Donald J Rose, MD

Dr. Rose has done several procedures that resulted from numerous sports injuries. The results have all been amazing. I traveled up from Virginia to have something done; well worth the trip.

I recently tore my ACL skiing. I had Dr. Rose perform my surgery. He is one of the best doctors/​surgeons around! Top Notch! He used a hamstring graft for my reconstruction. From my initial consult to my surgery to my post op, I have received the best care! 7wks out of surgery I have full function back. I will most likely be cleared to return to running at 12wks post op! If you tear you ACL — Dr. Rose is the doctor to fix it and get you back to your life/​sports! Also, the staff is warm and friendly — I never had to wait long to see him. 3wks post op, I had a fall and was afraid I damaged my graft, I called the office and was told me to come straight over. I was seen in 5 minutes of walking into the office! I will say the Dr. Rose is very no nonsense and straightforward. Not a lot of coddling. But I would take a fantastic surgeon over bedside manner any day — I get that from my PT.

I went to this Dr for the first and last time last week. He seemed great but not worth the terrible attitude and rudeness of their office staff. Wow, if only I had recorded the interactions – not just with me – I think the Dr would be horrified at how he is represented. Listen ladies, I’d be bummed to work in a job like yours too, but most of your patients are there because they are in need of help. The least you could do is keep your bad attitude and meanness to yourself. Maybe work in a place where human interaction and some compassion are not job requirements?

I have been a patient of Dr Rose for over 20 years and my husband for the last 10 years. He is the best in his field and extremely responsive.
One time while my husband and I were on vacation traveling back through Mexico, we needed some advice for what was most probably a broken ankle on my husband. Dr Rose returned my call within a few minutes!!! and gave us advice on how to ensure that no additional damage was done to my husband’s ankle until we could see Dr Rose upon our return.
He answers all my questions and has helped me with the best advice for recuperating from ACL reconstructive surgery.
I strongly recommend Dr Rose!

I called these people when I was seriously injured and they told me over the phone without seeing me «that there is nothing we can do» what great health care professionals (insert sarcasm)

Just had knee surgery. Dr. Rose performed the surgery and it went amazing. Have been a dancer all my life and have only been going to see Dr Rose he is the best !!!

I was referred to Dr. Rose last year when we found out my daughter needed a tibial osteotomy. Getting an appointment was easy, he wasn’t rushing her in for the big surgery, in fact, he recommended a smaller surgery to get her out of pain. She opted for the osteotomy to insure her knee would stop dislocating. Surgery went unbelievably well and thanks to Dr. Rose her scarring is minimal. I was forewarned that this surgery leaves very large scars and I was shocked when he removed her bandages at our first post-​op visit and saw the small incisions he had made. Follow-​up surgery to remove the screw went smoothly as well. This year, Dr. Rose performed the same surgery on my daughter’s left knee and again, all went extremely well. I would not think of using any other orthopedic surgeon. Going into NYC can be a hassle but it is well worth it when you see the best! I can’t say enough about Dr. Rose. He even wiped my daughters tears in the recovery room after her second surgery. She asked to keep the screw from her first surgery and he explained that it has to be sent to pathology. When he saw her in recovery, he had taken a picture of the screw and emailed it to her. He really is a gifted surgeon who also cares!

I never have to wait long which is pretty awesome. Great dr. Very no nonsense and straightforward. I came in with ankle pain and after an xray, found out I had an os trigonum that was acting up. We tried rest, physio, and I changed my pointe shoes and ribbons to one’s that wouldn’t press on the area and aggravate it more but dr rose and I came to the decision that I would need surgery to finally get rid of the pain once and for all.

I have been seeing Dr. Rose for over 20 years. He is wonderful!
I have also had my mom see him and my friends. We all had surgery and the Dr. and staff made it easy as possible.
My situation was complicated and Maria always had time to review and resolve my issues.
He is the best… and when people boast about having the BEST DOCTOR… you know they are speaking about dr. Rose!

My husband was Dr. Rose’s patient for years, and sadly he doesn’t accept our current insurance. This guy is a GOD, super-​respected by his peers and anyone who knows about orthopedics. He operated on my husband’s shoulder and wrists. He’s a total pro, at the height of his profession, and a VERY GOOD GUY. If you can use him, do it! I only wish we didn’t have to switch.

How has this doctor not been reviewed yet? He patiently listened to my spiel, answered all of my questions, gave me what appeared to be a thorough exam (not a dr; wouldn’t know for sure), assuaged my fears, and did not seem surgery-​crazed.
His front office staff (especially Maxine and Maria) is kind and thoughtful, and went above and beyond to help me. For example, Maria called around to schedule my MRI for me – I’ve never seen an office do that.
Neither Dr Rose nor his staff made me feel rushed or like a bother.
These should not be unusual features in medical services but we all know they are.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this office to friends and family.
