Dr. Rosenthal, unlike some of the other doctors I've seen, really took the time to listen to my story and gave me insight that I haven't heard before. He's a good guy and knowledgable
August 15, 2016Bethany L.Verified patient
One of the most enjoyable doctor visits I've ever had. Incredibly nice and old school in a good way, and he clearly cares so much about his patients. We spent a lot of time chatting like we'd known each other for years, even though it was my first visit. He helped me immensely with my knee injury (I'm a strongman competitor). Highly recommend!

He wasn't able to diagnose my bone bruise and said it was just an inflammation which would go in 1 month but I have been in severe pain since 3 months and had to go to another doctor and after some MRIs it was found that I had a bad bone bruise.

I wish I could've gotten an X-Ray just because that's what I said I wanted in the notes, and I was disappointed that I didn't get an X-Ray

Pleasant and professional.
December 28, 2015John P.Verified patient
Nice enough doctor. Went in for a quick knee examination and was advised to take anti-inflammatory medication and lose weight. Wasn't specific about how to lose weight.
September 8, 2015Jefferson S.Verified patient
Its like going to see your family member! He was so plesant and personable. Dr. Rosenthal took the time to go over each issue and walked me over to orthopedic department across the street to make sure i got the right equipment. Lorraine the office admin was also plesant and nice offered water when no other office really offers anything. Total experience was a VIP

August 12, 2015Vidhi R.Verified patient
He was so nice and helpful! Did a brief exam and consultation to look at my injury, then sent me across to BCH for X-rays, and then I came back to look at the X-rays and do follow up. It was all very fast and efficient. I hardly waited through the whole process. Dr. Rosenthal was thorough in his explanations and in discussing the possible causes of my pain. I'm glad I saw him and look forward to returning should the need ever arise.
August 4, 2015Alice P.Verified patient
Dr Rothensal and Lorraine are very friendly and considerate. The office is on the right side of BCH on first floor, not easy to be noticed. Public garage parking next building for $8 min.
February 3, 2015Wan L.Verified patient
My visit with Dr. Rosenthal was great. The receptionist, Loraine, was very welcoming and warm. She dealt with me right away. Dr. Rosenthal was very comforting and professional the entire visit. He was so helpful and made it seem like he really cared to help me. I would definitely recommend Dr. Rosenthal.

Our visit was fantastic. Both my daughter Ali and I now feel more assured that her back pain will begin to heal. It has been a long road and we are very grateful that Dr. Rosenthal was able to fit us into his schedule. Lorraine was extremely helpful and very understanding. Everything about our visit exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much!

excellent. Dr. Rosenthal saw me once I walked in the door. I was earlier than my scheduled appointment but he took me in anyway. We discussed the painful area in my hand and he examined it very closely and determined that an x-ray was required and ordered imaging immediately. The x-ray was fast and shortly after we reviewed the images together and he explained everything in good detail.
