It was easy to set an appointment with Dr. Rodgers. My colonoscopy in Nov. 2017 was almost painless, even though I chose to stay awake during the procedure. They gave me something for the possible pain and there was essentially no pain. I would recommend him.

Impossible to get an appt. Office staff is rude when making an appt and tells you to go to the ER if it's that important. They will also hang up on you
