With profound sadness, we share the news of the passing of Robert Rosenberg, OD. He was a father figure to many of us, a great friend to all and a wonderful person to know. Bob loved his profession and his patients. His sense of humor was memorable and his memory was unmatched. He was my friend and my mentor. We all will miss him dearly. Rest in peace Bobby.
