Dr. John Cooke, MD, LLC 516 Bloomfield Avenue, Montclair, NJ 07042

"When I first went to Dr. Cooke, I was at my lowest in my life. I didn’t know where to turn or what to do. He has helped me tremendously and I am so much better because of Dr. Cooke."

"I have been a patient of Dr Cooke since April 2022. A few months in to COVID, my wife approached me and said that my mannerisms had changed and seemed more ADHD like then they had been in the past. At that point, I started seeing another Dr to discuss potential solutions. That doc saw me for 15 mins, barely knew anything about me, and moved on to his next patient. In April 2022, the psychiatrist I had been seeing for two years got up and left his practice without warning. I was left lost, and felt abandoned. Luckily I met Dr Cooke. The time and effort Dr Cooke puts in to get to know his patients up front, shows his caring bedside manner. However, what is most impressive is that he is ACTUALLY a caring and explanatory doctor. My initial psychiatrist just started treating symptoms, while Dr Cooke recommended getting as much data up front before making decisions. What we found out was that, I most likely had ADHD most of my life but COVID-19 just exacerbated some of my symptoms. As such, Dr Cooke changed my medication schedule and rather than treating symptoms, is working on treating me, his patient. I am very happy to have found Dr Cooke! Thank you for your help in guiding me through my own gray matter!"

"I have been a patient of Dr. Cooke 's for approximately 3 years. I couldn't ask for a better doctor. His reliability and professionalism is unparalleled compared to more than at least 5 doctors I've seen over the years. I feel very fortunate and greatful for his guidance. As long as the patient is willing to commit to their own well-being, amazing things can happen. Therapy is in on going process not a simple fix. Moving forward in life isn't as overwhelming as it once was. Thank you Dr Cooke."

"I have been a patient of Dr. Cooke’s since 2014. He has helped me through some really tough periods over this course of time and I don’t know where I would be today without his help. Dr. Cooke has a kind, empathetic approach and really makes me feel comfortable to talk about any issues I am having. He is extremely intelligent and experienced in his field and has always given me his honest feedback and advice in ways that have significantly improved my mental health over the years. We worked together to find the right medications for me and continue to meet regularly to assess their efficacy and my overall progress. He is always quick to respond in between appointments and is never difficult to get in touch with. He has gone above and beyond for me on many occasions, from calling pharmacies on my behalf to adjusting my treatment plan to making the time to fit me into his schedule on short notice when it was urgent. I highly recommend Dr. Cooke to anyone looking for help with their mental health for any condition. He is a great doctor and he really cares about his patients and his field."

"Dr. Cooke was there when I needed him the most! I have been struggling with anxiety for several years, and unfortunately I was not being treated correctly. I consider myself so fortunate for having found Dr. Cooke. I was really in a bad place. Dr. Cooke was patient and understanding. During our sessions, he always makes me feel so comfortable and I know I can talk to him about anything without any judgment. Working together, we finally found the right medication combination for me, and from then on I have continued to make progress. Every session is always so refreshing with Dr. Cooke. He always provides the assistance and suggestions that I need to feel confident that I can manage and that my mental health is in good hands. He’s constantly providing me with coping mechanisms and cheering me on when I felt I had no one to do so for me. He’s always telling me how proud he is of me! How wonderful is that to hear from a doctor. He is so encouraging, knowledgeable, and even has a great sense of humor. I always look forward to my next session with him. However, he always makes himself available to me; I can email if I’m having a bad day and he usually writes back to make sure that I’m OK and always remembers to bring it up in our next session. Dr. Cooke is absolutely great!"
