Steven Ericksen, M.D.

Dr. Ericksen is an amazing surgeon. He has done both of my fusions and is going to be doing my third one in about a month and a half and I wouldn’t choose anyone else to do my surgery.

I haven’t seen dr erricson in person for six months (last three appointments). His NP saw me. Ryan is nice guy but felt like I should see Dr

Dr Ericksen was great I received a discectomy in-between l4/l5. He really helped my pain and he was a very to the point no BS guy

Very informative. Didn’t beat around the bush. Took the time to explain what my options are.

Was pleased with my visit but disappointed that my issue couldn’t be resolved.

I rated him for office consultation only

This time around seeing him and his staff I felt like they cared more about what insurance I carried. And what they were going to do for me if I had other insurance.... Both doctors that I talked to today asked me what insurance do you have. Because it's Medicare and that's not all I have I had my insurance for my work too. I paid taxes I pay for insurance just like anybody else and I just felt that that's all they wanted to know what kind of insurance I had to see where they would go from there.. one doctor asked me what do you want me to do for you what do you want us to do well you're the doctor that's why I'm here to see a specialist not for me to tell you what I want you to do for me I want you to tell me what I need to do or what I should do to get better.. I was just not happy this time around.,.

The hour and 15 minute wait was not so great once I got in to see the doctor. It was just fine.

Took the time to explain and answer my questions.

The longest wait til I have ever had allow an appointment. Bed side manner was not the best. I understand they are busy but he didn’t spend too much time with me. I’m not sure he heard anything I said. Wait forever and a rushed exam.

Doctor Ericksen continues as my favorite of my many orthopedic surgeons ever. He continues to answer all my questions, whatever they are, and I am continually amazed at his 4:00 am post op visits!!

Did not feel welcomed as a patient. Felt as if he was mocking me For not being knowledgeable in the medical field. There was hardly any eye contact whatsoever, As he looked at the computer the entire visit and answer questions with his back turned to me. And any time a question was asked, His answer was vague short and not able to explain Anything to me.. Also needs to work on bedside manners as he had none.

Very nice. He was able to answer my questions and explain in a way that I could understand.

I continue to be totally impressed and grateful for Dr. Steven Ericksen. He took the time with me today to explain my x-rays upon my return appointment And answered all of my questions. He is definitely a five star doctor! Thank you!

Dr Erickson and his PA Ryan are great!!

Very nice, explains everything, just like the other Doctors at Kansas Orthopedic, great service. Great staff.

Awesome Staff.

Great listener. Skilled at detailing medical issues.

BEDSIDE MANNER AND PERSONALITY PLUS. THIS GUY IS THE REAL DEAL. HE DID MY SURGERY ON 4-11-24 AND HERE IT IS THREE WEEKS LATER AND I'M UP WALKING WITHOUT ASSISSTANCE, CLIMBING STAIRS, SHOWERING AND SLEEPING IN MY OWN BED. THANK YOU DR. ERICKSEN!!!

Very professional and conservative

I left feeling hopeful that we could find a solution to a problem that's been troubling me for a long time.

Long wait time and not able to see Dr. Ericksen. His associate was well informed and did a good job answering my questions

Poor bedside manner. Never even introduced himself. Shrugged off my pain as “just getting older”. I’m middle age and can’t lift my kids due to the pain/weakness.

High technical skills appreciated. Preop education could be improved if needed, would not hesitate to use his services again. Have recommended him to others

PA was knowledgeable, I was comfortable with the information he provided.

I saw Dr Ericksen assistant. He was very helpful and informative. Thx. Debbie Fuy

I like this Dr. and I feel I can trust his judgment

Very knowledgeable and thorough.

I can walk with no pain and can stand with no pain! YES!

Dr. Erickson explained all my options and showed me where my body was affected on my x-rays and MRI. He explained the dangers and the percentage of how often it could occur.

Thank you for your help

Get rid of Superiority Complex-it is demeaning to patient !

Seemed a bit distracted at times - understandable given the workload I suppose.

Hard to get to see! Always end up with PA.

I'm very pleased to say that it's the TEAM...This is truly a case where there's no 'I' in team. Dr. Erickson has a phenomenal team & kudos to Ryan, the PA, especially!!! He's not only knowledgeable, but caring & compassionate as well! Sick is successful with people who care about your recovery!

We waiting for 1.5 hrs before seeing the doctor..Was not please.....

Personal and attentive. Took time to explain conditions and process of treatment.

He was informative and anwsered all of my questions.

Very good first visit. Answered all of my questions and explained my mri to my wife and I thoroughly. Was a very comfortable conversation.

Been to see him 4 times after my surgery with more pain and he sends his PA in to guess what's going on instead of seeing me himself. Not happy with him.

Very thorough, gets to the point , he looks at the pictures mri, X-rays, and goes off what he sees then looks at what maybe the neurologist, and others opinions, I like that lays out options what ifs and side effects, a lot these days don’t best of all he isn’t afraid to give his opinion. One of the better ones imo

His PA is outstanding

Dr. Ericksen is professional and to the point. I like that.

Very easy to talk to

Dr, Ericksen , is Excellent

Very focused and forthright. Explained my spinal problem and remedial treatment. Answered all questions and communicated well.

Not sure who I met with today, he did not even introduce himself. He seemed very frustrated, and was not friendly at all. Not sure if he was having a bad day or didn't feel well. I just left very unhappy and thought about not even rescheduling.

5 stars to his assistant

He takes his time explaining everything, listens to your concerns, and answers all your questions so you can understand it.

Needs to be more compassionate and take time to answer questions

I seen PA Ryan, he is a great guy straight to the point and down to earth!

He is awesome!

Very thorough, explained issues very well. Like the honesty!!

Dr. Erickson was extremely friendly asking questions & listening to my concerns! He has a great team.

I saw doctors PA ryan, he was very nice!

Dr. Steven Erikson is such a great doctor… I have all the faith in the world in him.

I truly appreciate Dr ericksen’s patience with my questions and his candid responses. Initial appointment was great

Dr Erickson helped me immensely! I was completely satisfied with his diagnosis and how to resolve my issue. Did a great job to fix my back and after surgery almost completely healed. He is the best at fixing back issues period

Very nice and informative

Decisive, knowledgeable and professional.

Did an excellent job on my back surgery. Proficient and efficient. Could be a bit more personable, but if that's the only thing and it's subjective. Overall great job, excellent doctor.

He listens to you, and explains things to you

Saw Ryan

Good visit with Dr. Erickson much too long waiting to see him

I did not feel like he really listened to me or addressed what’s going on. I left feeling very discouraged and frustrated.

DrErickson answered all my questions. He has a wonderful bedside manner and cares about you.!

Saw the PA and his rating is above.

Very knowledgeable and seems genuine.

initial meet visit. Thorough background questioning, quick exam. Will see is he can help after MRI.

Don’t not know your symptoms or what is going on I don’t like the fact that he tries to tell you that it’s all in your head. No that something is wrong with you. and very rude.

Dr. Erickson is great… He took all the Time in the world with us this morning and so did Ryan…

I am extreme pain rate of 7-8 at all times, and have been for 11-12 weeks since my injury. I asked for something to take the edge off, even the bare minimum Tramadol and my request was refused.

His staff and Dr Ericksen are the greatest they are very compassionate to their patients.Staff at desk are very friendly and excellent with check in and out.

was with my wife our first visit with doctor Erickson appeared to be a good doctor to short of a visit with him to really form an opinion

ExplaIned my condition openly and honesty, his concerns over the options he discussed.

First time seeing him. Good experience.

Answered my concerns

Was not able to view mri results. Computer problem.

Very thorough. Great bedside manner

I thought i was seeing doctor for my appt, but the PA visited with me. He's nice, but its not the doctor

Dr Ericksen has changed my life! I’ve had 1 surgery with him. Now dealing with separate back issues. He’s been there every step of the way. He is the ONLY doctor I trust with my back issues!!

I've only had 1 visit with Dr. Erickson, but so far, I'm impressed. He was patient and answered all of my questions, without making me feel rushed. He explained everything in a way that I could understand, therefore, I was able to make a well informed decision about my health.

Explained everything thoroughly.

Not a personable or caring physician.

Honest and straight to the point.

Dr. Erickson and his team did a great job on my back. Virtually pain free after over 2 years of sciatica.

Very knowledgeable and swift to diagnose my problem with a game plan. Staff was very efficient and pleasant.

They put the patient first and listen to their concerns makes all the difference in the world to the patient. I thank GOD that I found Dr Erickson and his staff. I have already referred several people I know to see him.

His work on my back was very good.

Very professional and informative.

So professional. Thank you for your kindness.

He is very professional

I know I’m well today because of his help.

Very nice and

Dr. Ericksen is great! He is very knowledgeable and explains reports and procedures in simplified terms to understand. I highly recommend him and Ks. Orthopaedic Center.

Very nice man with great Manor's. Explained everything so I understood & explained all options. I would recommend him very highly!!!

I diid not see dr Erickson. I saw his nurse practicner

He explains medical matters simply, directly, and clearly. He's appropriately caring. His calm, knowledgeable manner instills confidence.

He was very straightforward and honest. He broke things down for me. The staff was awesome! I was coming in to the office hoping to get my pain corrected and not temporary relief like I’ve been getting from a few other doctors. Dr Ericksen was great but I want the pain gone.

Listens to my concerns and explains options and risks in detail.

Very explanatory. Was happy with him.

Did not seem to explain anything seemed rushed me thru

Great beside manor and he did a fabulous job on my back! His staff is the best I’ve ever had. After a few back surgeries with a different doctor he fixed it! He also explains everything very well

Excellent advise and listen to my concerns came away with more information and a high level of confidence and reassurance this can be fixed thanks ??

Dr Ericksen took time to answer all our questions.

Dr Erickson takes the time to explain in detail the planned procedure which allows the patient to make an informed decision.

Dr Erickson has provided me with information my previous Dr never did and has gave me hope to help reduce the pain. Thank you Dr Erickson

Very p

Dr. Erickson takes the time to help even if he helps with a referral to another Doctor.

He is very knowledgeable and patience with me and my questions.

Excellent surgeon wish I would have went to him from the get go. First time in 6 years I’m pain free

Dr Erickson has provided me with information my previous Dr never did and has gave me hope to help reduce the pain. Most Dr in the past have just tossed me around and around and I highly recommend him. Best Dr I've had since my initial spinal surgery in 97. Thank you Dr Erickson

Was very courteous and gave me my options and listened to my concerns.

Always great service!! Great Doctors and Staff!! They take the time to listen to your Concerns and needs, and find the best Solution to help. I highly recommend Dr Erickson’s office.

Everyone was ver professional and friendly

Dr. Ericksen has always taken the time to explain things to me and answer all my questions. He gave me more options than just surgery and did not rush me to move toward surgery. He laid out my options and let me make the decision.

Knowledgeable Answered all my questions.

He is taking good care of me I trust him very well

I did not see Dr. Erickson

He's willing to listen to you and help you figure out what to do next

Listened, gave great advise!

Excellent care

He listens to patients checks past procedures and determines what needs to be done to take care of the problem. Very good.

Dr. Erickson did a great job explaining my condition and the treatment needed.
