My first impression of Dr. Rosen was good. He was very personable and talkative. He also seemed to have a sense of humor. His office staff seemed very attentive and caring. I saw his nurse, dietician, exercise physiologist, psychologist and the Dr. on the first visit (it took 5hrs.!). If I had to pick one thing I liked least about Dr. Rosen it would be that I had to wait a very long time for him and then he seemed to be in a hurry. Aftercare was emphasized as was pre-op preparation. I was given the diet plan to practice for a month as well as an exercise program.
I have many questions to ask when I go back on June 14th for my next visit. Overall, I was very pleased and rather overwhelmed with the information the I received at my first appointment.

I was expecting Dr. Salvino but Dr. Rossen came in. He was very kind and down to earth. He explained things to me, and read my "Huge" file I brought to him just from last year, with my illness. He told me he would have Dr. Salvino assit him because my case is more complicated, so he wanted the both of them to do my surgery. He made me feel very at ease. I liked him alot.
