My first experience at Bitterroot Health was excellent! From the check in procedure with Kathy, to…read morethe end of the appointment was so well organized and efficient. Dr Anderson was professional, listened well, and was very kind. He organized my concerns, ordered needed tests and explained everything precisely and clearly. I was extremely impressed by Dr Anderson. Nola, a medical assistant, was amazing in how efficient she was and how well she recorded my answers to health questions. Sarah, a phlebotomist did the best blood draw I've ever had - amazing! John did my x-rays and was very friendly and professional. I am just in awe of how well Bitterroot Health is run and the people that are employed there. What a great team! After years of trying to find good healthcare, I finally found it! I am overjoyed with the care I received here. Blessings to all that take care of others! 5 stars B. Dixon

Terrible care, completely dismissed everything I had to say. I cant keep any food down so they just…read moredid scans and finally gave me pain meds so I could uncurl from a ball. But when that wore off and I told them they then told me no. When I told the nurse to not touch my left arm for labs as I had just recently had surgery she went ahead and did anyway. I kept telling her no and she said I was aggressive with her and working against her. So I kicked her out of my room. I cant eat or drink anything right now and instead of doing anything I was told to go home and live off of bread and water. I am not happy. I know something is wrong with me but I was completely dismissed. I am not happy. I will never come here again. I will deal with the pain and go to missoula. O by the way I was discharged nothing was solved and the results of my tests they didn't even fully disclose to me. So now im home puking and having abdominal pain still and cant do anything about it because I genuinely feel like it doesnt matter and ill just get dismissed again anyway.

Three docs: Teresa Borino, Randy Stewart and Brett Heath. My wife and I regularly see Dr. Borino…read moreand have been seen by Dr. Stewart on occasion. We have no experience with Dr. Heath. Dr. Borino is a nice, very smart western woman, reared and educated in Wyoming and Montana. I think she is a super diagnostician. Am always amazed at how "up" she is on medications, trends and treatments. Her knowledge base is huge and I feel that I am getting the very best advise when I meet with her. Dr. Stewart has treated our youngest son, my wife and I. Being part of this practice he fills in for Dr. Borino and diagnosed my knee injury and referred me to the orthopedic surgeon. Their new office suite is larger and better than their former location and is still adjacent to Marcus Daly Hospital. Their billing is good, but their front desk people are pretty confused and not quite on the ball. My opinion. And please don't blow off this fine medical practice based on this. But just about every time I come in for an appointment they ask for my insurance cards, make a copy and treat me like a new patient. Pretty annoying. And when I check in, it takes awhile for them to find me on their computer system. Ugh! Yes, I mention the front office staff and operation each time I see Dr. Borino, but this is Montana and everyone is nice, so I don't hold out much hope in the personnel arena. They are good personable physicians who treat you like a neighbor.

Love the front desk gals & the billing dept. Dr. Stewart's nurse, Dorothy, is WONDERFUL. No…read morecomplaints about how Dr. Stewart handled my kid through almost 18 months of well-baby checks & shots. We then decided to have him become our family GP - HUGE mistake. The short of it - he is brusque, condescending & should not be seen by anyone seeking help with women's or weight issues. The long of it: I called to have a thyroid & hormone panel run (have a fam history of problems with both) due to gaining almost 70 lbs in 6 months after I finally started my period 1 year after having my baby + other symptoms (felt like crap). No insurance, so they recommended cheap thyroid first. I asked SPECIFICALLY for the thyroid anti-body test since it took 3 years for them to find my dad's prob w/ processing T3. It's a good thing Dr. asked that we meet alone or my husband would have slugged him FOR SURE. I explained my diet (weighed my food& got down to 1100 calories/day), my exercise program(3-5 days/week), how I wasn't ovulating (digital tests @ home for 4 months), that I couldn't seem to focus & was tired no matter how much or little I slept. Only the basic T3 test was run & came back normal. He gave my 3 pages of symptoms & several years of med records I brought a cursory glance (no joke, he didn't even look past the first pages) then tells me that I'm depressed because I'm fat & I'm getting fatter because I'm depressed, so to do the Weight Watchers program& lose enough weight to be physically capable of joining a gym. Wait, I say - I'm not SAD. I'm tired & run down & upset because I'm gaining weight while doing everything right! He literally rolled his eyes & said, "I'm not saying this is the case with you, but bigger people LIKE you tend to underestimate their caloric intake & overestimate their physical activity." I tearfully told him I was very careful about what I was eating & begged - PLEASE run a FULL thyroid & hormone panel because I KNOW something isn't right - especially not ovulating. He asked if I was having periods - yes. "Then you ARE ovulating." (Ummmm, NO! Not true!) He said he wouldn't test further because I absolutely DID NOT have any kind of hormone or thyroid problem & I needed to accept that I simply had to eat less, exercise more & develop the will to "actually stick to it." He said he would send me to an endocrinologist if I insisted, but that it would be a waste of his, the other doctor's & my time to do so. I was devastated & walked out of there with no hope feeling helpless. Lucky for me, I have an amazing husband & family. They were all livid & insisted I get a second opinion. I'm SO glad I did. Dr. Stewart did me a disservice - & charged me almost $300 to do it. There's NO WAY around this fact - he was absolutely 100% incorrect. And his course of treatment would actually have been harmful, perhaps deadly. Though it did cost me another $1200 for tests (a FULL thyroid & hormone panel....whodathunk? Oh, right - I DID!), doctor's visits & meds, tests showed I was NOT ovulating, had almost ZERO progesterone, almost no adrenal function, that my thyroid levels WERE messed up (just like Dad - trouble processing T3) & that my digestive system was almost completely stagnant. My new doc says I would have starved myself into the hospital within another 6 months if I had done what Dr. Stewart recommended. She put me on progesterone & vitamin supplements & sent me home TO EAT 2x as much as I was plus protein shakes every day. More tests to come, but over the last 3 months, I've LOST almost 30 lbs. I feel AMAZING! I have energy back! My brain fog is gone! My body feels like my own again! Truth be told, I think I was dying before. And I am just damn lucky I didn't stick with Dr. Stewart. Bottom line - I wouldn't recommend Dr. Stewart. The guy has a problem. He REALLY needs to work on his "bedside" manner & he should seriously consider working on his listening skills & delivery. When you have a person who lived in So Cali for years - land of the 120lb "fatty" - telling you that you need to lay off the focus on weight, it's time to evaluate yourself. I hope he does because I think they have a good thing going at Fam Med otherwise.

Started cutting the skin off my foot while I was screaming for him to stop as his nurse held me back, should have never gone to the appointment. Tried to be all buddy buddy with me after I was screaming in pain for him to stop. I even said stop and just tell me what your doing as I was screaming and trying to pull my foot away, neither did he explain anything nor did he stop. My antibiotics would have been enough from the urgent care doctor, all he did was cause me un-necessary pain and charge me $150, thanks. Waste of my time and caused me more harm then good. I couldn't wait to get out of that place and I wouldn't go back if I was dying. Vanessa Wood

We sought out Dr. Clark after months seeing a general doctor without any progress aside from an undiagnosed problem that was escalating and random prescriptions to treat the symptoms. He immediately identified the source of the problem and took the appropriate next steps. I can't say enough about his professionalism, knowledge, ability to build rapport with his patients, and proactive nature. Ultimately, the issue was more complex than what could be addressed locally but his office has still been there every step of the way going above and beyond to facilitate the transition and coordinate treatment out-of-state. Hailey, his nurse, is a rock-star! The process of initiating treatment at an academic facility was cumbersome. I leaned on her throughout the process when we hit roadblocks. She took on items that outside of her job description to help remove our obstacles and made all the difference. Thank you all for your stellar attitudes, straight forward responses, and genuine care for your patients! You've definitely made a difference for our family. I'm sure there are many others that feel the same way!
