Dr rose fixed a nerve in my elbow that was making my hand weak, it has been a couple years since I could grip a golf club or ride my bike without my little finger going numb and my elbow hurting, he definitely knows what he is doing, first visit a little awkward but he warms up to you as you go through process with him very detailed orientated and listens to his patients

This doctor is fabulous! Super talented, easy to talk too and gets the job done! My insurance is lame and didn’t cover his visit but they gave me a fixed cash price for ultrasound and injection-​very fair and reasonable! I’ve been to him before and he reattached my husbands detached biceps-​excellent results!
Great hand and upper extremity orthopedic!

Dr Rose removed a Intramuscular lipoma on my arm and did a fantastic job! Very professional I would not go anywhere else for hand arm issues.

Dr. Rose is the best !! I have an is issue with both shoulder and hands. I had a nerve test done right there in his office by a technician. He also sent me for an MRI for the shoulder. His diagnosis was spot on, and after surgery on my hand I can not believe the difference. Limited scaring and time off work. The shoulder is another issue and I am going for therapy. Both he and the second opinion Dr. feel we can not operate. I appreciate his honestly and not jumping into surgery for something that would not sustain that amount of recovery. Looking for a great hand/​shoulder doctor — her is your guy.

Dr. Rose is the best! He took the time to get to know me and did a very good job determining what my issue was. Once he did, he explained what my options were and what the results would likely be. He performed surgery on my wrist for carpel tunnel and I am happy to say the issue is now resolved, I went into the surgery confident that Dr. Rose would go a great job and he did! He is a very patient and knowledgeable Dr. who I highly recommend!

Great doctor if you like being over charged.
I saw Dr. Rose for a shoulder issue. He sent me for an MRI. Read the pathologist report and sent me to another Dr. for a second option. He charged me $ 1200 to read what the pathologist said. Umm, I could do that. The other physician choose to read my MRI then consult the pathologist report. He charged me $ 270. Plus told me I didn’t need surgery which Dr. Rose said I needed and PT would help which it did. Thanks for the price gouging Dr. Rose. Oh and if you’re 30 days late they will send collections after you and report it to your credit score.
I strongly suggest asking what the fee’s will be prior to having any procedure done.

A big 5 stars to Dr. Rose and his staff (both at his office and Orthopedic Surgery Center of Orange County) where I had two separate surgeries for Carpal Tunnel Release surgery. I had the right done in April 2014 and the left done in Sept 2014. Both surgeries fixed my pain, numbness and tingling in my hands and arms. I could not be happier with the level of professionalism, personal service, kindness and competency. I would highly recommend Dr. Rose for Carpal Tunnel Release surgery. Please feel free to contact me if you have a concerns about the process.

Front office staff is rude and unhelpful. There was a small $ 30. discrepancy that my insurance didn’t cover. They sent the bill to our old address and it didn’t get handled appropriately. Should have been an easy fix, but they refused to handle it they way a quality doctor’s office would. Check their policies before you get serviced. They run on a business model that puts $$$ way ahead of service to those with health needs.

Dr. Rose is my hero! My back doctor referred me to him when I shattered my wrist. He told me Dr. Rose was the very best and the only one to see. He was right! I had shattered my right wrist in three fractures and it required surgery. Dr. Rose put in a plate and 6 screws. This was on April 26, 2014 and by June my wrist was 75% and by the middle of July I had regained 99% of range of motion, flexibility and strength and no pain! Today, the middle of August I am 100% can do everything, even lifting 10 pound weights! My incision is barely visible, no pain and my wrist looks normal and I can do everything I could do before my injury! I am even starting golf lessons this month! Dr. Rose is a miracle worker. He is the most caring who is an expert in his field. His staff is amazing. From the girls at the front desk, the X-​ray tech, back office and his wonderful assistant… top notch doctor and staff. Everything was perfect from beginning to end!

I knew the practice from one of the other dr’s. When I researched where to do carpal tunnel surgery, I found Dr Rose was top notch. We did both my wrists, separately, and my recovery was awesome. I have absolutely minimal scars and full use of my arms and hands with no more numbness or pain.

What a change! The entire front office staff was changed and they are so friendly and nice. Dr. Rose is so nice and thorough. He has already done one joint replacement on me because of rheumatoid arthritis and I am due for another. He is just the best there is. He is compassionate and thorough. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Rose is the best! He was my second opinion after fracturing my pinkie finger. I went to another doctor who told me my option was surgery or put my finger in a ghetto wrapped splint for two weeks and see how it goes. I was horrified!
So I called my husband’s knee doctor, Dr. Kramer, who referred me to Dr. Rose. Dr. Rose saw the x-​ray and immediately said he would not have opted for surgery on my finger. He gave me a much better splint for 4 weeks and off I went.
I had hardy any wait at all. Can’t wait to go to my follow-​up appointment to see how I’m healing. If you have done something to your hand, Dr. Rose should be the FIRST guy you see… don’t waste your time on someone else.

My fiancé ripped the bicep in his left arm. He had Kaiser insurance at the time and they told him several times nothing was wrong with his arm. Five years later when I met him he had maybe 50% strength in his arm and I told him to get it looked at with someone else under his new PPO insurance. A friend referred us to Dr. Rose. He told us he could repair it but he wasn’t sure how much strength of his arm he would get back because it had been so long since he tore it. The surgery went amazing and he gained almost all the strength back in his arm. That was 7 years ago. Now he is having tingling in his hands and upper neck/​back pain and we’re going back to Dr. Rose.

Dr. Rose is amazing! I went to another hand specialist and he was in & out of the room in less than 3 minutes. Dr. Rose explained all my choices to me. He recommended a very conservative approach. Thank you so much for a making this a positive experience.

The other morning my daughter slammed her hand in the car door. Instead of going to the hospital emergency room, we went to Dr. Rose’s office. Even though he had multiple patients already booked for that morning and a planned surgery, he was able to fit us in and preform emergency care on my daughter’s hand.
She is recovering wonderfully thanks to Dr. Rose. He provides the best care and even though he’s busy, he gives you the feeling that you are his only priority. We couldn’t be more pleased with his service.

Dr. Rose did carpel tunnel surgery on both of my hands. The recovery was so easy; I was typing when I came home! I have absolutely NO SCARS. It’s as if I never had carpel tunnel at all. I’d read and heard so many horror stories about this surgery, but it all boils down to your surgeon, and Dr. Rose is the best. Period.

3÷21÷2011−8÷15÷2011
So my first visit was on 3÷21÷2011 due to some work related issues I was approved to see a specialist! My 1st visit here I waited over 2 hours to see the Dr for 7 minutes! I was upset, confused, hurried and harried…
Our further monthly visits were still just as short… but I have to say… Dr. Rose fixed up my carpal tunnel real good! I was very skeptical at first… never having had surgery before and i was not impressed initially… and 6+months later… i am sooo much better and glad that I had Dr. Rose as my surgeon! He was always sooo nice and kind… the few minutes I saw him but still great nonetheless…

THE BEST Hand & Upper extremity orthopedic surgeon in OC! Dr. Rose has treated my mother (surgical), my father in law (surgical), my husband (non-​surgical) & my mother in law (non surgical). We were referred to him bc of his reputation as a s stellar physician & surgeon, but our family continues to seek his treatment when needed, bc of his professional demeanor, warm bedside manner & the personal interest & investment he takes in his patient’s cases.
Yes this office is busy, reason being is that all the physicians are highly skilled and regarded. In the event that I, myself, would need to seek treatment, I wouldn’t think twice about seeing Dr. Rose! (knock on wood). I highly recommend him for any hand or upper extremity concerns!

The wait was very long, the office staff were unfriendly. The whole system was harried, and beware, they don’t help you figure out your insurance beforehand, and you will be slapped with a hefty bill in the mail. Good if you like the surprise factor.
The doctor was not unfriendly, just pretty nonchalant and not very helpful. The whole 5 minutes he was with us, he just looked disengaged and rather uninterested. Ok to be fair, we were pretty uninteresting specimens, nothing we had on us screamed for an expensive surgery.
Oh and when I called a few weeks later at 1130am, I was told it was lunch hour by a lady from some department, and to call back at 130pm. When I called back at 145pm, she said they were still at lunch and to call back at 2 pm. Now, their official lunch hours on their answering machine says 12 to 130pm. They really should change it to ‘Suggested lunch hours’.
No wonder they couldn’t help with insurance queries, no wonder they look so harried and rushed! They spend more time out of the office than in! No ‘bleep’ ‘bleep’ wonder!
There’s a collection of orthopedists in this location, probably served by the same staff, so… be warned.
