    Dr. Rosen is smart, caring, empathetic and a straight shooter. He does an incredible job of taking into consideration his patient's specific cases and needs and coming up with a course of action that is science and patient based. We feel so lucky to have him as a provider!

    I wish that the scope and timeline of the whole IVF process was laid out in a bit more clear way. I was surprised how long it took to get appointments and also had times I didn't understand why more tests were being ordered, which were delaying the process. Dr. Rosen was very kind and his caring nature made me feel hopeful and relaxed during the transfer.

    We have been (working) with Dr. Rosen since 2013 and look forward to working with him again. He is great. No complaints at all.

    I sat in my car after this visit and cried tears of relief to finally have a doctor who is really motivated and thoughtful and on my team. I just can't say enough how much I appreciated how much time and conversation I got to have with Dr Rosen. It's a HUGE difference from my prior clinic.

    Liz, Hanna and Taylor specifically have been amazing throughout all this process. Equally supportive and kind is Dr Rosen who helped us understand the context of our decisions and showed us a great amount of empathy for our situation and our desires to have a family. We feel so fortunate for the team that supported us all along the way.

    This doctor is excellent. He listened, understood my case, provided follow up instructions, and showed genuine kindness and concern for me. Would absolutely recommend him as the best doctor I've ever received treatment from.

    I had an incredible experience with Dr Rosen, he is one of the most amazing doctors I have worked with. He took the time to thoroughly explain all my options to me, was honest in his advice and opinion, and showed genuine care and concern for my current situation. At such a difficult time in my life, his empathy and support helped put me at ease and relieved some stress related to my new cancer diagnosis. My appointment with him significantly impacted my mood and my outlook as I begin my first chemo treatments. At such a scary time, he has made a significant impact. Please send this message to him, I truly cannot thank him enough and am so grateful for his care.

    Dr Rosen is amazing. He called the day before the surgery to walk me through what to expect. We discussed concerns, risks and next steps after surgery. Day off he had his team review details of the procedure, risks and concerns.
