In patients' words
"Dr. Berntsen listened intently to me, and addressed my comments and concerns in a clear, concise and seemingly unhurried manner. I couldn't ask for a better doctor and so appreciate that we have this caliber of surgeon locally."
— Patient Review, University of Kansas Health System (Jan 2026)"I do think most of my interactions with her felt very rushed but that is probably because she is at the only Bariatric Surgery center in town... Do not expect her to sit with you and hold your hand post surgery."
— Patient Review, ObesityHelp"Dr. Dunshee is a very good surgeon. He is like most surgeons he does great in the operating room, but not so good afterward. The obesity center in Topeka is really lacking in aftercare programs."
