Dr. Hulse was a wonderful physician in 1986, when he was instrumental in saving my daughter's life after a TBI. He is compassionate and very kind. I can't say enough wonderful things about him. Dr. Hulse, if you see this I'd love to hear from you so you can see how my miracle girl is doing now.

We have had the worst time since he left the practice at CMH. We have had a horrible experience with another doctor and would love to know where he is practicing now. Have not seen him listed as working around here. Does anyone know where he is now? Checked the KU web site and did not see him listed. Thanks

Thanks for letting us know where he is now practicing. CMH wouldn't give any information and the PA we chose to replace him is already leaving. Ugh!

He is now employed at KU med and my daughter and I are absolutely following him there. So attentive and passionate. Can't find anyone better.

I love Dr Hulse. My son has been seeing him since he was born. My son is now seven years old. We have had a great experience with this wonderful doctor and would like to know where he went? He is gone from Children's Mercy. Does anyone know where he is? Please contact your former patients so we can find you.

Great sense of humor, shows caring for patients as well as making their day better. Always looks on the bright side instead of the dark.

Dr. Hulse recently treated me for an abnormal heart rythym, at the age of 17 I was a little nervous to undergo a surgery such as this. Dr. Hulse and the rest of the staff at Children's Mercy Hospital did a wonderful job comforting me. The genuine caring that comes from this place is unbelievable. Very easy to get the impression that THIS MAN KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING. I have nothing but the highest regards for him, as well as the rest of the staff at this incredible hospital.

Dr. Hulse is amazing. He has treated my son and our family with such compassion. He is highly knowledgeable and he always takes the time to answer our questions. We know that our son is receiving the best care. He also has a wonderful staff.
