This was my first visit with Dr. Rodner and I found him very personable. He listened to me and explained things in detail. The only complaint I would have is the long wait before seeing him. My appt was at 3pm and he came into the room at about 3:45p. This is good and bad. It means he spends time with patients and thus the appts fall behind.

Dr Rodner has the most kind demeanor with an authentic concern conveyed in a professional manner. His unique approach starts with a genuinely warm greeting each time.
