About Jesse S Cohen

Jesse Cohen, MD, is a University of Florida assistant professor of neurology and a neurologist at UF Health Jacksonville. Dr. Cohen received his medical degree from Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. He completed his neurology residency and subspecialty training in movement disorders at the University of Pennsylvania.
