    This doctor is excellent. He listened, understood my case, provided follow up instructions, and showed genuine kindness and concern for me. Would absolutely recommend him as the best doctor I've ever received treatment from.

    I had an incredible experience with Dr Rosen, he is one of the most amazing doctors I have worked with. He took the time to thoroughly explain all my options to me, was honest in his advice and opinion, and showed genuine care and concern for my current situation. At such a difficult time in my life, his empathy and support helped put me at ease and relieved some stress related to my new cancer diagnosis. My appointment with him significantly impacted my mood and my outlook as I begin my first chemo treatments. At such a scary time, he has made a significant impact. Please send this message to him, I truly cannot thank him enough and am so grateful for his care.

    Dr Rosen is amazing. He called the day before the surgery to walk me through what to expect. We discussed concerns, risks and next steps after surgery. Day off he had his team review details of the procedure, risks and concerns.

    They explained the situation very well and are open to our questions.

    Dr Rosen is always a friendly face to see. Always makes me feel hopeful (with reason!).

    While the doctor was friendly and seemed well-intentioned, he did not seem in the loop / informed about my care and conditions. I have found that UCSF medical professionals across departments so far do not seem to communicate or share information effectively with one another and so it has been my job to consistently ensure that each of my providers is on the same page.

    Dr Rosen was amazing. He was so compassionate, kind, and validated me when I had concerns. He went above & beyond to address very sensitive matters with my surrogate. I'm grateful & very fortunate to have him as my doctor.

    Great MD. Made the process smooth and comfortable.

    I have had nothing short of a horrific and demeaning experience with UCSF
    Jun 09, 2023
    Dr. Rosen is the best. Obviously smart, amazing bedside manner, and clearly has his patient's best interest in mind.

    Dr. Rosen has been good. Our care has been with his team - and I have appreciated the quality of communication. He is clear and empathetic, and I appreciate how he manages his practice.

    Dr. Rosen is the best-expert, encouraging, and experienced. I trust him with my fertility and cannot imagine trusting anyone more with our dreams or our eggs.
    Mar 08, 2023
    I've been seeing Dr Rosen for many years now and I'm grown accustomed to his style of care. If I could make a recommendation, I wish he could be more accessible for questions and/or provide rationale as to why I didn't get the results I was hoping for. I've had several setbacks and I have been rolling with the punches. But if Dr Rosen is showing that he is doing everything in his power to provide the best path forward versus just telling me what to do, I wouldn't be as disheartened with the process. I understand that some things are out of our control, but it would be nice to show some empathy when patients have had a rough journey.

    Dr. Rosen is my favorite doctor at UCSF. In addition to being the best RE out there (we met with 4 before we found and chose him), he is extremely kind, caring, empathetic, thoughtful, friendly, and willing to patiently listen and answer questions. He takes a thoughtful approach to fertility treatments and always eases our concerns and answers our questions. He's also friendly and personable, which is rare with all the doctors we met and even his peers that we sometimes saw during our retrieval cycles and fresh transfer. After that, we only do medicated frozen transfers to ensure we only work with him. Dr. Rosen is the best and we highly recommend him to any one!

    Dr Rosen Is wonderful. He treats me like a human being rather than a patient -Gets to know me, speaks frankly. Perfect balance between professional and personal. Great doctor all around
