All institute physicians are providers with the Kansas City Orthopedic Alliance and specialize in musculoskeletal surgery, sports medicine and rehabilitation.
Orthopedic surgeon Charles Rhoades, MD, who saw the need for the institute in 1988, worked to make it a reality.
In 2018, the facility opened a 22,000-square-foot expansion, nearly doubling its original footprint.
Today the institute affiliates with 34 physicians and surgeons, while its facility features 17 in-patient suites and eight operating rooms.
At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
