Dr. Cohn is an attending neurosurgeon who operated on Derek Shepherd after his car accident.

History[]

Dr. Cohn was paged when the doctors operating on Derek noticed that his right pupil was blown. Dr. Cohn was at a dinner and they were told he'd be at the hospital within twenty minutes. Despite this, it took Dr. Cohn an hour and a half to arrive. When he got there, he scolded them for not getting a CT and paging him earlier. He then kicked Penny out of the room when she scolded him for not responding to his page in a timely manner. He operated on Derek's brain, but it was far too late and he was pronounced brain dead. Dr. Cohn apologized to Meredith, saying that he had long admired Derek's skill and technique.
