My golf buddy recommended Dr Shah at Menorah (did similar repair to his knee). Got in to see him 3 weeks later. So impressed with practice - never waited more than ten minutes.

I was disappointed with my experience at Marquette PT in Leawood. My orthopedic surgeon at KCOI…read moregave me specific activity restrictions, but instead of respecting those restrictions or contacting my doctor for clarification, the therapist argued with me about them. As a patient, I don't think I should be put in the middle of a disagreement between my physician and my therapist. Another concern was the lack of consistency in my care. I was treated by different therapists, and each seemed to have different opinions, different treatment plans, and different exercise recommendations. It was confusing and made it difficult to feel confident that everyone was working toward the same goals. I wasn't told when I scheduled I wouldn't just be with one therapist. In my past with different clinics I had always been seen by the same physical therapist throughout. The gold standard of care. I expected better communication, coordination, and respect for my care and physician's instructions. Patients benefit most when their healthcare providers work together rather than giving conflicting advice. I spoke with the owner and it seems they may be short on therapists and overbooked.

I've been seeing Dr. Riekenberg for almost a year and I don't know how to begin to sing her praises. I have chronic back issues and my neck hadn't moved in 70 years! LOL!! She is so patient, thorough, and gentle. She uses a theragun and a few other little gadgets that loosen things up. She also does manipulations on my scalp that feel absolutely wonderful. She keeps such thorough notes and so always remembers what our previous visits entailed. On top of that, I often have to bring my three-year-old granddaughter along and Dr. Riekenberg is just incredible with her! Again, she is so kind, patient and loving. I've been to several other chiropractic offices in the area but they are nothing like First Choice! In addition to everything else, I've never had an issue with insurance (Medicare). The entire process with First Choice is just how medical care should be!

I'll admit I was skeptical but the pain was so strong I figured a chiropractor was better than popping painkillers. After a 30 minute appointment, which included an evaluation and a few taps, (no cracking or popping of bones) I was all better. !! Two weeks later I started feeling the same kind of pain (lower back/hips) so I went back. Prior to this I had never been to a chiropractor but I've been impressed...Not sure what I'll do after the pregnancy but this experience has been eye-opening for me. The office is clean and the administrator (Mackenzie) is nice.

First, they tried to ignore severe pain and muscle spams due to nerve damage in my hip that…read moreoccurred during my knee replacement surgery as "a little soreness after surgery." I had to force the issue of effectively treating the situation and it still took them 10 days before they bothered to do the correct treatment that should have been done on postop day 2. This borders on malpractice. Secondly, when I was asked, I told them that I expected to be walking without a cane after surgery. I had been forced to use a cane for about 5-6 years prior to surgery due to safety concerns and the need to preserve what I could of being able to use the knee. My expectation of being able to walk normally was completely ignored. Instead, when I tried to walk without the cane, I was told to keep using the cane. This continued throughout my entire time in rehab. Somehow they thought that using the cane was going to help me be able to walk without it. Even I don't think that's right!! This means that I couldn't really walk when they decided to dismiss me from their care. They didn't care about getting to the correct place; all they cared about was that I could stand and waddle around a little with the cane. That is not good rehabilitation. It is coming up on a year since my surgery and I still cannot walk normally because they never appropriately addressed the problems in my hips that were caused by the use of the cane. Basically they expected me to figure it out on my own. I am going to have to go to a different doctor (not one who is part owner of this facility) and a different PT place in order to get proper medical care. I find that disgusting. I will never recommend this PT facility to anyone. At this point I am unsure if I will ever be able to return to my sport. They do not care about performance. Do they even know what that word means? They only care about money.

Dr. Roith came across as a very experienced and calm doctor who genuinely cares about all his patients with an great, caring, and a little jovial bedside manner. I went to my appointment with the thought of removing the toenail, as per all the previous doctors I had shown it to - NP, PCP and even Dermatologists and he made me feel at ease and told me not to worry, and that we will work on it with his treatment (so practical and easy to follow) to eradicate the issue. I left the appointment feeling confident and worry free. The staff was very sweet and guided me well. The clinic was clean and organized. Highly recommended!

Dr. Roith is phenomenal.

I went to my primary care physician and another podiatrist and received unsatisfactory recommendations. I was then referred to Dr. Roith and immediately appreciated the way he looked for and addressed the "root cause" of my foot pain and developed a surgical plan accordingly, as a final resort. That foot surgery was nothing short of life-changing. Now in my twenties, I am living a very active, pain-free life, and am able to do all things I missed out on as a teenager due to foot pain. So grateful for Dr. Roith and this practice!
