16 Doctors from Cohen Children's Medical Center Featured on New York Magazine's
The 2011 annual report from New York Magazine features 16 physicians from Cohen Children's Medical Center, including specialists in pediatric surgery, genetics, cardiology and neonatal, as well as laparoscopic surgery.
/EINPresswire.com/ NEW HYDE PARK, NY - New York Magazine features an annual list of "New York's Best Doctors." Of the 1,144 physicians on the 2011 compilation, 16 of those doctors work with Steven and Alexandra Cohen Children's Medical Center of New York. The "Best Doctors" list is a melting pot of specializations, including pediatric surgery (where Cohen Children's Medical Center offers various modalities, including minimally invasive pediatric laparoscopic surgery) and child psychiatry, as well as behavioral health, immunology, endocrinology and more (as noted below).
In addition to the 16 featured pediatric physicians, 83 others were listed whose primary affiliation is with a hospital in North Shore-LIJ Health System.
With a constant focus on healthcare reform in government, individuals and families are becoming increasingly aware of the need for quality healthcare while weighing the costs. Despite the political debates, there is always a point of common ground in that when people are sick, they want the best possible care. Many Long Island residents turn to New York Magazine for the annual list to find first-rate physicians for their family-care needs.
