Stephen Cohen Endodontics

Dr. Cohen is beyond excellent. He explains the root canal procedure and is always keeping you abreast of the progress being made. I don't think a funnier surgeon exists. Highly recommend him and his staff. My procedure was a non-event thanks to him.

Beautiful office with an amazing corner view of the bay while in the dental chair - helped make this feel more relaxing and almost enjoyable! Dr. Cohen was wonderfully friendly and did a perfect job with his attentive and knowledgeable assistant - less than 45 minutes and I was out nearly pain-free. Today - no pain and grateful for the fast, efficient and professional experience. My friends warned me of a painful root canal experience and my experience was completely opposite! I certainly would like to not have to ever go back! But if I do, I know I'll be in good hands. :)

Love Dr. Cohen! I had four root canals done by him eleven years ago and my teeth still feel/look good. His office always is flexible and very helpful - it was an emergency and they fit me right in.

I've been referred to Dr. Cohen twice across a 10+ year span, both ending in positive experiences. First visit ended with a root canal on a molar that has been trouble free ever since. The procedure was painless and relatively comfortable, with Dr. Cohen explaining the process throughout. Second visit demonstrated the benefits of his conservative practice. After a thorough test of the tooth he determined no procedure was necessary. My referring dentist tells me that most referrals to an endodontist will end in a root canal, but that Dr. Cohen himself carefully determines whether it is needed. He also drills very small holes which is important in cases like mine, where a crown is already in place on the affected tooth. A friend told me years ago that when it comes to root canals, "he's the man". It's still true. His office is very comfortable and calming and his staff friendly and professional. Moreover, he's a very kind & charming individual. I recommend his practice highly.

I have been to see Dr. Stephen Cohen a couple of times - His waiting room was very welcoming - although close to Union Square, I felt far away from the downtown bustle of San Francisco. He thoroughly examined the tooth in question and explained his findings. Dr. Cohen was very clear in explaining my choices. He made no bones about the fact that he could not guarantee the results of his work, saying that despite his best efforts, the tooth may still need to be removed in future. Sometimes, with other dentists, I have felt that I am being "sold' on a plan of action - with Dr. Cohen I felt no pressure - simply informed choice. When I did decide to go ahead with having the crown removed and having the root canal work, he assured me there would be no pain - and there wasn't. Dr. Cohen exudes confidence born of experience. I felt comfortable from beginning to end. I would recommend him to a friend without hesitation. Julie McGuinness (Nathaniel's mom)
