Dr. Kumar was rude and would not give me my results from my test, which I had to have redone at another office!! Now 1 1/2 years later he turned me into collection all because the office put my zip code in wrong!!! If they were getting my mail back why would they not verify with my paperwork I had to fill out OR call me to verify my address!!!!!!!!! This office has wasted my time, money, quality of care and now to collection because they made a mistake!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS OFFICE!!

I am shocked by the negative reviews people have made on here. Perspective is everything. I personally found Dr. Kumar to be professional, but personable when needed. He explained all processes, treatment and prognosis. He even made me laugh tears, during painful testing. I hope it does not deter anyone seeking professional and educated knowledge, from this wonderful human who has dedicated his life to Neurology and helping our community. I found his staff to be extremely accommodating and kind.

I was pretty worried about my appointment after seeing some of the reviews but my appointment went very well, the nurse Sydney is incredibly sweet and has taken care of me through each visit, the eeg wasn’t terrible at all she made it quite a bit easier. Dr Kumar was very quick in helping me figure out my seizures and getting me squared away with medication to help. I highly recommend this place, I’ve never had a bad experience here and don’t dread the doctors visits anymore!

Ive been a patient for almost 5 years. I have nothing but great things to say about him and / or the staff.Everyone is always so helpful to me. After reading the reviews I have to take a moment to acknowledge that. He will listen to your concerns, gives you plenty options on medication its ultimately your choice to take it or decline it. Im really disturbed by people trying to give bad reputation saying he pushes you into taking it. Its your choice and right so... ( maybe you need someone to talk to *Psychologist? Not a Neurologist, you are at the wrong place) He is very knowledgeable so expect to hear possible diagnoses before you get your results, which to me is always nice to know what I may be dealing with. Now I only visit once or twice a year since Im on the right medications to prevent migraines.

I have been wanting to write this review for some time. Dr. Kumar is by far the most impatient, unkind, and uncaring doctor I have ever been to. I went to him for severe migraines and he wouldnt even listen to me. He asks you questions while taking notes, but then asks the same questions again because he actually doesnt even pay attention to you. He pays no attention to what you have to say, he talks over you, and completely ignores you. If you ask a question he mutters under his breath how much he cant believe you have a question to ask! Imagine that- going to a doctor with questions! He should not be in a people-person field or work, especially as a doctor. I actually could not even believe my eyes and ears when I was in with him. If I could give him negative stars, I would, and it appears that many others/former one-time patients here would as well. He tried to push Botox on me at least 3 or 4 times in my time with him even after I flat out said I didnt want to because my insurance wouldnt cover it and I simply could not afford it. He mocked me and said that I must surely have gotten the worst insurance I could have possibly selected and laughed like I was a fool. And when I eventually started crying because of the sheer nastiest and rudeness of him, he asked me repeatedly if I was depressed! At another point he asked if I suffered from anxiety. He is condescending, insulting, extremely unhelpful, and certainly doesnt seem very knowledgeable. He tries to push all of these medications and doesnt even listen to what symptoms you are experiencing. He acts as if he cannot bother with you. It was the most astonishing doctors visit I have ever had. His tone of voice really lets you know that he is extremely annoyed with you for asking questions or even asking him to repeat himself. I was crying in my appointment not because I suffer from depression, but simply because I was so taken aback by his unprofessional behavior and the horrible way he treated me. I will never go back and I suggest anyone who is looking for a neurologist- to think twice about this man. I found out later from my mom (who did not know I was going to Dr. Kumar beforehand) that Dr. Kumar was the doctor who misdiagnosed my father with a stroke when he actually had a brain tumor! Appalling and shameful behavior for someone with Dr. before their name.

Dr. Kumar and his staff made not so fun testing very easy. Dr. Kumar is so funny if you get him talking. He seemed aloof at first, but when I said Id kick him if he hurt me, the banter began. Dr. Kumar let me know exactly what he would be doing and that it would be uncomfortable. He reviewed his findings with me immediately and told me what treatments there were available.

Dr Kumar was amazing and listened to all of my concerns about my symptoms. He ultimately was able to diagnosis me appropriately after conducting tests needed to confirm my issue. While on active duty the docs misdiagnosed me several times and prescribed medications that compounded my issue making it worse. I was so happy to have a doc that was thorough, listened and took his time.

Went in for my 6 month follow up and noticed they do have new staff. I see most of these reviews about the staff so wanted to note that. The new staff is great and positive changes have been made. As a patient of Dr Kumar’s for 7 years I have seen a lot of staff. He is a good doctor. Don’t let anything else keep your from seeing him.

Make sure you keep your children within arms reach because this doctor hit my daughter with a door when he opened it, without knocking, while going in to the examination room and never once apologized. Also, my wife saw a massive HIPAA violation and could tell me all about another patients history including social security number and other sorts of info that shouldnt be able to be seen by other patients. Please reply because I would LOVE to talk.

Dr. Kumar and his staff deserve more than 5 stars! While visiting our son stationed at Ft. Riley, an unexpected trip to the ER and subsequently admitted to Geary Community Hospital, Dr. Kumar knew exactly what was wrong before the hospital tests came back! We enjoyed his bedside humor and how thorough he was during our 4 week visit in Kansas. He explained the importance of a Sleep Study which made an impact on my getting it done promptly. After the study, I did not realize my complex apnea could possibly have been what spiked my blood pressure, causing my stroke. Also, every call to his office, the staff always follows up promptly whether its an answer needed from Dr. Kumar or documents need to be sent to our home in Alabama! We highly recommend him!

What an absolutely incredible experience. I did read the reviews prior to taking my son to Dr. Kumars office. What we experienced was nothing short of pure excellence. The office staff was great, even calling when they had a cancellation so we could get in earlier. There were NO issues with understanding how insurance worked, everything was spelled out for us. Dr. Kumar himself has a great bedside manner. He asked a lot of questions and listened carefully to the answers. His exam was very thorough. He ordered some further testing and his office called me right away with the results. Our experience was nothing less than STELLAR. Forget the previous reviews, from the first phone call through our visits thus far, everything has been wonderful.

One star is too many. I went to Dr. Kumar for headaches and he didnt listen to anything I said and ignored the medical tests I brought him. He gave me some migraine pills for my headaches claiming they seemed similar to tension headaches (without explaining how or when to take them) and told me I was depressed. The next week my primary doctor diagnosed me with a brain tumor and was shocked an MRI was not ordered by Dr. Kumar.Apart from being inattentive, he left the doors open during my appointment and my sister, who was in the waiting room, said she heard all of my medical information and could hear everything they were saying to and about me.I left that appointment crying. I was completely disappointed in every aspect of that appointment. Please dont waste your time going here--even if its the only place you can get an appointment. I lost 300 dollars that day but wasting my time and my hope was much worse. ZERO stars from me.

I went to pick up my mother from her appointment there. While I was in the waiting room, I overheard the staff discussing my mother and laughing at her. Then, they started talking about me in very negative terms. I have never met any of these people. I dont know why I am a topic of conversation. Dr Kumar has the staff he deserves. they are a bunch of gossips that talk trash on their patients

I visited only once and wont return. He did not help, which makes it a waste of time. I need a dr that will establish whats wrong and make a plan. Not just give you pills and say youre depressed. Just minutes prior, I had said Ive had seizures and migraines for years and am now dealing with several recent deaths in my immediate family! Didnt check any prior history. :(

Review №15

Dr. Kumars office engages in a policy of requiring a bill not yet due to be paid early, in full before honoring an appointment they previously set with you. You will not know about this until only 24 hours before your appointment when an office assistant calls to remind you of your appointment. Hoping this review provides the public who are reading here with this disclosure of important information that the doctor himself should be disclosing instead when he originally schedules appointments.

Review №16

The office staff is rude and unprofessional. There is only one doctor in the office to treat and see patients, so if Doctor has, let’s say, the flu, expect your appointment (that i had waited a month to even get) for treatment to be canceled and rescheduled (for me, we’re going on 4 weeks now of them canceling and rescheduling). Do not expect to be accommodated to your schedule or around family emergencies. It does not matter how nice or patient you are, Do not expect to speak to anyone personable. And if you express any sort of unpleasant experience to the “manager”, she will cancel your appointment and refuse to reschedule and treat you all together. Dr. Kumar, himself, was quick and knowledgeable. My only concern with him was that he did not look at my medical history or tests before seeing me at my initial visit. It’s too bad his office staff is not of the same caliber as he is. I wish I would have seen these reviews before I put up with 2 months of aggravation and stress from this office.

Dr.Kumar doesnt listen to what you need and tries to get you in and out as soon as possible. I have to go to KU Med because my condition so bad and I need way better help. It doesnt help that his secretary is the rudest person I have ever met. He shouldnt be even able to be rated a one its that bad!! :)

Dr Kumars phone assistant is rude and they lied saying we missed 2 appointments and we only missed one. They refuse to refer us to another Dr and charged us to get our own medical records. HORRIBLE DOCTOR

Horrible customer service, the lady on the phone had no ethics at the time to answer the phone or given answer to questions. They need to work on professionalism.

I wouldn’t suggest going here. Dr kumar will talk over you and not let you speak. He also likes to belittle you because his “medicine” doesn’t work for you. There’s a reason why there is only one doctor at this establishment.

Very rude. Wouldn’t even take me seriously. Didn’t even treat me like a human being. And the staff is almost equivalent.

Was referred to Dr. Kumar because i had lower back pain. Went in, was obviously nervous. Wanted to ask questions about the procedures and tests, he got upset and started yelling at me. Will not go back.
