Kansas City Orthopaedic Institute is a hospital in Leawood, KS. It is the area's only hospital dedicated exclusively to orthopedics, serving patients with sports-related injuries, arthritis, worker's compensation cases, and other musculoskeletal conditions. The facility offers a comprehensive range of services including diagnostic imaging for MRIs and X-rays, an interventional spine and pain management suite, and a rehabilitation department for inpatient and outpatient physical and occupational therapy. The care team includes more than 35 board-certified, fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeons and interventional physiatrists who work alongside skilled therapists, nurses, and technologists.
The hospital was established in 1998 by several of Kansas City's leading orthopedic surgeons in partnership with Saint Luke's Health System, officially opening its doors in January 2000. It remains a physician-owned acute care hospital licensed in the state of Kansas, a model that allows staff physicians to have greater control over the aspects of orthopedic care they provide. The facility is accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Health Care and is a member of Physician Hospitals of America and Physician Hospitals of Kansas. To support recovery, the hospital staffs one registered nurse for every two inpatients and conducts all inpatient physical and occupational therapy sessions one-on-one between the patient and the therapist.
Located at 3651 College Blvd, the hospital sits on College Boulevard, just off I-435 and State Line Road. It is positioned about half a mile from Foxhill South Park and the Leawood Aquatic Center, making it accessible for patients in Leawood, Overland Park, Lenexa, Lee's Summit, and surrounding areas.
As the region's sole dedicated orthopedic hospital, Kansas City Orthopaedic Institute provides specialized surgical and rehabilitation care in Leawood, focusing exclusively on musculoskeletal health and patient outcomes.
