Marcia NagelMarcia Nagel, underwent her second total knee replacement surgery in September 2009.  Although she knew the surgery was necessary for her quality of life, the compassionate nurse also realized if she was unable to recover from the surgery, it might prematurely end her career.

Dr. Hummel is not only Nagel’s orthopedic surgeon, but also a familiar figure in the operating room; she has worked with him off and on for more than 25 years.  So when Nagel agreed to the surgery recommended by Dr. Hummel, she had confidence that her fourth recovery would be as smooth as the first three.

Tom LovelessTom Loveless, head injury
A self-professed safety nut, Tom always dons a helmet when skateboarding and insists his children follow suit.  But Tom admits he made a poor decision on Sunday, June 28, 2009.  It was a crystal-clear day and the accomplished skateboarder wanted to take advantage of the beautiful weather with a quick run at Lea McKeighan Park in Lee’s Summit.  “I didn’t wear a helmet,” he says. “I crashed onto the concrete from 10 feet, the park’s highest point.” Read More

Gina WallaceGina Wallace, cardiothoracic surgery
Gina Wallace knows that life can profoundly change in the blink of an eye, in the beat of the heart, in the moments between breaths.

During the final months of 2008, Gina, a Blue Springs resident, experienced hot flashes that she describes as a tsunami of heat.

“Every six weeks I had tremendous bursts,” says Gina.  “I would jump up wherever I was and run outside to get relief.  They lasted for several minutes and then disappeared.” Read More
