Hi Ali
I just got back from California and i Have never heard of him. maybe you can look him up and see if there is any blogs or ratings on him. Just because he takes your insurance dose certainly not say he is who you want. Please be careful and Please let me know how you make out ether way you decide to go.

Hugs
Lyndsey

The most helpful way to investigate a doctor is to start at  www.certificationmatters.org.   Doing that, that web site reports that  Dr. Rogers is actually board certified by one of the "real" board certification groups (rather than one of the "vanity" certification groups.   He is a plastic surgeon.  he appears to specialize in breast surgery and related micro-surgery.   He is not trained as a craniofacial surgeon and he is not trained as a jaw (orthognathic) surgeon.
