“Omg, I’ve been trying to resolve a health problem for five months. I’ve seen three medical professionals five times, three X-rays, one cat scan, one mri. Today I got a diagnosis. Today I received hope and profound relief. I took a prescribed medicine and felt SO MUCH BETTER IN TWO HOURS. I am so grateful!! Fabulous doctor!”

“Dr Rosenstein is highly regarded. Firstly because his years of experience have given him knowledge that he can apply to a case quickly. I used him for a second opinion and I got one. Good thing I went to this very ethical man. ”

Outstanding surgeon!
May 8, 2024Michael L.Verified patient
Very thorough - especially impressed with the detailed description and demonstration of my issue (using a spine model). I was also impressed by a neuro SURGEON recommending non-surgical solutions as the first option.
March 26, 2024George D.Verified patient
I was thrilled to be able to get in to see a neurosurgeon so quickly! The nurse who brought me back was fantastic and so sweet and helpful. Dr. Rosenstein was great and explained everything to me very clearly. He ordered a brace for me and initially, I was unable to get the brace for 3 days but was very happily surprised when his office pulled some strings and I got one within the hour!

Dr. Rosenstein is very knowledgeable with an ability to clearly communicate your treatment options and the implications. He takes a very conservative approach and manages expectations carefully. He makes you feel very comfortable and willing to take the time to answer all your questions.
January 9, 2024Trevor R.Verified patient
Very good - knowledgeable - very little wait time - insurance is always the issue with treatment and visits but that has nothing to do with the doctor
April 25, 2022Josie F.Verified patient

It was nice to finally have a neurologist/neurosurgeon who didn't race through a bunch of tests I could pass if I was drunk. He actually took the time to check my nerve responses and reflexes, he listened to what I have been complaining about for 30 years now. I am thrilled that he is willing to run more tests/scans on my brain to see if there is something else contributing to all my nerve pain, balance issues, insomnia besides my Chiari Malformation. It's more than I could get from the last 6 neurologists who would show up 2 hours late for my appointment and hurry through my exam only to send me home telling me "there is nothing wrong with me to go home and enjoy my life" I haven't been able to work in 4 years I want answers and to be fixed so I can take my life back or if I just have to accept that I will most likely work again. I went from working full time and going to school full time to not being able to do anything since my brain injury in 2015. So I still have hope because I finally found a doctor who LISTENS!!!!

Dr. Rosenstein made a thorough examination. He explained my situation clearly in a way that helped me to understand my problem. He answerd all my questions and offered the reasons for his opinion.
