“Dr Rosenbaum was great! He was able to diagnose my condition quickly which other doctor's hadn't been able to over a couple of months. Wish I'd seen him earlier!”
Nivedita N.March 4, 2020
“Had seen four different doctors before going to see Dr Rosenbaum
They couldn’t fix my eye problem. After two months I found Dr Rosenbaum on zoc doc.
Dr Rosenbaum was able to diagnose and prescribe the right medicine. I was feeling better in a couple days”

Good Dr, very nice apersonnel, neat office, and short waiting time. I’ve been seeing Dr .Roseblun for 4 years and never got disappointed.
November 30, 2018Natalia N.Verified patient
I've been seeing Dr. Rosenbaum for the past 2 years and he's always fantastic. One of the first things that I checked before I switched jobs was that he would still be covered under my new insurance. He's very professional, covers all basis, shares any necessary information and is clear about laying out any changes in treatment plans.
Wait time at this office always varies, so be prepared to have either no wait or to have to sit in the waiting room for up to an hour.
July 12, 2018Elaine L.Verified patient
I read other reviews and made sure I called his office to confirm my appointment....good thing since she said they don't use ZocDoc and they showed no appointment!
I waited over an hour after being told he was on time. Then when I was seen, he told me right off that he does not handle contact lense prescriptions....only medical issues.
He apologized but really made me feel like I clearly misunderstood. I don't think so! Never again.
More than 1 year agoJan N.Verified patient

Dr. Rosenbaum's exam was thorough, he discussed my condition with me, and answered all my questions. He is the uveitis specialist I had been looking for and I will see him again. If you schedule through Zocdoc it is best also to call to confirm the appointment.
