I Had a Panniculectony, Breast Reduction, Fleur-de-lis Abdominoplasty & Arm Lift and Dr. Rodgers is a Miracle Worker!

Dr. Rodgers is a miracle worker! I first consulted with Dr. Rodgers in the 4th qtr of 2019. We discussed what I wanted done and my conditions. I'm a type 2 diabetic as well as I have psoriatic arthritis. I needed to have a panniculectomy and a breast reduction. I didn't realize that these procedures might be covered by my insurance due to my weight loss. Dr. Rodgers advised me on the process and his great staff (Christine) contacted my insurance and submitted the needed photos and paperwork and got this covered. I also wanted to have Fleur-de-lis Abdominoplasty and arm lift at the same time to maximize my cost and time down. Dr. Rodgers discussed all my options throughly and helped me understand what a big undertaking this was in one procedure. I decided to proceed and we set the date up in 1st qtr of 2020. He advised me to get a surgery clearance from my endocrinologist as well as my rheumatologist and I was cleared to proceed. Going into surgery my last A1C was 7.8, when surgery was over and I had lab my lads taken my A1C was 5.2. This was an amazing result. I have been able to go off of 3 of my 4 diabetes medicine and I anticipate coming off all this medication. its now been 3 months since my surgery and I'm extremely pleased with my results. I stayed in the hospital after surgery a little bit longer due to my blood sugar level fluctuating and Dr. Rodgers came to see me every day. I have lost over 35 pounds and feel great. I'm extremely pleased with my results and look and feel better than I have since I was in my 20's! I'm currently 48. I can't recommend Dr. Rodgers his staff and The Artisan Center enough!
