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.

Do your homework!
Dr. Wingerter was my first choice for hip replacement based on experience, method and review results. Being 2 hours away from KCOI was not an issue, he worked with me every step of the way. He provided excellent information, listened to questions carefully and answered clearly. His support team was great. My recovery was excellent, was pain free and dancing before I expected. I did the research and made a good choice.

Full Hip Replacement
My experience at KC Orthopedic Institute, and with my surgeon Dr. Scott Wingerter, were exceptional. My choice to see Dr. Wingerter initially was based upon his educational background training, time in private practice, and association with KCOA.Dr. Wingerter is a skilled and talented surgeon, in addition to be a good communicator, and I recommend him without hesitation. Dr. Wingerter is patient and informative, answering my many questions, but left the ultimate decision for hip replacement surgery to me. The care I got from the nurses and staff at KCOI were the best I could have hoped for. The nurses responded immediately to anything I asked for and were kind and caring. The patient to nurse ratio, low infection rate compared to other area hospitals, and location in Leawood were my main reasons for choosing to have my surgery at KCOI.

Total knees
2019 Right knee, 2024 left knee. I couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon, surgery and recovery. He explains in detail the pre therapy that should be done and my recovery was excellent. The first 4 days were a little (and I stress little) painful but after that my pain level was 1 or 0. I’d recommend Dr. Wingerter for anyone!

Excellent Communicator
I visited with Dr Wingerter to gain more information about total hip replacement before I schedule surgery. Dr Wingerter communicates extremely well and answered all my questions (as well as questions I hadn't even thought of). He listened very well, and I did not feel rushed at all. I am looking forward to scheduling the surgery and have total confidence in Dr Wingerter!

Knee replacement
I am at 8 weeks after Dr Wingerter did a full knee replacement for me, and I could not be happier. I used a walker for only 2 days after the surgery and never needed to use a cane. My pain was very minimal and when I had my 1st physical therapy visit the therapist said it looked like a plastic surgeon did the stitches, and now you can hardly see a scar. If you thinking about using Dr. Wingerter for what ever your needs are, I highly recommend him!
