Hello
I'm an athlete, having played baseball at the NCAA and professional levels. I am an avid runner, hiker, and cyclist as well. These sporting pursuits provided exposure to orthopedic surgery from an early age, and instilled in me a passion for excellence and teamwork. That passion drives me each day to treat every patient's hands as the essential tools they are. Your hands are your way of shaping your world. Let's work together to get them where they need to be.
A bit more about Dr. Rosenbaum
​Raised in Fair Lawn, Dr. Rosenbaum is a Bergen County native. He completed medical school at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in Bronx, NY.
Dr. Rosenbaum is fellowship-trained in all aspects of hand, wrist, forearm, and elbow surgery, and board-certified by the American Board of Orthopedic Surgery in both Orthopedic Surgery and Hand Surgery. He is the Clinical Director of Hand Surgery at Holy Name Medical Center in Teaneck, NJ.
After graduating from medical school at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, he did an internship in Orthopedic Surgery at SUNY Downstate and Kings County Hospitals in Brooklyn. He completed his orthopedic surgery residency at Ohio State University, where his case numbers ranked in the top 1% nationwide in hand, wrist, and forearm procedures.
His fellowship training at the renowned Mary S. Stern fellowship in Cincinnati gave him specialized experience in hand, wrist, and elbow fractures and complex trauma, arthritis, arthroscopy, tendon injuries and tendinitis, and emerging techniques such as "wide-awake surgery," which can be performed comfortably under local anesthesia.
His training also encompasses nerve and microvascular surgery of the upper extremity, as well as the non-surgical management of upper extremity problems. Among other topics, Dr. Rosenbaum's research during training focused on techniques to decrease the pain of injections. He has also received specialized training in performing minimally-painful injections.
A former professional athlete, Dr. Rosenbaum has a special interest in athletic hand and elbow injuries, and has cared for upper extremity problems in athletes of all levels, from recreational "weekend warriors" to those competing in the Olympics, the NCAA, the NFL, and the NHL.
During his training, he published nine textbook chapters and five journal articles, including one on the treatment of hand injuries in athletes. He produced ten surgical technique instructional videos featured at national meetings. He was awarded with the top prize at the 2019 AAOS Orthopedic Video Theater.

Dr. Rosenbaum resides in Bergen County, and when he is not working, enjoys spending time with his wife and three children. He is an avid runner, cyclist, snowboarder, and baseball player. He likes taking trips to the shore and to nearby hiking trails with his family.
