    Even though it was stressful to see my son get hurt, we had a very positive visit with Dr Rothberg, he was calm and reassuring and presented us with the choices we needed to make. Moreover, he was able to schedule my son's surgery for the next day, which was awesome. Now after everything he's been through the healing can start. Thank you Dr Rothberg.
