Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Fell out of wheelchair onto my right side, the side of my polio. He saw me as a trauma surgeon. I was immediately transferred from Lee’s Summit Hospital to Research Ospital where he was. He is a wonderful doctor and very knowledgeable and nice.

I wouldn't recommend!!! He didn't fit my sister with a broken ankle a with a new boot after surgery. She was wearing one from ER that was too small. He didn't explain specific purpose of boot and importance. How the foot needs to heal, the direction it needs to be placed. The boot wasn't explained fully so she could understand how to function at home. He prescribed wrong pain pills that she had a red band on during her surgery. Caused her to be in more pain and a call to 911

I would absolutely NOT recommend this man as a Doctor. He is rude, distant, gets impatient when asked questions. He wanted to stop my treatment to early, and wanted to stop PT after only three treatments. Stay far away from this doctor.

Most caring doctor I found for my knee injury. Laid out all my options honestly and didn't push me in any one direction. Always very professional and kind.

This is not the Dr. you want to see if you want an expert to guide you to a timely and complete recovery. Every visit I had with Dr. Wise left me feeling like he was completely bored and I was wasting his time and even got a few heavy sighs when I was asking questions. I am still not able to return to a full work schedule but he is no longer approving physical therapy. I tried to explain another issue I was having and he interrupted and told me about other more serious injuries he sees.
