Andrew Rosen, MD

Best doctor I’ve EVER had (and I have a lot). After being misdiagnosed multiple times by other doctors, he knew my problem right away — chronic exertional compartment syndrome. Not only did he diagnose me properly and quickly, but he recognized my need to be operated on as soon as possible and was able to fit me in within the month. He was completely open and honest about everything including his experience with my rare condition. I’m so grateful for all of his advice (I wanted to do both legs at once, he recommended one at a time — he was right) and his continued care and bedside manner over a year after surgery. He has graciously accepted my request to be a reference for me which is beyond what a doctor is required to do for a patient. He never stops being the nice helpful doctor I met over a year ago. He made my life goals possible! Forever grateful for everything Dr. Rosen has done for me :)

Went in not being able to run at all. I went 4 weeks before I was to start marathon training and I ended up running NYC and a surprise marathon, Philly. Wouldnt have been able to do it without him. Fixed my knee/​ITband!

After months of shoulder pain and physical therapy following a shoulder injury last summer, I was referred to Dr. Rosen for a surgical consult. Dr. Rosen is honest and straight to the point without being pushy or intimidating like some surgeons can be.
Long story short– the surgery was a success! I had minimal pain and swelling just after the surgery and none to speak of in the 6 weeks since. I was impressed by the efficient manner in which everything was handled by both the surgeon and the office itself. Also worth mentioning is the fact that there are almost no visible scars where the incisions were made.
Shoulder surgery can be tough, but Dr. Rosen and his colleagues make the process as smooth as possible. His surgical coordinator Franchesca in particular is really on top of her game. I had several different insurance benefit needs, all requiring stacks of different paperwork, and Franchesca made sure that each and every form was complete and accurate before sending anything off. This made things much less stressful for me, knowing that all of the paperwork was taken care of in an efficient and timely manner.
I don’t wish shoulder surgery on anybody, but if you must, I’d highly recommend Dr. Rosen.

Searching for a new orthopedic surgeon after a number of dissatisfied encounters, we came upon Dr. Rosen. My wife and I have been going to him for the past two years. My wife is very active — spinning, zumba, pilates — and has had problems with her arthritic knee. Dr. Rosen has been a God-​send with his diagnosis and treatment. I had a problem with my knee for 20 years. Two weeks ago, he operated on it. After surgery, I didn’t even need to take any pain relief. I enjoy his manner, his wisdom and his treatment. He takes the time to explain things to us and his staff is very supportive. I recommend him to anyone who is in need of his specialty.

I am a veteran Knee Surgery Patient. I have had three prior knee surgeries (all on the left knee) since my late teens.
Now that I am approaching middle age; sure enough, in September my right knee gave out. I saw Dr. Rosen. What I thought was a bad sprain was, unfortunately, a completely torn ACL.
Aw, crikey. I was facing Knee Surgery #4. Never fear, Dr. Rosen is here.
He repaired me in October. Admittedly I have experience with knee pain post-​op. My three prior sugeries had hellish recoveries and debilitating pain.
Not this time. I was in physical therapy 72 hours later (riding a bike, no less) and I was back to work — taking the bus! — in 7 days. I honestly say I didnt have any pain that a couple of advil and some ice couldn’t cure. My recovery was textbook. I was working out three times a week, doing physical therapy, and feeling altogether amazing. Dr. Rosen called me his «ACL Poster child.»
Then the black hand of fate tripped me. Actually, it slipped me up on the ice, twisting and shearing my knee. Searing pain told me that only one thing had happened: i had torn the ACL Dr. Rosen had just repaired.
Talk about devastated: I was facing a fifth surgery — and my second in just under four months.
Dr. Amazing to the rescue. He reassured me that everything would be fine; and I’d recover even more quickly than the first time. I was skeptical: ACL revision is notoriously difficult.
I don’t know how he does it. His surgical technique is just short of miraculous. Today as I write this, four weeks after an ACL revision I am again back on my feet, am walking up stairs, around town, and I haven’t taken an advil in two weeks.
If you have the unfortunate luck to need knee surgery, I cannot recommend Dr. Rosen any more highly. To boot, he has a fabulous bedside manner, explains everything you need to know in detail, and is available by email to answer questions — no matter how small.
(of note: Dr. Rosen is a staff doctor for the NYC Roadrunners and he is an elite marathon runner! Damn, the guy is invincible)
Im proud to be his «poster child» and am forever grateful for his healing me, once and for all.
