In the years we've been treated by Dr. Monaco, he's always been available beyond office hours to text or call regardless of the time of day or night. He has, in our mind, kept us healthy through his very, very thorough physicals. We have complete confidence in his ability to treat both of us and keep us healthy as we age. He has, on occasion detected symptoms missed by other… See more
Fortunately, neither my wife nor I have had a serious life threatening health issue such as occurred in your example story from a gentleman named Dwight. But, we've had many ups and downs in our health history, instances of influenza, pneumonia, some mood issues due to changing brain chemistry and a plethora of colds and sprains and aches and pains, some of which might have been as much… See more
Dr Monaco has been by my side throughout my Stage Three Rectal Cancer survivorship, helping me live my best life with my new, post-treatment body. He has talked ER doctors through possible blockages to make sure I get the best care even when I am not in the KC Metro. He has a lot to juggle as the quarterback of my care, but he always shows up for me with competent, compassionate care. Thank… See more
I’ve only been a A patient of Dr. Monaco for about 15 months. In this short amount of time he has changed the trajectory of my life, and I feel better than I have in years. My diet has improved, my numbers have all improved, I’ve lost weight, I have an improved attitude, and a general improved since of well being.
Dr. Monaco’s tests are much more in depth and insightful then any I can… See more
My husband and i were patients of Dr. Monaco many years before he went to MDVIP. We couldn't see any other choice rather to stay with him. I have several health issues and he has been proactive and accessible any time night or day. My husband was diagnosed with Diabetes a few years ago and Dr. Monaco took such an interest in getting him back to Diabetes health that he is now… See more
Twenty plus years ago my daughter was in college and working in a clinic and I had complained that my doctor seemed to just come in, go back out, always in a hurry and didn't really take the time to evaluate, etc. Her suggestion was that I make a non-medical appointment with Mike Monaco. She thought that he and I would hit it off. Well, that may have been the best decision I ever made… See more
It makes me comfortable to know that Dr. Monaco is at the end of the text or direct phone call if I have questions or a problem. Having that access is important to me. His annual physical is interesting and complete... and he explains everything in detail. I am very happy with his care.
Dr. Monaco has always made me feel like an individual - not like a number as I have with other doctors. He takes the time to truly talk through my health challenges and to make thoughtful suggestions for ways to improve my issues while also recognizing and appreciating the reality of what is practical. He has a very caring approach and is open to my desire to involve nature/alternative… See more
MIke and my relationship began back in 1995 when we both worked at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas City. Mike has been the trusted physician and friend of my family ever since. He cared for June and Forrest (my parents), continues to care for Pam and myself, my brother Ken (whom would not be with us today if it weren’t for Mike), Kristen (who might just be Mike’s most complex patient), and… See more
Dr Monaco is a very genuine and caring Dr. He always gets back to me if I have a question or a request. Wish more of our medical profession would emulate the type of Doc he is.
