Show up on time and you won't have to wait. Dr. Gracheck is a very humorous and social personality. It is nice to have a doctor with a friendly bedside manner instead of a programmed robot.

Family Health Specialist is a clean, very modern office and the staff has been naturally friendly and caring.

I recommend this office and Dr. Bessey highly.

After 25 years of family medical care here we are no longer patients with this office. My primary…read morecare doctor for over 20 years retired so I called and set an appointment to meet a new doctor to have as my primary physician. A few days before my appointment I receive a message on my app that my appointment is cancelled. I call to discover that it was cancelled because whomever set up the appointment did not note that this was to establish care with this provider. With all of that they cant even get me in to "establish care" until sometime next year. Just a bit of advice for anyone wanting to use their services and how they treat a loyal patient that has been seeing them for over 25 years.

The receptionist rudely told me I would not be seen until February as I am a new patient. I explained that I had been seen at 2 other offices, and was told I could go to any of the offices. We have moved closer to the Lee's Summit office, and I wanted to change to that office. She told me that it didn't matter. It's unfortunate that the first person you encounter is rude, and has no intention of assisting you. I spoke with the independence office, and was assured this is not St Luke's policy.

I could not breathe…read moreproperly and coughing to the point of lower bloodOx numbers yet they had me sitting out in the lobby for hours. When I finally did get to the ER portion, after basically forcing it, I was treated rudely and rough by the Nurse. The Dr. did do some tests and such but when my blood Ox obviously went to 80% the wrong assessment was, no worries, you're ok. No I wasn't, my airway was so blocked I could not get a full breath to feel safe. No help. Horrible assessments and horrible nurse. The intake was more concerned with her conversations with co-workers. The triage clearly wanted to get to her clock out time and didn't push me through for help.

I am extremely disappointed with my experiences at this emergency room. People come to the ER…read morebecause they are sick, scared, or in pain and are looking for help. The last thing they need is to be treated without compassion or empathy. The triage nurse I encountered was extremely rude and made an already difficult situation even worse. If you work in healthcare, especially in an emergency room, kindness and compassion should be part of the job. Patients may already be having one of the worst days of their lives. A little patience, understanding, and even a smile can make a huge difference. The wait times are also absolutely insane. Waiting 5-6 hours to be seen is unacceptable, especially for people who are sick and suffering. Every time I come here, the wait seems to be the same. Perhaps the hospital should consider expanding the ER and adding more doctors and nurses to help meet the demand. It may also be worth considering having separate areas for patients with less urgent illnesses and those experiencing true emergencies, so that people can be treated according to the seriousness of their condition. I truly hope the hospital takes these concerns seriously. Patients deserve to feel heard, respected, and cared for when they come to the ER for help. Compassion costs nothing, and it can make all the difference to someone who is already hurting.
