We recently moved to Hornsby and booked a well-child check with Dr Cohen. He was patient with our toddler and explained the developmental milestones clearly. The clinic on Palmerston Road felt welcoming, and my little one left with a big smile after his vaccination. Highly recommend for friendly, thorough paediatric care.
Dr Cohen took the time to answer all my questions about vaccines and daily routines. My youngest had a minor fever from a cold, and I appreciated the calm, practical advice. It’s a relief knowing there’s a paediatrician in Hornsby who speaks plainly and in English when needed.
We had a great experience at the Hornsby clinic. The developmental screening felt thorough without being overbearing. The staff were friendly, and Dr Cohen explained things in a way our family could understand. Definitely a reliable go-to for our kids’ health.
Reception was smooth and Dr Cohen’s approach to common childhood illnesses is reassuring. He suggested practical home care tips and flagged when we should come back for follow-up. Felt confident leaving with a plan for my daughter’s health.
Excellent service on Palmerston Road. Dr Cohen listened to our concerns about my toddler’s growth and gave clear nutritional guidance. The vaccination appointment was quick and well explained. We’ll be back for future check-ups.
