Overview
At Cohen Children’s—the pediatric services within Northwell Health—children see us differently. That’s because we approach them differently. We understand their needs, their emotions, their fears, and their wish to just be kids. We believe the better you understand a child, the better you can treat them.
In fact, we specialize in everything children.
Our innovative thinking and advanced expertise make us a leader in a wide range of pediatric specialties. The children we treat inspire us to think big, to go beyond the status quo and relentlessly pursue breakthroughs that will impact the health and treatment of children across the hallway, across the country and across the globe for years to come.
Our multidisciplinary care teams within Cohen Children’s, which include doctors, nurses, therapists and many others, know how to form relationships with our young patients that go beyond just exceptional medicine—they are relationships that come from empathy, compassion and truly loving what we do.
Why? Because we’ve learned that we’re not just helping children get well. We’re protecting childhoods. And what is more important than that?
