I switched to Dr. Kohn at 20 weeks with my second. I had a nightmarish time with my last OB office. After my first visit I felt I and my daughter were in caring hands. He is open, caring, and spends time with you. He visits you each day your in the hospital. After giving birth I had some issues and Dr. Kohn went above and beyond to make sure I got the proper care and treatment.
He is a phenomenal doctor and his staff are amazing, too.

After doing lot of research looking for an OBGYN I went to Dr Kohn and couldn’t he happier. He delivered my daughter and it was the best experience I could dream of.

Dr. Kohn is the best OBGYN you can ask for! He’s very patient, calm, LISTENS and knowledgeable. From day 1 we already knew we hit the jackpot! Dr. Kohn we want to Thank You for everything you’ve done for us and help deliver a very healthy baby. You are an amazing Dr but also an amazing person. Thanks again!

Dr Kohn is an amazing doctor and human being. I’ve been seeing him for several years now and he delivered my baby this year. Dr. Kohn took amazing care of me and I felt like I was his only patient. He got back to me the same day when I called and really listened to all my concerns. As a high risk patient, he was proactive and on top of solutions for my pregnancy. Dr Kohn and his staff are very personable and you feel at home when you visit their office. Griselda, Evelyn and the other young nurse who’s name I cannot recall, were always friendly, chatty and on top of everything. I never waited for more than 5 minutes when coming to the appointments. Everyone seemed really happy to be at work and gave it their best. I highly recommend him and his practice for all your girly needs.

I had surgery that Dr Kohn performed and it went very well and my issues cleared up. He is warm, personal and an all-​around good doctor. There should be more like him.

Edited to add: I just had my daughter beginning of Sept and thanks to Dr. Kohn, I had the best experience I could of hoped for. He was very reassuring and motivating during pushing, which believe me, is VERY important! I now have a healthy baby daughter and am totally pleased with my birth experience!!!

Words cannot describe how much I love Dr Kohn. As a nurse myself, I am very PICKY when it comes to doctors and Dr. Kohn always goes above and beyond my expectations. He is always there to listen to my concerns and like everyone else says, he is very calm. When shit is going left the last thing you want is an overly emotional panicking physician. I cannot stress that enough. I have gone through some hard times and Dr. Kohn did not hesitate to be proactive and aggressive with diagnosis despite my young age. It is because of his actions, we found out the issue and corrected it and now I’m 38.4 weeks pregnant and waiting any day now to deliver. This may not sound noteworthy but I have seen multiple doctors look the other way because of their patients age with the attitude of «they are young and healthy, it will work out for them.» I will be a long time patient of his and will be having many more of my kids delivered by him. I also wanted to add that on 3 separate occasions I had to do a walk in emergency appointment and never had an issue. I never had to wait an extended period of time or was never turned away because he was too busy to see me. Once, he even saw me before his office hours. I also called him at 630am on a Sunday morning and he literally called me back within minutes with instructions.
Also, his staff is also very nice and always answers all of my questions.

First impression great! Dr. Kohn is an excellent doctor and truly deserves all the 5 stars on his reviews! After being very disappointed with my current doctor who wouldn’t even return my calls during a 2^nd miscarriage, my best friend explained to me that I was wrong to stay with her if she can’t make time for me in a time like this. She told me her doctor, Dr. Kohn is very knowledgeble, listens and explains things exceptionally, and he is always very calm, which makes her feel at ease even in stressful situations. I thought this is worth mentioning that he also returns patient calls himself and not his staff. Makes you feel like a human, not just another folder. I called their office early in the morning and explained that I was a new patient and just found out that my pregnancy was no longer viable and possibly would need a d&c. I was hoping to see him in a few weeks and start over fresh. I could not believe they gave me an appoinment the same day. My own doctor in glendale adventist had just scolded me that morning that she was too busy to see me, she worked so hard already!!! Dr. Kohn’s staff was so pleasant, the doctor eased all my fears with what steps we would need to take going forward. Even though he confirmed the miscarriage unavoidable, i left the office feeling relieved that finally I didn’t have to run after my doctor for answers, and be scolded for it.

Dr. Kohn is the best!!! Delivered my daughter in better than great shape.

I agree to prior reviews that Dr Kohn is calm, he listens, he has good bedside manner and I don’t doubt that he may be the best doctor for his loyal patients but…
I went for a consult for a condition and my experience was a lesson learned because of overpriced and shocking health care bill.
I was prescribed a specialist but was not told to get it after my period so the results were inconclusive. If you’re practical like me, then you will also consider missing on this detail a waste of time and money.
I had to call his office to follow up on some lab results and his assistant kept me waiting and then took the liberty of explaining the results herself instead of letting the doctor do it.
To be fair, when I called again and requested for results to be sent almost two months later (so that I can consult another doctor who can help me), I received it by mail after a few days.
If anything, this has been a very expensive experience that I don’t intend to repeat but I’m definitely wiser and will clarify rates next time.

I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Kohn. He’s a wonderful doctor with the best bedside manner of any doctor I’ve ever met. He is a very soothing presence no matter the situation! When my husband and I decided to try for kids, I spent a lot of time online looking at different OBs in my area. Dr. Kohn was well reviewed on every single website that I found, and I certainly understand why.
He has helped me through 2 miscarriages and 2 successful pregnancies with my two sons. He’s very thorough, and really takes the time to (calmly) explain the pros and cons to everything. It allowed me to be actively involved in every decision we made during my pregnancies. He tends to err on the side of caution and I knew I could trust his recommendations and that he wasn’t pushing any agenda, which I feel is really important when working with an OB as there are so many difficult decisions to be made. He allowed me to be confident in my pregnancies and I really enjoyed my pre-​natal visits. Even though he is busy, I never once felt rushed during any visit and he always took the time to answer all my questions (no matter how silly they seemed) and to ask about my family.
His office staff are also great. Griselda and Anna are a pleasure to work with and helped me stay on top of all my disability paperwork, EDD claim status, etc.
Truthfully, I wish he could be my doctor for everything!

Dr. Kohn is by far the best doctor I’ve ever gone to. He’s so calm, intelligent and smart. He’s also a great listener and will take your concerns seriously and work with you. He always explains all the options and then let’s you make a decision.
The day I went into labor — 10 days past due. I had an induction scheduled at 5:30pm the next day per my decision, but my body went natural at 4am. I was checking in at 4am with another girl (also Dr. Kohn’s patient) who was having twins and 33 weeks pregnant, she ended up with an emergency c section that morning. Dr. Kohn is very professional and won’t discuss his patients, but I found out that she and babies were doing great from the nurses. Not to mention he had 2 other prescheduled surgeries that same day and I started pushing for 3 hours at 6pm. He came to check on me often and was present for a lot of my pushing. I got lucky this little guy came naturally close to 3 hours and I did not need a c section. His head was big and when he crowned I saw the neonatal icu team already standing there on standby to assess the baby and make sure his shoulder was not stuck and we did not need to break it in case the head was out and he was stuck. My husband said the look on Dr. Kohn’s face was so confident and he knew exactly what he was going to do next. I got an episiotomy (which healed better than natural tears) and the baby flew out and the team was gone.
Thank god for Dr. Kohn for being such an amazing doctor and I knew I was in good hands under his care! I highly recommend him and can confidently say you’ll be in good hands! Not to mention you won’t sit in his waiting room for hours waiting to be seen, during 9 months I’ve only had to wait an extra 30 minutes once bc emergency patient walked in.

Dr. Kohn is one of the best!!! He’s super smart warm and caring! Trust and feel safe with him 100%!!! His office is located in a great neighborhood and his staff are very professional and friendly and most of all efficient! The wait time in his office for your appt is minimal. Can’t say enough good things about him.

So Far so Good. I was referred to Dr. Kohn from one of my mommy groups for my second pregnancy. I did not have the greatest doctor experience with my first. I like that he is very calm and covers all of the bases. He sits down with you to answer questions and go over concerns. I just feel more relxed about this pregnancy with him. His office can be busy but I take that as a good thing and of course he delivers babies so I expect that. I will update after the birth.

I recently found Dr. Kohn when I was looking for a second opinion from another dr. I was refer to him by my regular internist. I recently had a MRI for a back injury earlier this month and they called back with results that I had a huge mass on my ovary.
I immediately went to see my regular GYB who seemed very concerned and wasn’t sure if one, he was going to be able to save my ovary, two, if he could do the surgery laparoscopic and three if he could even do this surgery. He kept saying he was going to need help and seemed very unsure. He wanted to open me up and seemed very unconcerned with the fact that I wanted as little down time as possible.
When I first met with Dr. Kohn he explained all the same risk with surgery, even death. Of course with all surgery there is that possibility. The difference was he seemed very confident and reassuring. This was important because I only have one ovary, and if they took this last one I would have no possibility for babies and I would go into menopause. I’m in my early thirties so that would be horrible.
Dr Kohn is a very serious Dr and he takes his job very serious, so even being the jokester I am, it was hard to get him to break. His bedside manner is very professional. However in hindsight I’m glad.
I got surgery last Tuesday and it was a piece of cake. They removed the dermoid, 7 cm long, size of an orange and saved my ovary. The best possible option. I was so worried after talking with two other drs I had lost hope. Excellent dr and I’m so lucky to have found him!

This is the best OB/​GYN EVER! I was referred by a friend who swore up and down that this Doctor was the best she had ever been to. I agree completely. Dr. Kohn has such a mild bedside manner. He will sit you in his office and explain all procedures from the beginning to the end in order for you to feel comfortable. He will answer all questions. When obtaining results he himself calls you not a nurse or anyone else. I love this about him. He makes you feel as if you matter and you’re just not another patient. I am on treatment with him and its heading in a better direction. I never had my issued diagnosed until him.
Keep in mind that because he takes time with you and answers all your questions, listens to any concerns, appointments may take longer. I don’t mind this at all. As long as I know I am not being treated as another customer/​patient coming thru the door. If I ever have a second child, he will be the one who will deliver and tend to all my needs. :)

Dr. Kohn has been my Ob/​Gyn for a decade now. I remember being so impressed upon our first consultation. He is the most caring, compassionate doctor I have ever known. He is a great listener, has wonderful bedside manners, and ladies we all know that it matters so much in that field. He has never disappointed me, always supported me in my decisions with his guidance. I had two difficult birth and he was just so wonderful throughout. I care so much about him, he is the definition of a great doctor. I am proud to call him my Doctor. His staff has been the same since day one which speaks volume on how great he is as a boss. His girls are great, the whole office is cozy, clean, professional at all times. Love them all!

I just had my first visit with him yesterday and I must say I am very happy I changed my doctor. He is extremely knowledgeable and gave me more detailed information that I wouldn’t even know to ask. He explained exactly what to eat what not to eat how much of it to eat how much exercise to do how much my heart rate should be. He is just an amazing doctor. I’m very happy I changed my doctor and even more happy I now have him to deliver my muffin! 5 stars hands down for his knowledge and his consultation.

I was in search of a good Obgyn and a friend of mine referred me to Dr. Kohn. He truly is the best. All the wonderful things you read about him in the reviews are true. He delivered both of my babies and even with the challenges I had during the pregnancies Dr. Kohn was always so kind hearted, trustworthy, gentle, with excellent bedside manners. Griselda and the rest of his office staff are first class as well. I highly recommend him to anyone. I love this Dr.

I switched to Dr Kohn around week 20 of my twin pregnancy because I wanted a doctor closer to my home. I was a little hesitant because I prefer female gynecologists and obstetricians but Dr Kohn won me over as soon as I met him. He’s calm, caring, patient and thorough. He and his staff took care of all my needs and answered all of my questions and have always treated me with respect. One of his nurses, Griselda, even gave me a bunch of samples of formula after my twins were born and carried them to my car because she didn’t want me to carry anything heavy after my c-​section.
Wait times for my appointments were short. Parking was usually easy. Mondays and Fridays are street cleaning days so free parking is limited in the mornings on those days but the structures only charge $ 3 per hour.
The location is good if you have to go to the hospital or to a maternal fetal medicine specialist on the same day. And if you need lunch, Gelson’s is a short walk away.
During my regular appointments Dr Kohn listened to the babies’ heartbeats with a doppler and measured my belly. He did not do an ultrasound until the day he measured my cervix and found that I was 3 cm dilated. But he sent me to see Dr Bradley, a maternal fetal medicine specialist on a regular basis so I always felt like he and I knew that the babies were healthy.
As far as the delivery of my twins, Dr Kohn was amazing. I don’t know how he juggles appointments at his office and multiple deliveries on the same day but he does it all while staying calm and focused. After Dr Kohn broke my water, one of my babies’ heart rate was slowing down so Dr Kohn decided to perform an emergency c-​section on me. I was a little worried because hey, it’s surgery! But Dr Kohn explained what was happening every step of the way and I felt my twins and I were in good hands. Within a few minutes, my twins were born and Dr Kohn and an assisting doctor were stitching me back up.
Dr Kohn checked in on me regularly at the hospital after the surgery and I saw him in his office 2 weeks later when he checked my stitches and again a month later. I’ve recovered well and my twin girls are healthy thanks to Dr Kohn!
