Locum Tenens Surgical Coverage
Dr. Cohn has provided locum tenens general surgical coverage since 1997. He is a Harvard-trained, board-certified general surgeon who maintains active licenses in New Hampshire, Maine, and Vermont. He was recertified in general surgery by the American Board of Surgery January 2006.
Prior to obtaining his MBA from the Tuck School at Dartmouth, Dr. Cohn was Associate Professor of Surgery at Dartmouth and Chief of Surgical Oncology at the VA at White River Junction, VT. Everywhere that he has worked, he has interfaced seamlessly with physicians and allied healthcare professionals, as evidenced by the following comment:
Dr. Kenneth H. Cohn has provided locum tenens general surgery coverage at my hospital since 2001. Ken helped us out tremendously when one of our general surgeons left, and it took several years to recruit another. His coverage allowed the two remaining surgeons to have a break from every other night coverage and to take family vacations knowing that their patients would be covered. Everyone who worked with Ken enjoyed his company and valued his surgical judgment and operative skill. He was such a favorite of nurses, physicians, and administrators that we offered him a full-time position at our hospital.
We also appreciated Ken’s insights into physician engagement and leadership. Ken helped us start a process to improve our efforts in this regard, which has begun to pay off for us.
