Not so much. Maybe great for Ob, but not for Gyn. Though Dr. Kohn took some time talking with me at his desk, I felt that he was in a bit of a hurry. The examination was incomplete, nothing like the doc who ultimately discovered what my Gyn issue was. The staff was mostly fine considering how very busy it was with so much going on. The environment felt crowded and overly active. Several lab tests he ordered were not pertinent to the symptoms I described to him, nor was the method of some of the lab tests he ordered appropriate for my personal situation. Not to mention that the visit and the testing cost a lot of money. When the labs came back negative, one would think that further testing and/or exploration should be done to target the issue I was having. I felt it was a waste of my time and money and that my health was declining as time passed. Again, he's probably fine as an Ob, but I needed a Gyn, and my experience with the Gyn part of Dr. Kohn was not up to any significant standard. read more

Ever since I was 15 I've had issues with my thyroids and hormones and I've gone to many different obgyn. He's the best doctor I've ever gone to. I'm 19 weeks pregnant now with my first baby and from the moment I found out I'm pregnant until now I've had the best experience so far. He's very patient, nice, caring, and informative. His staff is amazing as well. They are always kind and helpful. read more

We transferred to Dr Kohn in my 27th week due to my last doctor not doing deliveries anymore and the referral doctor not giving my husband and I the best vibes. Needless to say I was worried about getting a new doctor so far into my pregnancy and with it being our 4th baby and 4th c section not to mention it was going to be our 4th doctor as well...it was a lot to process. Thankfully when we met with Dr Kohn he was everything we had hoped for. He sat with us for about 40 min in his office to get to know us, learn our history, and answer my MANY questions. When we left I was truly at peace. All of the ladies were fantastic and they always worked with my sometimes changing schedule to accommodate me. Delivery Day Dr Kohn was his positive, peaceful self. He made sure all of my requests were met and that the nurses understood my wishes. There were some hiccups due to me having severe scar tissue that apparently made it VERY difficult to get to the baby. Dr Kohn ended up gently using a vacuum to help get our son out and he did so without me knowing in the moment. My husband apparently knew but I didn't. Which was good bc my personality would have had me freaking out. I ended up needing a drain bc I had some internal bleeding and I thank God for Dr Kohn bc I feel like most doctors wouldn't have thought to give me a drain. Even the assisting doctor was saying during surgery he didn't think it was really necessary but dr Kohn insisted and I believe he was absolutely correct. He also asked me to schedule at 39 wks (the earliest I've delivered is 40 wks in all other pregnancies even w my c sections) and I'm glad he did! Dr Kohn is a sweet soul! He still loves being a doctor and hasn't become bitter bc of our failing healthcare system. And when he needed to be a bit more stern in order to ensure I was taken care of during my surgery when the bleeding issue happened he was. So don't mistake his gentle spirit he will be your advocate in the hospital. Tell him what you want. Don't want. Your fears. Etc. he'll connect with you. Good luck to all future parents! Also the hospital room was GREAT. we asked for a double to ourselves and got it without the extra charge bc it was slow that week. ;) my husband had his own huge bed and tv. Lol. Felt like a mini vacation. read more

This review is long overdue. I've been a patient of Dr. Kohn's for 8+ years and in Feb 2018 he delivered my first daughter at Providence Tarzana. He is such a caring physician with amazing bedside manner. He remains calm no matter the circumstances. He answered countless questions of a first time mom, all while being extremely patient & thorough. I can't rave about him enough, he's an absolutely great doctor! read more

I switched to Dr Kohn around week 20 of my twin pregnancy because I wanted a doctor closer to my home. I was a little hesitant because I prefer female gynecologists and obstetricians but Dr Kohn won me over as soon as I met him. He's calm, caring, patient and thorough. He and his staff took care of all my needs and answered all of my questions and have always treated me with respect. One of his nurses, Griselda, even gave me a bunch of samples of formula after my twins were born and carried them to my car because she didn't want me to carry anything heavy after my c-section. Wait times for my appointments were short. Parking was usually easy. Mondays and Fridays are street cleaning days so free parking is limited in the mornings on those days but the structures only charge $3 per hour. The location is good if you have to go to the hospital or to a maternal fetal medicine specialist on the same day. And if you need lunch, Gelson's is a short walk away. During my regular appointments Dr Kohn listened to the babies' heartbeats with a doppler and measured my belly. He did not do an ultrasound until the day he measured my cervix and found that I was 3cm dilated. But he sent me to see Dr Bradley, a maternal fetal medicine specialist on a regular basis so I always felt like he and I knew that the babies were healthy. As far as the delivery of my twins, Dr Kohn was amazing. I don't know how he juggles appointments at his office and multiple deliveries on the same day but he does it all while staying calm and focused. After Dr Kohn broke my water, one of my babies' heart rate was slowing down so Dr Kohn decided to perform an emergency c-section on me. I was a little worried because hey, it's surgery! But Dr Kohn explained what was happening every step of the way and I felt my twins and I were in good hands. Within a few minutes, my twins were born and Dr Kohn and an assisting doctor were stitching me back up. Dr Kohn checked in on me regularly at the hospital after the surgery and I saw him in his office 2 weeks later when he checked my stitches and again a month later. I've recovered well and my twin girls are healthy thanks to Dr Kohn! read more

Dr.Kohn has been my OB GYN since 2002 he is super amazing. In 2002 i went into labor around 6pm I was already schedule for a C-section the next day,But my baby wanted to come out that night.Went to the hospital and Dr.Kohn was there for me to do my C-Section until around 11:30 at night since he waited for me to digest the dinner I had that evening. He delivered my baby boy and the next moring around 7am he was visiting me already in my room =) i will never have another OB hes great caring and listen to your concerns. And . Four years l8r he delivered my daughter.. read more

I was originally at Cedars Sinai but I wanted a closer, more personable hospital and a different doctor. So I toured Tarzana Hospital and both myself and my husband were VERY impressed. I have also continued to hear nothing but good things on pregnancy forums and review websites about both Tarzana Hospital and Dr. Kohn. Tarzana Hospital is supposed to be one of the best places in Los Angeles area to have your baby. I have a review on it as well if you go to my reviews. After settling on the hospital, I then picked Dr. Kohn because he was the only doctor I had ever seen that had 20+ 5 star reviews on Ratemds.com. They were all spread out over a period of years and years and I knew they were not fake reviews. I also kept hearing good things about him from baby forums & also from doulas I contacted. So I felt very confident that I was making the right decision. My first appointment with him took a bit long of a wait in the front office. The office has a VERY homey feel because it is the office of Dr. Rebecca Perlow as well. She is a very natural type doctor. I looked into her as well but in the end I wanted someone very experienced & knowledgeable with the medical side of it, and I will have my doula for the natural part of it. However I am aware that Dr. Kohn is also very supportive of natural birth and a bit old-fashioned. I.E. less C-Sections, no pushing for procedures you don't need just to save time, etc. You meet with him first in his office at his desk and he goes over your medical history, then you go to the exam room. There wasn't much to go over at that appointment as I was still early in my pregnancy, but I am sure as it gets closer to delivery there will be alot more information and questions and checking on the baby, etc. I will update when I have more to update with! =) read more

Great doctor who cares about his patients. I really recommend him for anyone who is looking for a great obgyn. He takes his time and listens to what u have to say read more

He's an amazing OB! He's very informative, friendly and just a wonderful doctor to talk to and to have help you through the journey of pregnancy and delivery. He has a warm and lighthearted approach and never made us feel rushed during appointments and never got annoyed with my boyfriend's endless questions! His staff is just as amazing, the girls in the office are just so sweet! He was there with us every step of the way and caught my preeclampsia at 37 weeks. We had to induce and after 36 hours of failed labor he delivered my baby boy via c-section. He made me feel that I was in the best hands throughout the whole ordeal and the 7 days I had to stay in the hospital to recover. He truly is a life-saver and genuinely cares about his patients. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for an OB and when we decide to have another child I won't go to anyone else but him. read more

After reading many reviews for many doctors on Yelp, I decided to give Dr Kohn a try. The purpose for my visit was a woman's wellness checkup. PROS Dr Kohn is very calm and gentle Listens and answers questions Nice, helpful staff Convenient location for me Offers referrals when needed Very short wait times both making appointment and actual visit Option to fill out forms and print at home to save time at visit CONS Parking options: paid or limited street Shares a busy office read more

Great doctor, very personable and he will take the time to answer any questions you might have with out feeling rushed.

I just had my first visit with him yesterday and I must say I am very happy I changed my doctor. He is extremely knowledgeable and gave me more detailed information that I wouldn't even know to ask. He explained exactly what to eat what not to eat how much of it to eat how much exercise to do how much my heart rate should be. He is just an amazing doctor. I'm very happy I changed my doctor and even more happy I now have him to deliver my muffin! 5 stars hands down for his knowledge and his consultation. read more

Amazing Doctor! I have been a patient of Dr. Kohn's for many, many years. He has always been my favorite doctor. He is calm. He will help put you at ease in any situation. He is extremely knowledgeable and he understands what you are going through. He is so gentle. I've had female OB/GYNs hurt me and I've never had that with Dr. Kohn. He will be there for you. I went into labor on a Monday. The nurses tried to send me home. I refused to leave. I insisted they call Dr. Kohn and he came straight from playing basketball with his son to check on me. The staff always knew me and greeted me by name. The office is always clean and organized. It's crowded, yes. But that's what happens with babies. They come when they damn well feel like it. You can't schedule a (natural) delivery! read more

Dr Kohn is one of a kind. He is extremely caring, kind, and intelligent. He takes his time to explain everything thoroughly and is understanding. I would choose him a million times over as my doctor and cant wait to have him deliver my baby when I get pregnant. Thank you a million times :) read more

First I want to say that Dr. Kohn and his staff are amazing. He delivered my first child into this world. I am always kind of skeptic going to a male OBGYN, but Dr. Kohn was very patient and very caring for me and my baby's. He is always willing to answer any questions and concerns during my pregnancy. I trust him and wished he could deliver my future children. I would recommend him to any of my family or friends who are looking for a great OBGYN. He is very experienced, family oriented and really takes the time to get to know all his patients. He is very careful with all his examinations and explains everything. He takes the time with you. To me that counts. Bottom Line: One of the best doctors in town. Staff is super friendly and helpful. They follow up with their patients all the time. Very recommended. read more

I agree to prior reviews that Dr Kohn is calm, he listens, he has good bedside manner and I don't doubt that he may be the best doctor for his loyal patients but... I went for a consult for a condition and my experience was a lesson learned because of overpriced and shocking health care bill. I was prescribed a specialist but was not told to get it after my period so the results were inconclusive. If you're practical like me, then you will also consider missing on this detail a waste of time and money. I had to call his office to follow up on some lab results and his assistant kept me waiting and then took the liberty of explaining the results herself instead of letting the doctor do it. To be fair, when I called again and requested for results to be sent almost two months later (so that I can consult another doctor who can help me), I received it by mail after a few days. If anything, this has been a very expensive experience that I don't intend to repeat but I'm definitely wiser and will clarify rates next time. read more

I've been seeing Dr. Kohn for nineteen years. Dr. Kohn is kind, wise, patient, understanding, and a true gentleman. He is soft-spoken which helps in uncomfortable situations. I had a miscarriage two days before my first appt with Dr. Kohn. He provided excellent medical care by being one step ahead of the situation. His calm demeanor reassured me that I was in the best of hands. I will be forever grateful for Dr. Kohn delivering my third child, if it wasn't for him, she wouldn't be here today. read more

Doctor Kohn is such an AMAZING doctor! He delivered my son and you truly feel like your in the best hands!! I can't even say enough good things about him!! read more

I would absolutely recommend Dr. Kohn! He is a wonderful doctor who takes his time with each of his patients. Very calm and thorough. He delivered by 2 children and I couldn't have asked for anyone better!!! His office staff is friendly and on top of their work. Great team! read more

dr Frederick Kohn is a very professional and knowledgeable doctor. He is so understanding and responsible, I will hundred percent recommend him. Before I saw dr Kohn, I had three different obgyn visits and was just unhappy and unsatisfied. Dr Kohn is the best!!! read more

Don't go here if you're a young woman getting a checkup. I went here for my first pap when I was 19, and it was a terrible experience. All my paps since have been very different from this first one, and I've been careful to only book checkups with women. I can't help but suspect he knew this was my first appointment and that I was too young and naive to call him out on unnecessary and inappropriate behavior. If you are very young or looking to book your first pap, I strongly recommend finding a woman. read more

My husband and I leave absolutely beaming when we leave Dr. Kohn's office. We were referred to him by our perinatologist when we confided that we were unhappy with our delivery doctor and immediately fell in love. He is warm, personable, has a fantastic sense of humor, sooo knowledgeable and my husband and I both feel like we are in such good hands. Not only does he thoroughly and patiently answer all of our questions (this is our first baby!) but he offers incredible guidance. You cannot go wrong with Dr. Kohn as your doctor. I can't recommend him enough! read more

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Dr. Kohn and he's staff. He's by far the BEST OB-GYN anyone can ask for! Kind, caring, gentle, thoughtful, and by far the most patient person I have met. From my first meeting with him both my husband and I knew Dr. Kohn was the perfect fit. He listens to all your questions and takes time to answer them. After having the worst experience with my last OB I was ecstatic to Dr. Kohn. He delivered my daughter last September and was I couldn't have asked for a better experience if there is such a thing with an emergency c-section. Thank you Dr. Kohn and staff for your amazing service. read more

Dr Kohn is literally the best doctor I have ever had. I have been seeing him since I was like 18 and got my first PAP. I saw a review talking negatively about this office and the behavior of Dr Kohn and staff, and all I can say is that is WRONG. His nurses and the staff are so amazing, they are always so nice and willing to help. Dr. Kohn himself is super sweet and always answering any questions you have. I have been to other doctors when I moved away for college and I have to say Dr. Kohn is the best. He delivered my first baby last year and the whole process was amazing. He always listen to your wants and does his best to accommodate you. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for a great doctor if you are pregnant or even if you are not. I can't say enough positive things about him and his staff. I just love each experience I have here and that is a lot coming from me because I usually do not like going to the doctor's office. read more

Five stars are not enough to represent how fantastic Dr. Kohn and his staff all are! They are professional and compassionate and genuinely care for all their patients. I absolutely adore Dr. Kohn and highly recommend him and his staff!! Thank you for all that you do... always!! :) read more

By far the best doctor, let alone ob/gyn, doctor you will find! He is caring, patient and clearly tells the patient everything they need to know. He delivered my daughter and has been my gyno for years now. He took excellent care of me when my pregnancy started taking a turn for the worst. I go out of my way to ensure that I have insurance he takes just so I can continue seeing him. read more

Every nurse I spoke with at the hospital prenatally, would ask me who my doctor was. When I said, "Dr. Kohn," each and every one of them told me he was the best. "He delivered all my kids.", "Oh, you have nothing to worry about, in that case.", and "He is the best." Literally, I heard nothing but awesome feedback. Then, when it was time for me to deliver, I finally understood why. Dr. Kohn was calm, cool, collected, and physically and mentally strong. My baby was facing the wrong way, and he flipped the kid around inside me, to get him out without a c-section. Giving birth is not for everyone, but if you're going to do it, make sure you have a doctor like Fred Kohn. read more

Dr. Kohn is amazing. I've been seeing him for more than 15 years - I have had uterine surgery with him, which was very successful. I'm now entering menopause and he has been wonderful. He is smart, kind, thorough and skilled. The best. It took me a lot of years to find such a great doctor. read more

I have been meaning to write this review since my daughter was born nearly two years ago. I've been busy raising her and haven't gotten around to it but even after two years my appreciation of how well Dr. Kohn handled my medical care has not faded. I cannot thank him enough for being so calm, respectful and knowledgeable during every step of my pregnancy, delivery and thereafter. I developed health complications that lead me to have to sway pretty far from my desired "birth plan" but Dr. Kohn allowed me to do as much as I safely could the way I wanted to. He explained everything about the situation in detail and gave his professional opinion, he even went to seek a second opinion from another doctor just to confirm what he believed were the best next steps, and then allowed me to make the decision for myself based on the information. He was very patient, stayed very calm and positive, didn't push me to do anything or have any treatment that I didn't want or wasn't ready for, and always made me feel like he was putting my best interest first both medically and emotionally even though it was likely much less convenient for him. I had a somewhat traumatic experience with another doctor after Dr. Kohn had gone home after my delivery due to some complications that arose some hours later. When he heard what had happened the next morning he came to check on me immediately and sent in a caseworker to discuss my experience with me and make sure I was ok emotionally. Its probably not difficult to find a doctor who is competent and can deliver your baby and keep you both safe and healthy, but it is very hard to find a doctor who can do all of that in the face of complications and stay extremely calm, reassuring, and sensitive to how important and big this experience is to a woman emotionally as well as physically. Many doctors just focus on keeping mom and baby healthy and leave no room in their process to take in to account how intensely it all effects the woman emotionally. "You're alive and your baby is here alive and well, that's all that matters" is something I've heard of doctors telling women when they have something to say about how traumatic their delivery was. That is definitely not Dr. Kohn's approach. He seems very aware and sensitive to the fact that this is a huge life altering experience to a woman and if our emotions are disregarded during the process, it can stay with us for a long time. I am so grateful that he was the doctor I had for my pregnancy and delivery. After my sister has a terrible first labor and delivery experience with another doctor, she switched to Dr. Kohn for her second pregnancy and couldn't have been happier. I never once had to wait an extended period of time while seeing him in office which is very surprising because he has to deliver babies and these kinds of things aren't predictable. His office staff is friendly and professional as well. I know many women feel more comfortable with a female OB and that's understandable, but I would say Dr. Kohn is as sensitive, of not more than many female OB's I've worked with. I obviously highly recommend him. read more

I changed to Dr. Kohn when I was 20 weeks pregnant because I felt like my previous doctor wasn't answering my questions. After I explained this to Dr. Kohn during our initial appointment, from that point on he answered every single question I had with great detail. He was also great at explaining the rational behind any decision I wasn't sure about. I'm a nervous first time mom, and he has a very calm demeanor that did a lot to reassure all my fears. When I handed him my birth plan, he read through it and was very supportive of what I had included. A lot of what I had put (such as delayed cord clamping and immediate skin to skin) was already standard for him. When I decided I was willing to get induced (one week overdue) he was very supportive, and when I opted for the epidural after 11 hours of progressing (after being strongly in favor of having an all natural child birth) he was also very supportive, but never pushed me to opt for either. During the birth he was super calm and encouraging, which was great since towards the end my energy started to dwindle. The entire time I felt like I was in great hands. Both before and after the birth I had to call with questions and concerns, and every time he called back and made sure all my questions were answered before getting off the phone. When we decide to have a second child I'll definitely have Dr. Kohn as my OB again. read more

Hands down A+++++ FANTASTIC doctor! Dr. Kohn truly loves his job & it's very evident in how he treats his patients. He always treated my husband & I with respect & answered all of our questions. I would highly recommend him to anyone & everyone!! A huge thank you to Dr. Kohn & his office staff for my amazing prenatal care & memorable delivery! read more

I found Dr Kohn late in my pregnancy. My insurance switched and I needed a new doctor. I was also high risk so I was nervous about seeing someone new so late in the game. I couldn't have asked for anyone better to help me my last few weeks and during my delivery. He's very kind and takes his time. His staff is superior as well and very friendly. I will be staying with him for years to come. read more

The best obgyn I have ever experienced. I had my first baby girl 2 years ago. Dr Kohn is very patient, understanding and knowledgable. He answers any questions you have with no rush. The most important feeling he gives you is that your safe and in good hands. I ended up having an unplanned c-section but thanks to Dr. Kohn everything went well. read more

Dr. Kohn is honestly one of the most amazing, supportive and compassionate doctors I know. I found him using yelp and all the good reviews are 100% true. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a good OBGYN. He helped me with my first pregnancy and delivered my baby with proper care and support addressing every complication that came along the way with great detail. read more

I can't say enough good things about this Doctor! I was hesitant at first, because I've never had a male doctor before and I wasn't too excited about a guy Obgyn.... but honestly, couldn't ask for a better doctor. He is so patient, and respectful, and down to earth. Any questions I've had, he takes his time explaining things and never makes me feel rushed. It's really comforting to know I have a doctor who really cares about his patients to help me through my first pregnancy. His staff and nurses are amazingly sweet as well.... read more

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Kohn. He's a wonderful doctor with the best bedside manner of any doctor I've ever met. He is a very soothing presence no matter the situation! When my husband and I decided to try for kids, I spent a lot of time online looking at different OBs in my area. Dr. Kohn was well reviewed on every single website that I found, and I certainly understand why. He has helped me through 2 miscarriages and 2 successful pregnancies with my two sons. He's very thorough, and really takes the time to (calmly) explain the pros and cons to everything. It allowed me to be actively involved in every decision we made during my pregnancies. He tends to err on the side of caution and I knew I could trust his recommendations and that he wasn't pushing any agenda, which I feel is really important when working with an OB as there are so many difficult decisions to be made. He allowed me to be confident in my pregnancies and I really enjoyed my pre-natal visits. Even though he is busy, I never once felt rushed during any visit and he always took the time to answer all my questions (no matter how silly they seemed) and to ask about my family. His office staff are also great. Griselda and Anna are a pleasure to work with and helped me stay on top of all my disability paperwork, EDD claim status, etc. Truthfully, I wish he could be my doctor for everything! read more

This man is a gift from God. I found Dr. Kohn by searching for best Doctor's in Tarzana and he came up. I made an appointment after reading great reviews about him. I went to him for a second opinion due to fibroids on my uterus which caused my uterus to be enlarged. When he sat down with me and my daughter to go over my report, I was so impressed with his knowledge and how polite he was I ended up not going back to my OBGYN because she didn't explain much to me regarding my problem. Dr. Frederick Kohn did my hysterectomy 4 weeks ago and he did such a excellent job. I had no pain and no bleeding after surgery. I am blessed to have such a great Doctor as Doctor Kohn! He came to see me in the hospital for the 2 days I was in there to make sure I was doing well. He took the time and went to the waiting room to talk with my girls after my procedure was done. He is personable, friendly and easy to approach and talk to. His staff Michelle and Griselda are very sweet, accommodating and helpful. They are all professionals in this office!!!!! I would recommend Dr. Frederick Kohn to everyone who needs a hysterectomy done. He is a gift from God to bring healing and health to His people. I prayed for a great doctor and God answered my prayer. I pray that more Doctor's show care and compassion like Dr. Kohn. God Bless You Dr. Kohn and your Staff!!!!! Anne Dirks read more

I was in search of a good Obgyn and a friend of mine referred me to Dr. Kohn. He truly is the best. All the wonderful things you read about him in the reviews are true. He delivered both of my babies and even with the challenges I had during the pregnancies Dr. Kohn was always so kind hearted , trustworthy, gentle, with excellent bedside manners. Griselda and the rest of his office staff are first class as well. I highly recommend him to anyone. I love this Dr.! read more

Iv made my appt a month ago and now that it's time to go in they say I can't due to insurance problems I'm so mad . Don't know about the dr but the staff is not very smart . I really needed to see the dr . read more

So Far so Good. I was referred to Dr. Kohn from one of my mommy groups for my second pregnancy. I did not have the greatest doctor experience with my first. I like that he is very calm and covers all of the bases. He sits down with you to answer questions and go over concerns. I just feel more relxed about this pregnancy with him. His office can be busy but I take that as a good thing and of course he delivers babies so I expect that. I will update after the birth. read more
