This office consistently overbooks Dr Rowe, so expect a multiple hour wait--undoubtedly that's before you get put in a room. Dr. Rowe brings years of experience in the field to his practice. So he's a good doctor but office practices make it very disappointing overall experience. read more

Was reviewing my Yelps and thought an update might be in order. As per my prior review, my experience here was terrible. But I failed to mention that not only did they the staff and physician treat me really badly, they also misdiagnosed me with a "functional" or psychogenic neurological disorder. Translation: "It's all in your head." Well, yes, it did turn out to be in my head because I was subsequently diagnosed by competent professionals with autoimmune encephalitis (Brain on Fire). Antibodies were attacking my brain. Nice to get blamed for that. read more

Nope. Terrible. Please do not waste your money here. This place is very cookie-cutter and the staff has little to no knowledge about anything medical-related. Recommended the same tests for my friend and I. Let me think I had a brain aneurysm when I didn't. Took 2 weeks to let me know and left my results on a voicemail. Then I just went to send my doctor an email and got a message back that he was no longer with the practice. That's how I found out. One review said they wished they could leave negative stars. I completely agree. We also coughed up a HUGE payment up front which they have not acknowledged and keep trying to bill us for. STAY FAR AWAY. Also, NO expertise in Hypermobility issues!!! read more

I was first diagnosed with MS in 2000. After years of interferon therapy, I was tired of sticking myself and quit all medication. I had no relapses and really felt like I was not sick. I found the RNI and made an appointment with Dr. Rowe. He ordered new MRI's of my spine and brain. All of my inactive and active lesions were gone, there was no sign that I ever had MS. Dr. Rowe suggested a sleep study as sleep apnea can cause symptoms of MS. It is now 5 years later and I had a follow up today with Dr. Rowe as I am in need of a new cpap machine. Still no MS symptoms. Hearing I no longer had MS in 2011, was the best day of my life. I'm so happy that Dr. Rowe pursued my issues and discovered my sleep apnea. I highly recommend them to anyone with neurological issues. read more

I had a sleep study, MRI, MRA, and EEG done here. I was treated well. I had no billing issues. Nurse Practitioner Oshea spent a hour listening to problems I had. She gave me suggestions that worked. This is very uncommon in health care today. I believe Nurse Oshea really cares about her patients. I would definitely recommend Rowe Neurology to anyone. read more

I have been with Rowe Neurology for several year's. Dr.Rowe along with his PA Doug Schnell have turned my Multiple Sclerosis around. Along with the great knowledge about MS. and the tools of the trade(MRI's connection with the drug company's, etc.) RNI also deals with other Neurological diseases including: Alzheimer's, Sleep Apnea, Migraine Head Aches. RNI can deal with anything that comes up or they known who to call to help. read more

Stay away from this nightmare! My husband started the process for sleep apnea in October, 2 sleep studies done didn't get results until February after I called numerous times for results. Finally had results sent to another office since he now works out of town and he has to do an3rd sleep study for other test they did not do which should have. My husband looks like a zombie and they take their sweet time. read more

Don't go here. Go anywhere else in Kansas City if you can. Especially for sleep. I experienced multiple incompetencies from admin. Missed booking, shady and incorrect billing, multiple sleep studies, and only visited the doctor once. Received some bs diagnosis of hypermobility, which only affects 5 percent of the population. I'm of healthy weight, diet, and exercise, and this came out of the blue and he went no further in diagnosis. You are pushed along and only viewed as a dollar sign. Went to am ENT and came to find out my allergies and asthma were the issue. Received no recommendation to see any of these doctors from Rowe. read more

I was so encouraged and full of hope after meeting with Dr. Rowe. I did all the things requested of me, agreed to all of the tests, etc. However, I began having issues with the office staff the minute Dr. Rowe left my room and the girl who was in charge of moving my paperwork to get me out of the office "forgot" about me. Another woman came in and apologized saying that the girl who forgot about me was new. No sweat, I was thrilled that I was finally getting help. Long story short, the office is blaming a technical problem for the reason that they were not receiving my voicemails and were not returning my calls. I was hung up on by one of their staff members, when I complained about this & said that I did not want to do any tests moving forward that RNI did not have a preauth for but that I did want to have my botox (for migraines) done because Amber, (who was consistently a great help) and I had worked very hard to get my preauth moved, Rose told me that I could not do that and was being dismissed from their practice as a patient. Please people, read ALL of the reviews that are out there for this practice before going. I did and went anyways because they came highly recommended to me from one person. Unfortunately, that one person's experience seems to have been the exception where all of the negative reviews seem to give a very accurate portrayal of how RNI handles their business and clients. read more

Drs. Rowe and Winegarner helped me go from having one migraine a week to one or fewer per month. They first performed a battery of tests on me--including an MRI of the brain, nerve conduction, blood work, and sleep study--to rule out possible causes of my migraines. In the end, I was successfully treated with a combination of medications and physical therapy. I've never had a problem with staff or the doctors, although I can see how folks might find a couple of the staff somewhat "abrasive." Nevertheless, I credit these docs. with giving me my life back. Fewer migraines has meant that I can finish grad school and focus on my family and work. read more

Just don't even waste your time or money. They are not even doctors, they are nurse practitioners. I have been seeing them for 5 years and I met with Dr. Rowe one time. read more

I had my initial consultation prior to reading the online reviews and admittedly got a little nervous as a result...there are some snarky folks out there. At the end of the day, it boils down to this: Dr Rowe is a very talented and well-versed doctor and he listened, he gave feedback, he allowed me to be a very active participant in the process and THAT is what matters. I came into my second appointment, received the results of various tests and then WE decided what the next steps would be...I'd definitely recommend him. A doctor who listens and hears? Yes, please! The fifth star? Well, there's no getting around the oddities encountered with some of the staff, but they also seem to be in-tune with it as I receive surveys inquiring as to how I was treated in the different department. Kudos to them for trying to get that insight and I always complete the surveys. read more

I found Dr. Rowe to be very thorough during a recent consultation at his office in Lenexa. He answered all of my questions, was very clear about cause and treatment, and even suggested other reasons I may be feeling pain. I have been to several neurologists over the years, and Dr. Rowe is by far the best. A good portion of my treatments for my neurological issues were overseas in Germany where I found the doctors to be above and beyond any I had seen in the States. Until I was seen by Dr. Rowe. He was just as thorough and precise as the German doctors I had seen overseas. Best of all, he listened to what I was saying and within 10 minutes understood my patient history and could review it clearly with me. This is more than 90% of the neurologists/MD's that I have seen in the past 10 years. He is very professional and knowledgable, and obviously likes his job (which makes for a much more pleasant patient experience). In addition, all the facilities I could need are under one roof there at RNI - convenience! read more

I went to RNI for Neuropathic Pain from burn scars. I was wanting to see a Neurologist Psychologist. They would not even talk with me about my problems. They quickly scheduled me for thousands of dollars of tests for problems I did not have. This was within the week, so I did not realize what was going on until it was too late. Their sleep study was a horrible nightmare. I do not have any sleep problems. And still they tried to sell me one of the sleep apnea devices afterwards based on a very poorly done sleep study. They falsified my initial visit report, and refused to correct it when I emailed them about it twice. This was not an oversight, it was blatant and obvious fraud. They charged all this my Medicare and Medigap insurance. I filed a fraud complaint with Medicare. I never got any help and all with my problem. They just made it worse because now I'm so angry. read more

I have been seeing Doug Schnell at Rowe Neurology Institute for over a year. I am extremely pleased with Doug's attention to my MS and my concerns. He gets right back to me when I have a question or problem...even on weekends! My original neurologists office did not have email and I was pleasantly surprised when I got to the Rowe Institute and was informed that they did. I have never been treated any way but very nice by everyone at Rowe Neurology Institute!!! read more

I suppose Dr Rowe is friendly enough, but that is the only nice thing I can say about this group. I got rather rude treatment, unnecessary tests and an MRI that isn't as clear as it should be because Dr Rowe told me it was important to control the thickness of the slices(per another neurologist who wasn't impressed). I was referred to their physical therapists, who were booking 2 to 3 months out. What a racket! You have to use THEIR physical therapists, and MRI. I cannot recommend strongly enough that you avoid this group!!! read more

This place is great. They let me know ahead of time about how my insurance works. They fixed my sleep and showed me how it could help my headaches. They seem to listen and none of the other doctors I've been to have done that. All the other doctors just want to give me one pill after another. read more

Great doctors. I have been treated for my migraines and sleep apnea. I am so excited to have found them. They have helped me tremendously!!

This place is a joke- I wasted 3 months with them. They are very caring and nice when you first go in, after they run every test possible and exhaust your money they are done. I had zero follow up. My pain is the same as before if not worse. I did not want pain meds if possible, I wanted answers. I didn't get answers - they prescribed pain meds . read more
