As first-time parents to a now 9-month old, my husband and I knew we'd have lots of questions and anxiety about our little one's development and health once he arrived.
While pregnant, we'd had a few introductory conversations with the different pediatricians we'd been considering for our son. Though all seemed good, we just got a special feeling about Dr. Rosenberg. We are so thankful to have found her!
Dr. Rosenberg has that special blend of clinical approach and great bedside manner that I find to be more and more rare these days. She always makes us feel at ease despite her busy schedule, and gives us straighforward and clear answers. She often talks to us about recent medical findings and other developments when we ask about something, and we've never been disappointed or frustrated after asking a question. She seems as concerned with our son's development as she is with his health, so we get a broad picture of his wellness each time we see her. Also, each of the specialists we've seen to-date have been very impressed at the just-right timing of her intervention to escalate our issues appropriately. They always seem to know her name and comment on how good of a doctor they think she is. For me, that kind of reputation speaks volumes.
As new parents, those first few days/weeks were nerve-racking! We had to call the after-hours clinic a **couple** of times (okay, lots), and each time, we'd get a call the next day from Dr. Rosenberg to check on us. She's even called more than once in a day if she missed us. Even calls to the nurse advice line got us follow-ups from Dr. Rosenberg herself. I was so impressed, not to mention relieved to feel that we had someone looking out for us...doing this with us. It made such a big difference to our confidence and stress levels just when we needed it.
Dr. Rosenberg really gets patient care, and that really shines through. We have a tremendous amount of confidence in her medical knowledge, and our check-ins are always a worthwhile experience.
I will say that more recently, I believe she's had to take on a bit more of a load due to some (temporary??) shifts in doctor staffing at her practice. This has resulted in a bit less availability at the Marin office (which is where we mainly see her), and also a little bit of a drop-off in her ability to give us those much-loved follow-up calls. However, she's told us to let her know our feedback, because her aim is to know how her patients are dealing with these changes, and improve wherever possible. I really appreciate that! Feedback: Bring Dr. Rosenberg back to Marin on Fridays!!!
I hesitate to attract more patients to her (we'd love her to ourselves!), but I have to say that any new (or not new) parent to a precious child would be lucky to have her in their corner. read more
