and everything is different. One of the most annoying is that EVERY time you go to the office you have to fill out paperwork. The SAME paperwork. I saw Dr Barkin and got a cortisone shot, hadn’t been there in a few years so totally understandable I would need to fill out paperwork, HOWEVER when i came back for my follow up 3 weeks later i had to fill it out AGAIN? I said I just filled this out 3 weeks ago and was told it has to be filled out every time. Have they heard of this new fangled movement about going green? :-/​
The wait in this office is always very long and the waiting room isn’t very comfortable, I also noticed when I was there the other day they had a tube TV sitting on a cabinet for entertainment int he waiting room. So for what seems like an upscale practice, it is pretty low scale.

Sports /​Orthopeadic complex.
This building houses a collection of professionals who specialize in Orthopaedics.
The offices are all on the ground floor which is decent as most people going in here have some sort of foot /​leg /​hip issue.
The front door is about 6 feet wide and opens automatically, then the fun begins.
You would have to think that a place that specializes in people who have trouble walking would be chock full of automatic doors but no, once you get past the front door, you are greeted with a regular size glass door — which you have to manage to open. This can be a real chore if you have a full leg cast for instance. WTF? Why not put an automatic sliding door there?
This door is also standard size — so I got to watch some poor bastard attempt to wheel his girl out on a wheelchair — he slammed that poor girl into the door frame twice — she was NOT happy about that.
The waiting room is your standard issue one with chairs along the wall and a row in the middle with back to back chairs– however even though there are plenty of chairs, again there are a lot of people with leg problems so if everyone is sitting there with there leg extended (mostly due to casts) then there is very little room to walk through that waiting area — and this is further compounded by the fact that the people who ARE walking around are mostly limping or hobbling…
This place could use some common sense in the layout for sure.
Parking in front and the side.
