Children see us differently because we care for them differently. Katelyn, age 7, sees Dr. Mittler as more than a surgeon—she sees a hero who’s as bright as the sun.
At Cohen Children’s, kids see us as more than doctors, nurses and therapists. They see heroes, rock stars, royalty, friends. And we see them differently, too— not as patients, but as children who deserve the very best. That’s why we’re ranked in nine specialties by U.S. News & World Report—and why we’re one of the nation’s best children’s hospitals.

It is a complete automotive repair facility that performs oil changes to motor changes and everything in between. Today, as in 1946, old-time values continue to be followed; each automobile gets vacuumed, has its windows washed, and you get a “sweet treat” from their attached general store. Cleanliness, honesty and integrity are of utmost importance to the owners, Eileen and Ronnie, and they are now servicing 2nd, 3rd and even 4th generations of family automobiles, not only from the neighborhood but from all over the tri-state area! Many of their techs are with them over 25 years – that speaks volumes! Stop in, say “hello”, check out their free oil change program and see why their best advertising is “word of mouth”. Open Monday – Saturday 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

It is a complete automotive repair facility that performs oil changes to motor changes and everything in between. Today, as in 1946, old-time values continue to be followed; each automobile gets vacuumed, has its windows washed, and you get a “sweet treat� from their attached general store. Cleanliness, honesty and integrity are of utmost importance to the owners, Eileen and Ronnie, and they are now servicing 2nd, 3rd and even 4th generations of family automobiles, not only from the neighborhood but from all over the tri-state area! Many of their techs are with them over 25 years – that speaks volumes! Stop in, say “hello�, check out their free oil change program and see why their best advertising is “word of mouth�.
