Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I have seen Dr. Rosen a few times and been to the office for various visits several times. I was extremely disappointed at my last visit with him however. I understand their practice is focused on diabetes care, but I was referred to an endocrinologist due to amenorrhea. At my first appt, my hormone levels were tested and a treatment plan was proposed. At my most recent visit, my blood work didn’t give me any info I’m interested in (they didn’t run the correct labs). Dr. Rosen informed me I had lost weight and that my A1C was good. I tried to ask him about my PCOS symptoms, and he told me to speak to my gynecologist...but is he not a hormone specialist? It was like he had no idea what patient he was with. Disappointing.

I have also seen Dr.Rosen along with Dr.Hellman for about thirty years. He is a remarkable doctor and has been a key part of my care. I would recommend him as an outstanding and brilliant physician .

Dr. Rosen is so low-key that I sometimes take his excellent doctoring for granted. This is a man who walking past an open door heard me explain to the admitting nurse why I had a boot on my foot from a broken ankle. He backed up, asked me to explain how I broke the ankle (in a slip off a half-inch high sidewalk) and ordered a bone density scan. This led to the discovery my calcium was going into the bloodstream, I need a parathyroid gland removed and to get everything straightened out before rotator cuff surgery. Dr. Rosen guided me through the surgery process for the parathyroid and was even there when I had the shoulder surgery. I will always be thankful for his talent and concern.
