💬 “Dr. Schaefer and all the staff kept me informed every step of the way. I felt like part of the team in my care, not just another patient.”

After months of shoulder pain, no improvement from physical therapy, and a scary MRI, one Platte City patient stumbled across OSMC on social media.

The very next morning, she called. Within days, she met Dr. Chris Schaefer and learned she needed a reverse total shoulder replacement. Just weeks later, surgery was done, and eight weeks post-op, her recovery is going strong.

👏 We are grateful she shared her story and honored to be part of her journey back to living without pain.

Our Story

At the Orthopedic & Sports Medicine Center, we are dedicated to providing you with the compassionate, experienced care you deserve. Our doctors and staff are committed to helping you reach your goals and become a stronger you.

We understand that injuries occur when you least expect them and that finding immediate, expert care is critical. That’s why we are proud to offer our OSMC Today Walk-In Clinic, where we treat the full range of orthopedic and sports medicine injuries Monday through Friday, from 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

At Open MRI of St. Joseph, we pride ourselves on being the region’s only high-field open MRI system with unmatched open architectural design and the widest patient opening in the industry. This design helps with anxiety and claustrophobia, improving patient comfort. We are also dedicated to providing our patients with the highest level of imaging quality and safety possible. That’s why we underwent a thorough review to earn the American College of Radiology (ACR) Gold Standard of Accreditation in MRI.
