At first approach, she came across as cold and very direct and would not let me finish a sentence. I felt that she was hurrying me without hearing me out. Once I told myself that she is the professional and perhaps has heard the same story more than a million times, I felt at ease and the rest of the appt went very well. Would I recommend Dr. Anthony to others? Indeed I would. She is very knowledgeable.

05/21/2025

Dr. Anthony was easy to talk to, explained everything I needed to know about my situation. She was kind, made me feel comfortable and even made me laugh which helped me tremendously.

05/20/2025

Dr. Anthony is Outstanding in every way. She has saved my life several times. She is caring, her expertise and knowledge is stellar, and she is the finest doctor I have ever had and known.

05/16/2025

Very informative to my questions.

04/30/2025

I absolutely love my pulmonary Dr, Dr Andrea Anthony! She actually listens and quickly responds to all my questions and concerns. Dr Anthony has a very caring attitude and gives me compassionate support and care. I cannot praise this wonderful human being enough! 20 out of 10!

04/11/2025

She is very precise on giving you information and the time she spends with you. She is straightforward and to the point. And I loved it if you want an honest straightforward doctor she's the one

04/04/2025

Gets right to the point.

03/28/2025

She is pleasant and very down-to-earth. Highly knowledgeable in her field! Compassionate and easy to discuss my health plan. I highly recommend her for her expertise!

02/27/2025

I did not have a great experience at this doctor. I did not feel like she listened to my problem. She gave me a lecture on flu vaccination even though I can't take them.

02/26/2025

Dr. Anthony is very attentive, and although she only sees me once a year, she knows me. She is straight forward.

02/26/2025

Dr Anthony was very nice and very informative about what was happening with me ! I would very much recommend her to others .

02/20/2025

The listen, and treat you like a human , not just a patient number.

02/09/2025

Dr. Anthony is awesome. Her staff is professional and caring.

01/07/2025

good experience

12/04/2024

Dr Anthony takes the time to listen to my concerns and to explain, in language i can understand, what my issues are and what she will do.

11/30/2024

I first met Dr Anthony when I had a COPD incident. She has been my pulmonologist since I admire her and her staff and feel lucky to be her patient.

11/28/2024

Not a long wait time either in waiting area or to see doctor- an improvement over previous visits

11/28/2024

Dr. Anthony is always easy to talk to and takes time to listen. She answered all my questions. She's the best.

11/20/2024

Very informative and personable. 11/20/24. Also upbeat and tells you what to watch out for. She’s great!

11/19/2024

Dr. Anthony has saved my life on two occasions. She is an incredible doctor who cares deeply for her patients, can figure difficult diagnosis, comes up with great care plans, and follows through with patients to make sure they are doing well. I have utmost respect for Dr. Anthony, and feel most blessed to be one of her patients. I truly love her dearly, and most thankful for her, her expertise, and her caring.

11/18/2024

Say treated this very good and very knowledgeable appreciate it

10/16/2024

Andrea was very pleasant today and answered all my questions. This was my second visit -- the first one being many months ago. The first visit was quite rushed. I'm guessing now she was just really swamped at that time because I was very happy with today's visit.

10/16/2024

Always a good and caring experience.

09/19/2024

Very nice and fast on treatment! Really like her interaction.

09/12/2024

Staff and Dr Anthony are always friendly, helpful, and willing to help in anyway. All is well with my lungs and sleeping issues.

09/04/2024

Love Dr. Anthony. Had the privilege to work with her as a nurse and now for the past several years as my doctor. She is no nonsense and will always tell you like it is. In my opinion one of the best.

08/19/2024

My dad was fighting for his life and my niece was in there with him. She hadn't been there in days and told my dad without him asking you're not gonna make it bud in those exact words. My niece ran out of the room crying to her parents and when they questioned her she was so argent and totally disrespectful to my family. She has no bed side manners and is absolutely the most disrespectful heartless doctor my dad ever had. We have filed more with the medical board and North Kansas City Hospital. I truly hope that no family ever has to deal with the disrespect and lack of compassion for her patients and the families. We aren't the first family and I'm sure not the last. Please do NOT go to her!!!!

08/17/2024

great as always

08/07/2024

Understanding, knowledgeable and caring.

08/02/2024

Always on time.

07/11/2024

Very professional and we loved her performance and she has a wonderful personality I told my husband I want to transfer over to her too

06/26/2024

She is excellent and knows how to get things done to meet my needs

06/26/2024

Dr.Anthony and staff are amazing here! Thank you for being kind and caring about your patients.

06/07/2024

Have short wait times after checking in. Dr Anthony is very personable and listens to what you have say

05/30/2024

Dr. Anthony is a great doctor. She knows her stuff and is prompt and attentive.

05/07/2024

Dr. Anthony said she had no idea what we could or could not afford. She said our insurance sucks, it doesn't pay for hardly anything. She told me in a very strong deminer that I have COPD your lung test we did the second to last visit was only showing that i had less than 60% lung function, she said do the math that's COPD. Just hearing that for the first time kinda hits you in the face. Is there anything I can do to repair the damage she says no you already messed that up by smoking all those years.I know she is a good Dr. but here patient to Dr. relationship needs a lot of help. Of course this is just my opinion.

04/30/2024

Dr. Anthony is the best! She’s very knowledgeable, patient and totally relatable. If seeing her more than once a year didn’t mean something was wrong, I’d love to see her more often ☺️

04/30/2024

It was a pleasant visit and Dr. Anthony was great.

03/28/2024

Great experience took her time to listen and evaluate the diagnosis even went above and beyond to help with certain medicine I’m on now to help treat my symptoms a bit better

03/21/2024

Dr. Anthony was very disappointed that a scan she had her office contact exray and imaging to schedule prior to my scheduled appointment for her review and ability to share the results with me. She absolutely took control and withing 10 minutes I was sitting in the radiology department waiting for my CT scan. I didn't wait but perhaps 15 minutes. She will get things done immediately and gas shown her interest and involvement in my care. She also was able to have me enrolled in a drug study for my condition. I could not be happier with my treatment.

03/09/2024

I like Dr Anthony she is o the point and direct and I like that.

03/07/2024

Excellent at listening to patient concerns and explaining possible solutions to medical issues.

03/06/2024

Dr Anthony is very knowledgeable and gets right to the point of things highly recommend

02/02/2024

She is mine and my mother's doctor. She is awesome!

01/26/2024

Dr Anthony seemed to very thorough in her review of my medical files and in her conversation with me. This was our first meeting but, so far so good. She seems genuinely interested in finding the cause of my issue and in creating a reasonable path to wellness.

12/15/2023

Very personable.

12/15/2023

I absolutely adore Dr. Anthony. She is personable. She knows the medical care that she is going to suggest and answers questions throughly. She speaks in a .anger that her patients understand the diagnosis and the plan of care!!!!!!

11/22/2023

Had a very nice appointment. Was not a long wait. Dr. Anthony was concise but patient with me because I'm older with sumwhat complicated history. I feel glad to have new look at my sleeping disorder.

11/03/2023

Extremely caring doctor who knows her stuff.

11/01/2023

I absolutely love Dr. Anthony! She is so dedicated to her patients, always listens and is encouraging. I would highly recommend Dr. Anthony to anyone!

11/01/2023

Dr. Anthony is a great doctor who cares about her patients and their wellness.

10/31/2023

Knowledgeable,friendly, positive

10/17/2023

I have never had such a self-involved doctor. I am looking to change. (HAH! Somone at the office left a message for me to call them, so I did. The person answering the phone had no idea who left the message. Corrupt responses!!!)

10/04/2023

Dr. Anthony has been my pulmonologist for 7 years. She is kind, thorough and unfailingly competent. My family and I are glad we found her

09/20/2023

From 11 years ago with my collapsed lung I have been to Dr Anthony every 6 months. I have been more than satisfied with my results.

Dr Anthony was punctual and friendly. She discussed my health issues with me and offered suggestions.

07/04/2023

In and out in great time. Dr Anthony were personable.

07/04/2023

Dr. Anthony is fantastic! She took extra time with me to listen to my concerns, thoroughly review my record and explain the intended course of action looking forward. Such a relief to find a doctor who is not only at the top of her specialty, but patient and a calming force, and not just in and out the door.

05/19/2023

High praises for Dr Anthony. She is considerate and attentive to needs. She doesn't rush but is direct. She also takes time to listen and is very thorough in explaining situations in a comfortable and understanding way.

01/19/2023

Dr Anthony took the time necessary for my appointment. Was not rushed and did not limit me to 2 questions. Would recommend Dr Anthony.

01/19/2023

She is an amazing physician. You can tell shes probably exhausted and over worked but she cares for her patients and when it’s your turn she gives 100% of her time and resources.

01/19/2023

I was very satisfied

01/05/2023

Very enjoyable talk with my doctor and her nurse they were very nice explain thanks to me and I think a lot of both of them I look forward to my next appointment thank you for your service it was an enjoyable experience

12/19/2022

I have an excellent visit each time I visit with Dr Anthony! She always gives me a great analysis of my health concerns. I feel very fortunate to have her as my Pulmonologist!

12/05/2022

I’ve been to Dr Anthony for years. She is very knowledgeable and very kind! Thank you!

09/15/2022

Dr. Anthony is probably the best doctor I’ve ever dealt with. Kind, informative and really listen to you.

07/12/2022

I have COPD and really have bonded with Dr. Anthony. I have been going to her for several years now and have no desire to change, so please don't leave or retire! I always leave feeling she has taken care of me and my issues. She answers my questions to the best of her ability. Some may say she's abrasive; I say she's thorough and doesn't pull punches.

09/24/2021

Worst Dr EVER!!!! Won't return calls. Took 2 MONTHS to get a prescription called in for Much Needed COPD medicine. As soon as I can get my family member switched to a real doctor and out of NKC hospital system official complaints will be filed!!!

11/06/2020

Great physician and very personable! She takes the time to listen and to get to know you and explains things well.

09/21/2020

We've been seeing Dr. Anthony for several years, great doctor!

10/28/2019

Dr Anthony is fantastic. However, i called to get an appt and no answer so I left a message. I got a return call but I could bot answer the phone where I was when the call came in and so I called back again and again got no answer. I gave up. If you can schedule an appt Dr Anthony is a great doctor to see.

09/20/2019

Outstanding physician that has patient care at the forefront and provides critical, straight forward information. She has exceptional staff that is very supportive in making sure all details are fulfilled.

07/25/2019

We had a wonderful experience with Dr. Anthony. She diagnosed me with cancer and told us to take a few minutes to get ourselves together. She then introduced us to her practice manager, Kellie. She is an ANGEL. They have helped us every step of the way. LOVE these people!!

06/04/2019

Friendly, approachable, compassionate. Easy to speak with.

04/18/2019

Dr. Anthony has a good bedside manner and an extensive knowledge of pulmonary diseases including sleep apnea. My sleep apnea is now better because of a repeat sleep study and the addition of oxygen with my BiPAP. She took the time to listen to me.

03/28/2019

Dr. Anthony has been wonderful! She cares about me as a patient and worked to make sure that I was taken care of and feeling better!!!

03/28/2019

Dr. Anthony and Hannah were amazing. They worked to make sure that I was feeling better and didn't have to suffer through a weekend. I can't say how much I appreciate and admire both of these women!!!

10/15/2018

Dr. Anthony was not only incredibly rude to my father for being late (NKC later admitted they told him the wrong time), she botched the biopsy and EBUS report and didn't get everything needed so now KU is saying we have to go through the whole thing again. It's one thing to have horrendous bedside manner but completely unacceptable that he has to endure the biopsy twice because of her negligence. AVOID NKC LIKE THE PLAGUE.

09/07/2018

its taken me ten years to finally talk my son into doing this. The moment she walked into the room all his fears totally gone. She was amazing very complete and honest and took time.. best doc ever!!!!!

06/22/2018

This was my first visit to Dr. Anthony and I was very impressed. I found her easy to talk to and engaged with interest in finding the best plan of action for my care. She's very straight forward and has a good sense of humor. I highly recommend her to others. Friendly staff too.

11/12/2016

She is a very professional Dr., but also very easy and pleasant to talk to! Feel comfortable with her!!

03/22/2016

Caring and knowledgeable, Dr. Anthony was an advocate for me when others were delaying in making a decision on my treatment. She worked hard to make sure my treatment plan insured success and has continued to provide excellent service to me. I would gladly recommend her to anyone needing a pulmonary doctor.

03/03/2016

Dr Anthony may be good at what she does, however, professionalism and bedside manner are not her forte'. I have seen her several times and each time she has been condescending and quite arrogant. She even took a call while seeing me the last time using profanity language in the process. I don't ask for a lot, however I found my last visit to be less than respectful all the way around.
