About Clarkson Transport

After spending a year recovering from surgeries at rehabilitation centers throughout the Kansas City area, Don continually noticed the same frustrating situation. Near the entrances of facilities, patients in wheelchairs would often wait long periods of time for transportation to arrive and take them home.

As he attended appointments, he frequently saw the same individuals still waiting hours later. He believed there had to be a better way — one that respected people's time and provided dependable, personalized transportation.

Watching people wait for rides after already spending long days at appointments and rehabilitation centers changed the way he thought about transportation. He saw an opportunity to create a service that stayed with people, reduced stress for families, and treated clients with the same care and attention he would want for his own loved ones.

Those experiences inspired Don to create Clarkson Transport, a company built around a more personal and dependable approach to medical transportation. Today, Clarkson Transport provides private medical transportation throughout Johnson County for patients, seniors, and families needing wheelchair-accessible transportation and personalized non-emergency medical transportation services.

Clarkson was built around a simple belief: people should be treated like loved ones, not cargo. That's why clients are never rushed, never left waiting for transportation after appointments, and are welcome to bring family members or loved ones along for the ride. Our goal is to provide transportation that feels personal, dignified, and reassuring.
