Jeffrey E. Rosen, M.D., began his education in Pennsylvania, went West to Los Angeles for a fellowship at the prestigious Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic, and then headed back East, first to Manhattan and then to Queens, where he now serves as Chairman of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation at New York Hospital Queens.
A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, he earned his M.D. at Columbia and did his residency at NYU Hospital for Joint Diseases, where he later served as director of adolescent sports medicine. He was also an attending physician at Bellevue Hospital Center in the orthopaedic trauma and sports medicine service, and was on the faculty at the NYU School of Medicine.
“I joined the team at New York Hospital Queens because this hospital is committed to building a truly great program in orthopaedic care and rehabilitation. We are creating a comprehensive program that can serve the diverse population of Queens, from children with physical challenges, to the elderly in need of joint replacement.”
“We also have a focus on serving professional and amateur athletes and people with injuries that require rehabilitation. This year we have opened a brand new center for physical medicine and rehabilitation – right in Fresh Meadows. Bringing this higher level of care to our community is an absolute priority.”
Dr. Rosen also notes that New York Hospital Queens has a team of orthopaedic surgeons and physical therapists who serve the community with skill and expertise. “We are building on that foundation, and our program and the physicians we are recruiting will mean that no one in Queens has to leave the borough to get world-class care.”
Dr. Rosen is board-certified in orthopaedic surgery and fellowship trained in sports medicine. Over nearly two decades, Dr. Rosen has developed a special interest in the treatment of disorders of the knee and shoulder, as well as arthroscopic and minimally invasive surgery. His research studies range from non-surgical treatment for arthritis and degenerative joint disease to MRI imaging for the evaluation sports-related injuries.
Dr. Rosen has served as team physician or consultant for professional sports teams and performance groups. These include the Los Angeles Dodgers, Los Angeles Lakers, the Los Angeles Angels, the Anaheim Ducks, the Brooklyn Cyclones, the Alvin Ailey Dance Theater, De La Guarda Dance Company, and Broadway shows “Wicked” and “Fame Becomes Me.”
