Kenneth A Rosen, MD

Kinda like the other reviews suggested, the service was rushed. I get it though. He did help me with what I needed and I felt he was nice enough. I would go back, mostly bc this is what my insurance covers.

I didn’t feel he gave me a thorough enough of an examination. I have a history of skin cancer and his idea of examining me was peeking under my clothes. And the wait was long.

made appt with Dr. Rosen, Pereira. P. A came, he was willing to leave, (he is a very nice person) i told him my appt was w dr. Rosen but, he was very nice & i decided to have him c me, I tried cream i told me for dermatitis, it got better but never disappeared, I have to go bk but been very busy & work, but patients should decide if they want to b switched to another dr, after waiting for 1.5hr, I just wanted to get it over with, I would probably had to wait at least another ½he. very full waiting room, I got there one hr bfore appt to have enough time for paper work, a couple of people got there much after2pm (my appt time) & were called in bfore me (??!)

My appointment was almost an hour late.
That’s how it started, and the waiting room was pretty miserable with crying children and no windows.
I was finally directed to an office and sat on the crinkly paper. I sat almost 20 more minutes before I was seen. I had a lot of reading to do for school that week, so I pulled out one of my smaller textbooks and got some work done.
The doctor came in unannounced. «What are you reading?»
«Homework for my graduate degree.»
«What’s it about?»
«The controversy surrounding the exhibition of the Enola Gay at the Smithsonian museum in the 90s.»
«Let me tell you, that happened because your generation has no idea what it was like to go through World War II.»
In my head, «Even you aren’t that old.»
Dr Rosen was an ancient crotchety bigot who actually recommended that I could solve my acne by having a baby. After telling him off the bat I was not interested in, nor would I consider acutane, he tried to persuade me for the course of almost *another hour.* During a follow up phone call (that was days late), he left a message that included the phrase «let me know when you’d like to set up your appointment to discuss acutane treatment.»
Never again.

This doc knows his stuff– really… he doesn’t need to cut everything off your skin to send to the lab to find out what it is. I went to another derm for a while who did that, what did he go to school for then? I docked a couple stars bc of the wait time and his personality.

Had appointment for 10 30 called me into another waiting room at 12:00 didn’t see the doctor tell 12:30
Ridiculous !!! I had an appointment!!!

My parents have been visiting Dr. Pereira, who works with Dr. Rosen, for many years. He has treated my father’s skin cancer and in the process, has spent many hours just chatting with him, so my father has gotten to know him well. He has excellent bedside manner, so when I needed to see a dermatologist for a case of dermatitis, despite the fact the office is so far from me (I live on the beach), I was willing to come here. You see, good, friendly doctors are hard to come by, so when you find one, especially when recommended by a family member, you have to sometimes be open-​minded enough to drive a few miles to get good care.
The building is nothing fancy from the outside, it’s actually rather spartan, both inside and outside, but there is always ample parking, which is huge if you’re running late and don’t have time to circle around for 10 minutes to find a spot. The best advice I can give you is to park near the staircase, as the office is on the 2^nd floor of building 100, and there is no elevator on site. I found myself walking almost the entire perimeter of the building trying to find the staircase.
As a new patient, I had several forms to fill out and as is the case with new patients, I expected to be given low priority and end up in the waiting room for an hour, but I was not there more than 10 minutes before I was called. This worked out great for me as I had to go to work. The doctor was in shortly, and he was a young guy with a big smile. I was not expecting this, as my father can sometimes be ageist, so I expected an older, more serious man, but the smile put me at ease. He shook my hand and I discussed my issues with him, He took a quick look, and noticed I had skin tags, and offered to burn them off. That was actually one of the reasons I came, as they hurt (especially one near my collarbone that would bleed whenever the seat belt would cut into it). My mother gets skin tags often as well, and he burns them off. It’s genetic unfortunately, so I probably will need to come back in the future when more start growing back. It took him about 10 minutes to remove about 20 of them (free of charge, which is awesome). When he was done, he suggested a sunscreen for skin protection (blue eyes + fair skin = higher risk of skin cancer) that repels the sand, and to keep a moisturizer for my hands by my desk, as I am constantly washing my hands, which causes a lot of skin dryness issues like eczema.
In this day and age when doctors are rushing to squeeze in several appointments in one day, sometimes the doctors rush through and don’t have the time to give you the care or attention you need. I was glad that although he was fast and friendly, he was thorough and did his job well.

Arrival time: 8:50am
Appointment time 8:55am
Time we actually saw doctor 10:05 am.
I waited a long time however… it was worth it. Doc came in the exam room and interacted with both my kids like if he gave birth to them. He joked with them, tickled them, and asked them questions. He was soooooo friendly by the time my son sat on the exam table he was sooo comfortable the examination was a breeze. Staff called me the day before the appointment and remind me about the schedule.
Doc took one look and knew exactly what it was. Gave me a prescription for the magic ointment as well as a sample and Viola!!! 2 weeks later my little ones
boo boo was solved. Staff is nice, helpful, and accommodating. Waiting room
has plenty of seating as well as a TV to keep you entertained (no time to pick scabs of zips!). Downstairs is plenty of parking. If you need to use the restroom the office staff will gladly provide with the key. Located near baptist hospital in a white tall building.
Feel better.

The office is very clean and has lots of room for seating in the waiting area. The office is located near Baptist Hospital on Kendall Drive and 87 Ave., lots of parking and he’s located on the second floor.
Great staff and Dr., very helpful and will go over any questions you have. He is also very funny and starts the conversation with a joke when he comes into your waiting room. It also helps that his staff is very friendly and help out with any questions too.
