Kansas Orthopaedic Center Reviews ( 234 )

  1. Been sitting here for over a hour and half!!!! If your doctor is behind say something to his patients!!! It’s called customer service and it let’s patient know in case they have other things to do.

  2. The staff here is very rude. The receptionist didn’t make eye contact and acted annoyed that I walked through her door. I left before I ever got to see the doctor. I will never go back to this office or refer anyone to go here. Please save yourself the terrible experience and go somewhere else.

  3. staff was rude and extremely unprofessional had a 2:30pm appointment didnt get seen till 4:45pm brought ct scan and was referred for broken disk in back was not helped or offered any pain medication from dr erickson even though i was in …

  4. Should never have to wait this long at a damn doctors office very rude staff and doctors don’t care about their patients they are too worried about how many they see a day over the quality of care they actually provide I hate I was referred to this place checking into other drs while I still sit waiting for a nurse to come in

  5. Rude front desk staff. Older receptionist bragging about how she doesn’t give the patients the chance to even address their concerns. Waited over an hour and was never told they were running behind.

  6. Dr. Chan Pretty much tells it like it is. Gives you a full picture of the can and cannot be done.And let’s you choose what you think is the best method to cure what ails you.

  7. Thorough, knowledgeable, and client oriented! It was a visit that gave me hope and I feel like we are going to be in the best hands as we move forward with several different issues.

  10. Dr morrow and his whole staff always does a AWESOME JOB and would use him and refer him to all my friends Thank you Dr Morrow and his ASSISTANT SHAWN for taking good care of me.

  12. This was my first meeting with Dr. Howell and I was so impressed with his knowledge, personality and professionalism that I will tell everyone with a foot issue that he is the ONLY doctor to go to.

  13. Dr. Messamore was fantastic! I completely tore my ACL and had a meniscus repair at the same time and he did an amazing job fixing them.

  14. Dr. Chan is a very knowledgeable and caring doctor; I truly appreciate his expertise and the excellent care he has given me since 2012. I highly recommend him for any shoulder injury.

  15. It is a fast paced office. The check in process was fast and effecent. They seem to be taking all the Covid precautions. The doctor was on time and very through. We had no issue with any part of the visit.

  16. Have had 3 surgeries from the very kind and straight forward Dr. Miller.
    He inherited a a very jacked up knee that at his time of seeing it, it had already been through 7 surgeries since2002. …

  17. Dr Hollenbeck always listens attentively and answers questions fully. He never acts like he doesn’t have the time to listen. He is thorough and has great bedside manner.

  18. Love, love this place. Have had 5 ankle surgeries from Dr Howell. He fixed it after another one screwed it up. Dr Gluck is great too. Dr Howell you are awesome from your favorite patient and friend.

  19. Staff was very friendly, BUT… they did not take my temperature, they had a policy posted that no more than one person could accompany a patient, but they were suppose to wait in the car, yet the lobby had at least two parties of three people waiting together. I also waited a half hour in the exam room before I was seen.

  20. The place is nice. The staff in the back are nice. Seem invested. Their upfront staff are all rude. An appointment got changed they said they called and left a message but couldn’t tell me with who and acted like it was my fault I didn’t …

  21. If I could give zero stars I would. I took my daughter here. She has CP and needed help with her walking. After the first appointment I received a bill saying I owed over 100$ before they would see her again. I called and let them know she …

  22. I am in worse shape now because of the surgeries I had here. My legs did not get better after having two surgeries with Dr. Howell. It has been over a year and I am only able to walk a short distance with a walking cane. Before the …

  23. ‘All employees were very nice and professional, it was a great experience, Dr. Chan took plenty of time with me and made sure he had answered all my questions, will recommend to anyone that needs this type of service.

  24. He Seems to know his stuff and is working with our situation that is not common for him to go through. The surgery has healed and the sore on bottom. the top of the foot abscessed and he is still trying to work through this with us. Thank you Doctor Morrow.

  25. I felt like he was in a rush. Seemed like he wanted me gone. Talked really fast. It was like he had way to many patients scheduled.
    I felt like in a round about way he was calling me lazy.. Because I couldnt put my arms up all the way. .

  26. Have had issues with my ankle. Dislocated it 5 times now. Recently switched to Dr. Morrow and my ankle feels stronger than it has in 10 years! Hopefully I have turned the page on my ankle injury thanks to Dr. Morrow!

  27. I’ve had two knee surgeries performed by Dr. Miller and a surgery to mend a broken fibula performed by Dr. Heady. I found both doctors to be both professional and knowledgeable surgeons. Pre and post op nurses were nice and friendly, and …

  28. I felt like they were rushing me through but did tell me see you later in the hall as I left. I did not appreciate Tony taking my hand to force it into a fist. I still can’t figure out how to “let pain be my guide” and “no pain, no gain”.

  29. Dr Enns is a excellent physician… Very professional as well as direct… I would recommend. Any and everyone to this office… I’m receiving a hip replacement very soon and Dr Enns is doing the procedure and I have total confidence in his God given skills and ability…

  33. Excellent, I HAD A MRI, X-RAY, Saw the doctor, steroid injection, and scheduled my surgery for next month. Amazing staff, highly recommend. Dr. Miller is the bomb!

  34. The service is great but the wait times are terrible. Appt was at 9:45 a.m. so we where there a little early and left the facility 11:22 a.m. just for a routine check up.

  35. Dr. Gluck was amazing. He takes the time to explain everything to you and does not seem to rush you out of the office. He is very knowledgeable and experienced. Very professional

  36. I would most definitely recommend this orthopedic center to anyone needing this type of surgery. Everyone is always nice and always on time. I’ve never had to wait on an appointment. The surgery went well and my physical therapy is going fantastic!!

  37. From the front desk which helped me fill out paperwork to the nurse in the room both very friendly to talk with. Dr came in examined the hand and told me I needed to get it fixed before it becomes a real problem. He was very friendly as well. Answered questions we had.

  38. Doctor Miller was great took the time to listen to my concerns. Mapped out a plan of care and told me to come back in a month and if not any better I would be looking at surgery.Great doctor and Great staff

  39. While we never got to see the actual Dr we were referred to (we saw the p.a) they were professional and sweet to our kid. Kinda a waste to pay a copay for the follow up to be told a mri was clear as that could have been done over the phone but I’m sure they have to for insurance reasons.

  40. My 2 year old has had a few appointments with this office and each time has been a disappointment. They rush and don’t listen very well to your concerns. He has had two doctors here and both was a disappointment. I will not be returning …

  41. I have been a patient of Dr. Erikson’s since 2017 . He has done done 3 surgeries on my lower back and trusted his diagnosis and agreed with his treatment recommendations 100%. He has done an excellent job and I would recommend him and this facility thank you so very much Dr. Erikson and the staff you have been wonderful!!

  42. Got right in for my appointment. Didn’t see the physician but only a minute. He aide gave the steroid shot.. Cost fair but high for what was done. I don’t have a lot experience with this type of doctor. I do like that he didn’t just want to cut and see if that fixed the problem.

  43. Dr. Chan and his staff are kind, communicative and efficient. He listened to all my concerns, provided the best diagnostics, and then discussed my options with me in detail. A very good experience.

  44. I went to dr Erickson 5 yes ago with back pain and leg problems(drop foot). He completely dismissed me, finally found a doc 5 yrs later had to have a spinal fusion but ended up with worsening nerve problems. He quit and I was sent back to …

  45. The staff was always nice and respectful but the therapist gave up early on me as not the correct course for healing – I agreed and we stopped appointments (paid by the VA – I am a disabled vet on outpatient community care to help with back …

  46. I was referred to this clinic to see Dr. Erikson for a herniated disc. The clinic is very clean and well staffed. All of my interactions were very pleasant. It is a very busy place though, so it’s a bit noisy. And there might be a waiting …

  47. I wish I had asked my doctor for a referral earlier this year instead of living with needless knee pain. The Orthopaedic Center has friendly receptionists and it is easy to schedule an appointment within a short amount of time. Dr. Miller …

  48. We’ve been at this office for several years now, and Dr. Hollenbeck is incredible! He takes his time with his patients, and their parents. He speaks to the children (not at them) and includes them in everything. He’s thorough and …

  49. Had to wait too long to see Dr. Scheduled at 0900 and saw MD at 10:30. X-rays we’re done before seeing Dr so this did delay visit about 30 minutes but…

  50. I’m active duty military, have been for 20 years. My 5 year old son broke his arm over the weekend. Due to the complexity of the break, the ER doctors were not comfortable performing the surgery; however they explained that it was …

  51. I was so impressed and grateful for Dr. Gluck’s professionalism and expertise that I recommended him for my mother when she broke her wrist. He was caring, compassionate, and had a good sense of humor.

  54. I absolutely love this place ive had two surgies here over the years and theyve always had excellant bedside manners . They make sure your well informed about how the surgeical procedures will go and always calm your fears if you panic. Dr.messamore is just one of the best surgeons you can have.

  55. I was 15 minutes early and waited in the waiting room for over 2 hours. I asked the receptionist if they took my insurance and she said yes and that I wouldn’t owe anything. I go back and wait in the patient room for another 30 minutes and …

  56. My little guy saw Dr Gluck for an open fracture. My husband and I were impressed with his bedside manner. He drew a picture of what happened and what to expect for recovery. He got on my four year olds level to talk to him and joke with him. Would definitely go back to him!

  57. I believe the Dr’s skill and ability are great. However the front desk lacks mental capacity… we had an event happen that was covered my out PIP car insurance coverage. I’m an insurance agent and gave them the claim information and all …

  58. I haven’t had such a caring and helpful experience as I have with Dr Messamore. He was comforting, careful, explanatory and courteous. I couldn’t have asked for a better Doctor, or a better Man! Thank You !

  59. So far I’m very happy with the experience here. I was referred to Dr. Heady by the trauma surgeon for additional work after a wreck. Seem to be improving steadily and the experience so far with staff has been good. They do crank folks right …

  60. I went to see a doctor here for an injury to my wrist. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Dr. Chan diagnosed that my injury was tendonitis. After a treatment with a steroid, I didn’t get relief for very long, so a surgery was …

  61. Dr Enns took the time to really explain what I needed to know and answer all of my questions. He gave me all of my options and what I should take into consideration when making each decision and when to make it for my options. He didn’t just say you need a knee replacement and you have to do it now.

  62. I always feel very comfortable at Kansas Orthopaedic Center in Wichita, KS. Dr. Chan has been seeing me for arthritis in my hands. He is gentle and kind. Both Dr. Chan and his PA, Tony are the best at giving the painful hand injections.

  67. Always a step above in this office. They were able to squeeze me before Dr. Miller taking some time off, so I could get some pain relief. They gave me a cortisone shot (Nick nice job, expected the worse, it was nothing). This will help …

  68. Dr. Howell has been great!! I have had a total of 6 Surgeries on my right ankle have been in constant pain since 2013. Dr. Howell has done the last two Surgeries . Has fixed my ankle to the point I have little to no pain. The PT (Christy) …

  79. Dr. Chan was able to get me in quickly and evaluated my injury with care and was very thoughtful in my interaction. I hope I don’t need his services again, but if i do I wouldn’t hesitate to go back.

  80. Great group of people all around, from the front office staff, to billing & obviously the doctors! I was pleasantly surprised when my doctor recommended against surgery, since he was afraid it wouldn’t provide noticeable relief & he came up with several other things we can try instead. Very impressed!

  81. Everyone was polite, courteous and friendly. Dr. Morrow was friendly, professional and not averse to my questions, nor did I feel rushed or as if I was somehow taking too much of his time. Wasn’t super speedy getting in to see him but I was out the door a little more than an hour after my appointment time. Worth the wait.

  82. My rating is for Dr Chan and the doctor assisting him (unfortunately I don’t remember his name). Both doctors were very thorough, listened to me and took the time to clearly explain what the problem was. They explained the recommended …

  89. The check in as a new patient process was super smooth. Very little waiting. I was moved around from the nurse to the doctor to x-ray and back to the doc quickly. All my concerns were addressed and I never felt like my time was being wasted. One of the best first visits I’ve had at a doctor’s office.

  90. Could not be happier with Dr Hollenbeck and the KS Orthopedic Center. His bedside manner and kind personality is of no match to any other doctor we have experienced. It’s a nice change to have complete confidence in a care provider. My daughter had spinal surgery and is doing phenomenal. Excellent surgeon.

  91. From the time I walked in the door and went to the reception desk, I was treated with a very pleasant and welcoming demeanor. Every, and I mean every touch point along the process the people we wonderful. So much so, I asked the doctors …

    making suggestions about other solutions, rehab, etc.

  96. Friendly staff. Dr. took time to provide a detailed explanation regarding my hip problems and a follow-up injections. Did not seem rushed as sometimes happens with other providers. Have used this facility with two other doctors and never an issue.

  97. Office was super busy, but everyone was extremely friendly and wait times were not horrible! Dr. Jex was extremely caring, explained things well and went the extra mile to make sure he got the X-Rays he needed in regards to our daughter! Would highly recommend!

  98. Dr Howell and his team have provided exceptional care. Before, during and after the procedures I have had. I would and have recommended them their team to others.

  99. Thanks to this place, my son was able to walk on his leg with a cast at the zoo. So thank you. Braxtyn walked on his leg prior to you putting a cast on, but thankfully no permanent damage was done thanks to his mom, AKA me, who had no clue…

  100. Staff are always, pleasant, and very helpful. MA knowledgeable, and caring. Dr Enns, always congenial, and caring. Had my 2 week post op appt. Went great, and was told I’m doing well. Will be back for my 6 week PO appt. So glad I …

  101. I saw Dr. Morris today for a follow-up on a cervical MRI and what my next step should be. He explained to me what would be the best for now and to follow up after an injection. I appreciate him going over my MRI results and questions I had about the results. Kudos to Dr. Morris and his assistant.

  102. They threw away my cast without asking, and made us wait 1-2 hours just to touch around it and say it’s good which we could’ve done at house house in 2 minutes.

  103. The building is beautiful and the people from the receptionist to the nurse, to the Doctor were very friendly and helpful. Dr. Messamore told me everything I need to know and answered every question I had. Then, he left it up to me as to …

  104. I really like the Dr but today was not good, as we waited over an hour in the room for him. I loved the x-ray tech. Usually I get right in for everything but it wasn’t good today, my appt was 3 and we walked out at 5:05

  105. Great appointment. It was my 1st time meeting Dr. Enns. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and spent a good amount of time in discussion with me. I’m very glad he’s going to be doing my surgery.

  106. The place is awesome! Everyone from the receptionist to the nurses to the doctor were great. Very kind, courteous and professional. Would recommend this place and Dr. Howell for all of your foot, ankle, heel, etc… needs!!

  108. Dr. Enns has been patient and understanding about my reluctance to have a knee replacement surgery. He has explained everything and has my complete trust. Thanks. Martha Worlein

  109. I went there for an evaluation from my doctor. The receptionist was great. However, the person that was to taking me to the room where I would see the doctor was absolutely rude. So I left without seeing the doctor. I will be going somewhere else for my treatment.

  110. I waited for over an hour and then was taken back for x-ray and waited another 15 minutes. Maybe time scheduled for appointments needs to be re-evaluated.
    Dr. Howell was very efficient with the time and thorough in information.

  111. Dr. Schippers is amazing. She listens very well and you can tell she really cares about her patients! Her assistant and both receptionists I dealt with were very nice and helpful! Loved the whole experience even though I was in pain!

  112. I was here 15 minutes before my appointment at their request. I sat in the waiting room for my 8:30 appointment until 9. A woman then took me to another waiting room for an X-ray. I had never been to this office before and was not examined. …

  113. This was my first time at Kansas Orthopaedic Center. Everyone was very helpful and responsive. I was pleased with the amount of time Dr, Schippers spent with me today. She explained my condition and gave me some options to try before having surgery. I am more hopeful of recovery after my visit today.

  114. They’re constantly dropping the ball for patient care here. Sure the staff is nice, but they are forgetful and don’t care. Never see the doctor only his P.A. They’re the ones that place the orders for imaging but push the blame for ‘not …
