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.

Dr. Nirmal is an asset to the Kansas City community. He is always very responsive and shows true empathy for the well-being of his patients. He referred me to Dr. J. Paul Schroeppel at the KU Med Sports Medicine & Performance Center at Arrowhead. I was nearly unable to walk a city block without serious pain and discomfort due to osteoarthritis. As a result, I had a full knee replacement and after 7 weeks can walk 3 miles without any problems! Thanks to the caring staff and Drs. at KU Med!

Dr V is not only a wonderful doctor, but a wonderful person as well. This man saved my life and showed nothing but kindness through the whole ordeal. I would not be here today if he hadn't stepped in. Every person that needs this kind of doctor couldn't make a better choice. Nancy Robinson
