Dr Rosen puts you right at ease from the minute that you meet him. He explains everything to you in simple terms and there isn't a question that is stupid to him. Life Weigh Bariatrics staff are all fantastic, helpful to the 'enth degree. The all are there to help you succeed in your goal to get thin. They will answer questions until you are blue in the face. Check Life Weigh Bariatrics web site for all of the information regarding their program. Their web site is www.lifeweighbariatrics.com They have a complete well rounded approach to your pre and post op care. I can honestly say that I do not have a negative thing to say about this group of doctors.

Dr. Rosen was an excellent, surgeon, advisor, coach, and friend throughout the preparation phase of the surgery. rnrnHe is interested in the complete solution, i.e not a quick fix. His team's focus on nutrition, exercise, precare, and after-care shows a true commitment to his patients.rnrnHe handled both my wife Leslie and my lapband installation. rnrnHe is the real deal both in the office and at the table. I was back on my feet in 6 hours, took a 6 hour car trip 40 hours after suirgery, and driving after 3 days.rnrnGary and Leslie Norgren

I didn't meet Dr. Rosen until my pre-op appointment. He was very relaxed and was easy to warm up to. He was willing to answer any questions and covered all the details (including possible complications) in an easy-to-understand manner. My support person and I both walked away with a very good impression of him, which has only gotten better over time. He definitely emphasizes aftercare by having you meet with a dietician and exercise physiologist only two weeks after having surgery. I had some problems with my heart rate after surgery and he kept close tabs on me until my other physicians were able to determine that the problem was with one of my medications. His office staff are some of the nicest and most caring people you would want to meet. I have always been treated well each time I have visited the office. I look forward to attending the monthly support group meetings. I have had nothing but good experiences with the team at LifeWeigh Bariatrics.

Dr. Rosen is a very kind and happy doctor. He was an excellent choice for anyone!rnrnHis staff is excellent, caring, and always available. They are great to work with.rnrnPre-care was so important and so stressed before I could have my surgery. Changing one's eating habits is not as easy as a \"snip snip\" and they are sure you practice all the steps necessary 'before' surgery, so you're well-acquainted with them after the procedure.rnrnI am self-pay and their staff was senstive to that, as well. They have payment plans, are reasonably priced, easy to get to in Chicago - and even the 'fills' are reasonably priced!rnrnI live in Indiana but make a point of driving 3-1/2 hours to be seen by Dr Rosen and his staff. That's the kind of care I want and receive at Life Weigh Bariatrics.

First Impression: Very knowledgablernrnStill excellent knowledge, patient, funny and kind.rnrnOffice staff, very professional.rnrnThe wish center, is a full program. I did a supervised diet and exercise program for 3 months prior to my surgery. I met with a nutrionist, exercise person and a psychiatrist as well as the other medical test.rnrnI feel surgical compentence ranks higher then bedside manner. I want someone who knows what they are doing and can handle a complication if one should arise. The nurses really are the ones who administer bedside manners.rnrnOverall, I would recommend Dr. Rosen and his staff to anyone. My husband was also impressed with Dr. Rosen's knowledge of the surgery procedure.

Dr. Rosen explained everything on a level that I could understand. He was very relaxed, never once rushed me. Always has a cute smile. You can tell he is compassionate about what he does. He really wants to help people. His staff has been great. They are in it for the long haul, not just getting you thru the surgery.

Dr. Rosen was very professional but showed great compassion and understanding. He made me feel very comfortable and eased alot of my anxiety about wls.rnrnHe emphasized a comprehensive program before and after to improve my success. Rating definitely a 10!

Very personablernI have not had any complications from the surgery. I can only assume that speaks to his surgical competence. He works with the WISH Center and the program is vey structed. If I did not have the accountability of this structure I would fail.

Dr. Rosen was very helpful and personal and took the time to answer all of my questions. He has a dry sense of humor, which I liked. I was very impresed with him.

He was very nice, to the point and explained everything in a good way.The office staff were also very nice and helpful and sped things along quickly. Dr. Rosen was very adimit about the after care and wants me to be very strict on everything I need to do. The Wish Center has an after care program. They all addressed the risks of the surgery largely, they were very informative and insightful. I rate him a 10 if that is the highest rank here.
