Specialty: Radiation Oncology
Program: Radiation Oncology

Overview

Cancer Focus: Lung Cancer, Mesothelioma, Pancoast Tumor, Thymoma

Dr. Stephen Rosenberg is an Assistant Member in the Section of Thoracic Oncology of the Moffitt Cancer Center Department of Radiation Oncology. He grew up in Medford, New Jersey and graduated from Brown University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. He earned a Master’s of Science in Clinical and Translational Research at Rutgers University in combination with his Medical Degree. During medical school, he was named a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Research Fellow. He went on to complete his medical internship at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, where he was named the Suzanne Munson Intern of the Year. He completed his residency in radiation oncology at the University of Wisconsin where he also served as Chief Resident. Dr. Rosenberg’s clinical focus is the treatment of patients with thoracic malignancies. He is interested in combining radiation with immunomodulatory drugs and targeted therapies to improve outcomes. Dr. Rosenberg also pursues research with a special focus on MRI-guided radiation. He is interested in utilizing radiomics and genomics as part of his research efforts. His work is part of the FORT (Future of Radiation Therapy) Departmental research program aimed at personalizing radiation therapy using novel approaches to improve local control of tumors and decrease side effects for patients.

Patient Comments
Overall Satisfaction
0

0 patients rated this provider

The Provider Rating is an average of all responses to specific care provider-related questions from our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score.

Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question.

Comments ()

Comments are gathered from specific care provider-related questions from our Patient Satisfaction Survey . The comments are submitted by patients and reflect their views and opinions. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.

We post both positive and negative comments from the surveys. We do not post comments that are libelous, slanderous, profane, irrelevant or otherwise inappropriate or may risk the privacy of our patients. A “[…]” in the comments below indicates de-identified patient information or comments that are unrelated to the patient’s experience with the visit to the provider, such as comments related to another provider, about the survey itself, or otherwise completely off-topic.

Not all providers will have a star rating or comments. In order to ensure accuracy of our ratings, we only display ratings for providers who have a minimum of 30 completed from the previous 12 months.

Learn more about our patient comments

Provider Ratings and comments are gathered from our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. If a provider does not have ratings or comments listed it can be for several reasons, including:

  • The provider has not yet received the minimum number of patient satisfaction surveys to be eligible for display. We require a minimum of 30 surveys before we post results to ensure that the rating is statistically reliable and a true reflection of patient satisfaction.
  • He or she may be a researcher or other type of provider that does not see patients.
  • The provider practices in a specialty or office that does not use the specified surveys currently used for these ratings.
