Care Philosophy
I believe in treating colon, rectal, and anal issues nonoperatively whenever possible. But when surgery is required, I use the latest technology and minimally invasive techniques, including robotic and laparoscopic surgery, to maximize safety, minimize scarring, and return patients to their healthy lives as quickly as possible.

Dr. Rosen is down to earth, he prepared me for what was to come, took his time with me and never made me feel rushed. I felt like I was his only patient when he was in the office to see him. Although I had to wait at times to see him, I knew he was giving the patient before me his total attention and I appreciated that he would do the same with me when it was my turn. He is personable, caring and was a real blessing!

There wasn't a long wait before seeing the Dr Rosen. He didn't rush the appointment. He was very direct and open to questions. He had scheduled an appt with the ostomy nurse who came in as soon as the doctor was finished. Patricia spent time with me and gave me lots of good info.
