Before coming to Emory in 2004, Dr. Roser was the director of graduate medical education at New York-Presbyterian Hospital as well as director of the division of oral and maxillofacial surgery and associate dean for hospital affairs at the School of Dental and Oral Surgery of Columbia University.
Dr. Roser specializes in palate and maxillofacial surgery. In 2009, he was the first oral surgeon in Atlanta to use virtual surgery planning for free flap reconstruction following ablative surgery for oral cavity cancer.
Dr. Roser has an extensive history of international service that includes being a team leader for the Missions Abroad Program of Healing the Children-Northeast every year since 1992. In this role, he takes surgical teams to countries in Central and South America to provide such services as cleft lip and cleft palate repair. In 2017, he began participating in the Emory Haiti Alliance's summer surgical trips to Haiti's central plateau, the poorest and most medically underserved region in the country — Dr. Roser's first trip to Haiti was in 2010 in the first wave of medical responders following that year's devastating earthquake.
He has received numerous awards recognizing his efforts as an international surgeon, including the Distinguished Service Award of the International Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons in 2019, the Humanitarian Award of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons in 2011, a Presidential Citation for Humanitarian Efforts in Ecuador in 2005, and the American Dental Association's Oversees Volunteer Award in 2003.

|
05/02/2025 |
I'm comfortable with this doctor and clinic. But I wouldn't recommend this provider tp others if they have to wait 6-12 months just to get seen! |
|
04/15/2025 |
Dr. Rosner bedside manner are great . And his team have been exceptional. Now that I've had some time to reflect on the procedure, I do have my fears and a few questions. Given the complexity of the process, I trust them to continue their excellent work. |
|
04/08/2025 |
Dr Roser is truly a top notch doctor. Through the years I've come to the clinic I never doubted I was receiving the best care possible. He is kind and compassionate and truly has his patients best interests at heart. The treatment plan for the next step in the process was explained in detail and has prepared me for what to expect, which eased my fears a great deal. |

I had many care providers. They were really all just great. They listened, answered my questions, and discussed my plans to the degree which I had asked. They may have volunteered less if I had not asked more questions, but when I d did ask, they told me everything I needed to know to feel confident about my care. |

Dr. Roser was very approachable and I'm so grateful to have his expertise. |
|
10/16/2024 |
I'd recommend Dr Roser with the hesitations being the phone calls, scheduling visits and scheduling the surgery the wait time. These things are always bad. Terrible. And I've worked in healthcare for 25 years. My son's surgery date had been moved and nobody called me. Just stuff like that. But your clinic staff is great. |

|
07/10/2024 |
Dr Roser is very clear and thorough |
|
07/09/2024 |
Dr. Roser is the very best doctor we have ever met. He is highly knowledgeable, very caring, and respectful of his patients. He is a blessing to Emory University and all the doctors who he is training. He takes his time to answer any questions we have after a very thorough examination. Because he is the best, we don't mind waiting longer in the waiting room for his expertise and amazing patient care. Dr. Ray did an excellent job for a resident, too. |
|
07/05/2024 |
Post surgical questions should be standardized. |
|
07/04/2024 |
I left the appointment feeling hopeful and confident that my long term issue could finally be resolved after a few next steps. This was due to the care and explanations of the staff and doctor. |

Completely disappointed!! |
|
06/06/2024 |
DrRosen and his assistant were amazing. They listened, were knowledgeable and gave me accurate information. I hadcseen 3 dentists prior at my own dentist who were the opposite |
|
06/05/2024 |
Was disappointed that neither the resident or attending that discussed the procedure for the consult were present for my procedure. A new resident was there but I had not met this one and was not expecting a different provider. |
|
06/02/2024 |
The resident who performed the surgery was fantastic. I have serious dental anxiety, and she went out of her way to reassure me and explain what she was doing throughout the process. If I had to have oral surgery, I couldn't have asked for a better experience! |
|
05/25/2024 |
Bothe Dr Sanders and Dr Rosen were great, I felt like they listened carefully. The exam was very thorough |
|

|
05/08/2024 |
I felt very comfortable and confident in my care team. |
|
05/08/2024 |
I had a bit of a panic attack while I was getting all the details by who ever was going over what all entailed in my procedure. I mentioned I was squeamish and my blood pressure went up and the nurse gave me something to calm me down. She was very kind. |
|
05/07/2024 |
Ver please with Dr Roser and his team. |
|
05/02/2024 |
Rey good |
|
05/01/2024 |
Dr. Roser (and the other doctor that came in before him...a resident or intern?) were both great to work with. |
|
04/19/2024 |
I've had better experiences with Dr. Roser in the past. He only popped in during the mold taking process when I was unable to talk or ask questions. He left to look at surgery scheduling options and never returned. I guess he assumed the resident would finish the conversation. The resident told me there were no sooner surgery dates and showed no sympathy for the months I'm waiting or the pain I'm in. The office visit notes stated that he discussed the surgery, care afterwards, and such, but this is simply wrong. Nothing else besides the date was discussed and that was a very terse conversation. |
|
04/18/2024 |
Both nurse practitioner and doctor were excellent. |
|
04/16/2024 |
The explanation was clear and precise of how my mother's dental process is going to take place. |
|
04/15/2024 |
Dr. Roser, the resident, and the nurse were all fabulous. |
|
03/28/2024 |

I will never forget the excellent care. Keep up the great customer service EMORY HOSPITAL. |
|
02/27/2024 |

|
10/03/2023 |
Always great experience with staff and doctors |
|
09/27/2023 |
This was an annual follow-up visit to see if my original condition was still present. Some of the questions above seem to apply to a new visit where there might be a concern. Mine was the opposite. I was aware that my condition was no longer present, and this visit was a confirmation of that. |
|
09/14/2023 |
Very satisfying experience |
|
09/13/2023 |
I really like my doctor team but I feel like the team is overworked beyond their control. |

My first experience with him was very thorough in January. The visit in July seemed more rushed. He did ask if I had any questions but I was a little overwhelmed since he had students with him. |
