About

Dr. Rosen is the Chairman of the Department of Orthopedics and Rehabilitation at NewYork-Presbyterian Queens hospital, and an Associate Professor of Clinical Orthopedic Surgery at Weill Cornell Medicine.

He likes to play soccer for exercise, and his favorite thing to do is be home spending time with his family.

Why Medicine?

"I chose to go into medicine out of a desire to help make people healthy and I chose Orthopedic Surgery because it was a direct approach to "fixing" people and their bodies."

Why this practice?

"I built this practice from the ground up to serve the communities outside of Manhattan. I spent 10 years at The Hospital for Joint Diseases treating patients from the 5 boroughs of NY and realized that there was a need to bring the same high level of orthopedic care to Queens."
