Very personable and down to earth. Took time to explain what my diagnosis was and the procedure to come. Easy to talk to and made me feel at ease.

Dr. Rager was professional without being stuffy, and was thoughtful in her choices - like using a small port for less external visibility, and making my incision under where my bra strap hides it. She was also patient while answering my questions and those of my family, taking the time to explain why we'll be moving forward with specific treatments and not with others. Thank you, Dr. Rager!

It’s never fun to see a doctor but meeting Dr. Rager put my husband and I at ease taking the time to review my results, answer our questions and offering resources. Besides she wore really fun and cool socks, that obviously matched her awesome personality. She was compassionate, caring and didn’t rush us out. So glad to be connected with her!
