Jess has such a passion to help her patients that is hard to find in healthcare. I came to the realization today that I had given up. She alone reignited my passion to fight, reiterating what it is we’re fighting for and why. The fight is about me, my health and my quality of life, proving that I’m not alone in this fight. Thank you Jess, for being in this fight with me and for me till the end!
TJ M.
The nurse was superb. He was so happy and so cheerful. He really made my day better. Dr Miller was, as always, wonderful. Thank you all for a great visit.
Diana C.
Dr. Phillips is a wonderful surgeon and an even better Doctor. He truly cares about his patients. He listens to our questions and made sure my wife and I understood everything. His whole surgical staff was wonderful as well. I would highly recommend Dr. Phillips for any medical needs you may have. Thanks Dr. Phillips. Hip Hip Hooray!

The care is great beyond great. Kathy gave me the most thorough evaluation of my condition, the history, and my specific experience with my foot and ankle condition. Megan, was very pleasant and professional with her X-ray photos. Dr McMullen and Kathy were extremely knowledgeable, professional, and listened carefully to my concerns and questions. I’m extremely grateful and thankful that I have care available here and across the entire city. MD West One deserves multiple Michelin Stars. Don’t go anywhere else.

Dr. Doran is an amazing physician, who clearly cares about his patients. His knowledge and experience is reassuring. His terrific bedside manner kept me at ease during a difficult time. His honesty is refreshing. He provided me with valuable information that allowed me to make an educated decision about how to proceed with my healthcare. I would, without hesitation, recommend him. I’m grateful for the care he provided.
Sandra M.
Dr McCarthy is amazing. He did my rotator cuff surgery 9 years ago and my bilateral carpal tunnel surgery before that. He takes his time to explain everything and asks questions about you. I was so happy that he is still practicing when I made my appointment for a ganglion cyst causing pain on my hand today, which he aspirated. Highly recommend!

I loved this experience. Everyone was most professional, polite and friendly.. Dr. Gafney was wonderful. He was very thorough, determined the correct problem, and "fixed" it, much to my joy. Thank you all for a most enjoyable experience.
Connie B.
Those helping me were very professional. Dr O'Malley was great, personable and kind. I trust him and his recommendations. This was my second visit. The first visit was the same except for the receptionist in the second window. I felt ignored while standing waiting for her to acknowledge me. And she was rude when she finally looked at me. So my first impression wasn't good but the rest of the visit went well.
mary j.
I found the staff to be very helpful, nice, and friendly. The Dr. explained everything she felt was going on and included me in the decision of care now and the options I have going forward.

Before and after my surgery everyone at MD WEST ONE took care of me, made sure I was comfortable and after each visit I received a call making sure everything was going good and if I had and concerns. Definitely 5 star's. Dr. O’Malley was great and did great work.

I was 10 minutes late and the Dr still seen me. Very professional. I'm a very busy party of time, especially during lunch. Update. Surgery was a breeze. Drs and nurses are awesome. The nurse who removed my stitches was fast. Glad to know the same service at this location as the one in West Dodge. Thanks everybody!!!

I've had brain surgery with doctor Steven Dorn and his nurse Julie and their assistant Lynn is wonderful. I have been going to them since before 2012 when I had my brightness stimulator implanted. I've had a few surgeries with him since then and this group is wonderful. They are Christian they are sensitive they are just absolutely God send and I thank God for them. I love thank you guys for everything that you have done for me. You guys have saved my life
Robert C.
The only downside was the wait—I waited almost an hour to be seen. The rest of the visit was great. Staff friendly, doctor explained things very well.

Easy fill out forms online. Quick simple check in upon arrival. Assistances along with Dr. Doran were awesome as they were very thorough with my diagnosis and treatment suggestion. They answered all my questions and I left their office in total satisfaction!

I have worked with Doctors Phillips, McMullen, Rosipal and Bowdino at various times for over 30 years. They have all been excellent in treating me with courteous staff, a variety of locations and good accessibility to getting appointments. Also their hospital on Farnam is wonderful.

Super friendly and just a fun atmosphere all around. Dr McCarthy has been one of my favorites for years. Remembered my name and what I do from the last time I saw him 7 years ago. He performed a hand and shoulder surgery on my back in 2011 that I haven't had issues with since. Super staff and awesome Dr.
Todd H.
The Dr's. have always shared my xrays with me and showed me exactly what they are talking about. They always have given me the least invasive option to the to the that may involve surgery. Dr's. run through all pros and cons and make sure I understand this my decision to make. I have recommended the clinic to several others.
Mary N.
From the beginning, the doctor and all the personnel were willing to help. Very professional. I had a neck surgery. From day 1, I feel very well. The recovery was better than I expected. I would highly recommend this team
