With Uptown Pediatrics since 1989
Hi, I'm Dr. Cohen!
Beth Cohen, MD
Pediatrician · Uptown Pediatrics, Upper East Side
“I went straight into private practice because I absolutely love children, and after more than 35 years, my favorite part is still watching my patients grow up.”
Get to know Dr. Cohen
Beth Cohen has been at Uptown Pediatrics since 1989. Dr. Cohen completed her undergraduate studies at the University of Florida and Tulane, and her medical degree at the University of Miami. She then moved to New York City where she completed three years of pediatric training at Mount Sinai Hospital.
After completing residency, she went into private practice right away because she “absolutely loves children.” Dr. Cohen is an active member of the American Academy of Pediatrics and the New York Pediatric Society.
She is married to a pediatrician and is the proud mother of three children. Dr. Cohen loves biking, hiking, and traveling, and she is trying to learn to cook. She especially likes watching her patients grow up.
