Dr. Eric Cohen Selected as a New Jersey Top Doctor in 2009 and 2010

Selecting a doctor is a daunting task. Building a physician-patient relationship with the right health care professional is essential to every family’s wellbeing and requires a greater standard of care than selecting a name from the phonebook. The state of New Jersey has more than 20,000 physicians in multiple specialties. How does one know which physician to trust with their family’s health and wellness?


Every year, New Jersey Monthly sets out to help their readers answer this very important question. The publication polls doctors in New Jersey annually, and then recommends physicians who have been selected by their peers as standouts in the field in their annual Top Doctors issue.


In both 2009 and 2010, Dr. Eric Cohen’s peers selected him as one of New Jersey Monthly’s Top Doctors. The 2010 Top Doctors issue featured 647 physicians from across New Jersey in 57 specialties. Dr. Cohen practices neurology and osteopathy with Summit Medical Group in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey. He is also an Attending Neurologist at Overlook Hospital in Summit, New Jersey and Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York. Dr. Cohen graduated from Indiana University with a Bachelor’s degree in Biology, and later received his Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine from New York College of Osteopathic Medicine. He is board-certified in neurology through the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.
