Rogers, a Democrat, ran for US Congress in California’s 25th district. He lost after giving incumbent Congressman Buck McKeon a strong challenge. After speculation that Congressman Buck McKeon will retire in 2014, Rogers announced his candidacy for the seat again and was endorsed by the Los Angeles Times. Two Republicans edged out Rogers in California's new top two primary for the run off in the June 2014 election. Rogers endorsed Republican Steve Knight over Republican Tony Strickland which drew criticism from the Democratic Party, but Rogers stated, "I didn’t create the rules and I care too much about our district to let it fall to a dishonest carpetbagger who is interested only in himself, like Tony Strickland." He later withdrew his endorsement of Knight over his refusal to ban the sale of the Confederate Flag in the California Capital.

After serving several years on the exam committee,[3] Rogers was elected as a board member of the American Board of Podiatric Medicine, where he founded the Certificate of Added Qualification in Amputation Prevention and Wound Care.

In 2014, a medical director of Valley Presbyterian Hospital claimed that Rogers was fired as medical director, which Rogers disputed and he later sued the hospital for breach of contract which led to an undisclosed monetary settlement to Rogers. He founded the Amputation Prevention Centers of America, while medical director of Paradigm Medical Management, a trademark now owned by RestorixHealth, Inc, where he currently serves as medical director.
