I've just had consults with 3 surgeons in KC. I saw Dr. Cusick, Dr. Hall and Dr. Barnthouse. By far, Dr. Barnthouse was my favorite and I will be choosing him for my surgeries. He was also just voted best plastic surgeon in KC by his peers. He has a really great bedside manner and he spent much more time with me than he other 2 surgeons getting to know me, my case and what I wanted. My next choice would be Dr. Hall. He was referred to me by a friend and she really liked him. He was nice but I just liked Barnthouse a lot better. Cusick was never an option after my consult. If you want to know why, contact me privately. I had plans to see Dr. Dan Bennett too but I'm going to cancel ow that I've met with Dr. Barnthouse. Can you tell I liked him? My best advice is to see several and then choose the one you are most comfortable.
