"I have been a meticulous caring physician for 40 years and patients have expressed their appreciation for my care and advice.
Now that I am a patient of Dr Rosio’s I can more fully appreciate the good feeling to be under the care of a conscientious, extremely knowledgeable and caring doctor.
Dr Rosio discovered and treated a number of Basal Cell Carcinomas, but also one that appeared more suspicious to him. Neither my own internist nor myself had noticed any suspicious lesions. In fact, biopsy revealed melanoma fortunately quite early and shallow and it’s treatment rapidly, expertly, and definitively followed. No doubt, my successful and uncomplicated outcome was largely due to Dr Rosio’s early recognition and accurate diagnosis.
My experience confirmed two prior beliefs that I had held for forty years. The first, in the words of the "MasterCard" advertisement, is that having a caring, knowledgeable, careful physician is "priceless". The second is that while I was an expert internist, I was not a dermatologist, and I insisted that my patients see a dermatologist for all but the most obvious skin lesions and for their routine cancer screening
I fully intend to see Dr Rosio routinely for my future skin checks."
