Please do not go to Dr. Nargi if you are non-binary or looking for a reduction!…read more Below is the formal complaint I made to the Montana Board of Medical Examiners after trying to handle my complaint directly with Dr. Nargi and her clinic coordinator, Tiffany. To whom it may concern, I had a consultation with Dr. Nargi in January of 2020 for a breast reduction to manage my condition of macromastia. My breasts significantly decreasing in my quality of life by; causing tension headaches at a frequency of four to six times a week, jaw and lower back pain, severe body dysmorphia, and anxiety. Although I am unsure of my original cup size (as I couldn't wear bras) I believe I was around an F or G cup (see attached photos). I mentioned to her that I had considered FTM top surgery and am non-binary but I wasn't sure about total loss of sensation. She said that we could do top surgery but also a very large reduction. Dr. Nargi, when asked if she could get me to a B-cup, assured me that my surgery goal was realistic and could be completed. On February 11th, 2020, I had a breast reduction for which I paid $5,733.00 (see included receipt) and with the knowledge that Whitefish Plastic Surgery doesn't do prior authorizations and I would have to request insurance coverage later. I woke up from that surgery as an E (see attached post op photos). I immediately made my dissatisfaction known to the provider, Dr. Nargi assured me that the swelling would take weeks to go down. In my two week and four week the same was repeated. After the four week post op, she scheduled a six month and told me that sometimes it can take that long time for the swelling to go down. At my six month, I was the same size. When I confronted Dr. Nargi about the discrepancy, she admitted that she had told me that I would get to a B and that my goal was surgically feasible. When I asked why it didn't happen, she replied, "I don't know." Dr. Nargi offered another surgery for only the cost of the surgical bra. I clarified with her again that my original goal was realistic, she confirmed. On August 20th, 2020, I had another breast reduction performed by Dr. Nargi (also in her clinic under local anesthesia) and reminded her one last time while she was marking me that I'd like to be so small "a sports bra could make me flat chested". When she walked out, my mother, Pamela Roth, asked if I wanted a mirror to see where she marked and warned me that she did not think it was enough tissue. I declined, believing that there would be no way Dr. Nargi would do it again. And I woke up from that surgery at a DD. I also had a post op infection and had to have the stitches pulled out as they did not dissolve and grew out of my breast tissue for six weeks after the procedure. At this point, I went to my last post op and didn't say anything else as I was not willing to have a third surgery under her. A previous patient of hers that I worked with also confided in me that although her breast appearance was great, she did not reach her reduction goal either with Dr. Nargi- she was looking at going to a different surgeon as well. My insurance also declined to cover the surgery, citing that lack of tissue taken making it a purely cosmetic procedure. In the two years since, I have had to continue to pay for Chiropractic care and massage therapy out of pocket (please see attached documentation). I have had episodes of disordered eating in order to make my breasts smaller as well as over-exercising and starvation. I have also had emergency room visits for migraines and pinched nerves in my neck. The most recent of which resulted in my primary care Doctor, Ivory Drendel, making a physical therapy referral and I have been going two times a week. Recently, with the help of my therapist, I have set another appointment at Lift Plastic Surgery in Missoula. I sent a letter to Dr. Nargi explaining my disappointment and asking for a refund to put towards the cost of my upcoming surgery. Dr. Nargi and her staff maintain that my surgical goal was reached and no wrongdoing was committed. Included in this packet are those emails as well. Dr. Nargi, for some reason, decided that I would look better with larger breasts regardless of my gender identity, diagnoses, pain, and personal request for my surgical goal. No one is immune from bias and my goal is that Dr. Nargi be educated on her own bias and non-binary healthcare to prevent another patient from having to go through what I went through.

I went here to receive treatment for scar tissue and was dismissed within 5 minutes. I spent more time on the phone and online submitting my history and insurance information than the entire exam. Dr. Spring had received all of my information including x-rays and CT scan results and even though she had that information ahead of time and KNEW she could not help me, it was clearly more financially beneficial to her to have me come in with my hopes up for some type of treatment only to be dismissed within 5 minutes and charge me and my insurance company!! This type of unethical behavior/treatment is why insurance rates are so high! Incredibly disappointing! Avoid this facility at all costs! There are better and more understanding providers out there!

I am so self conscious now and never want anyone to see them. I've consulted with many other plastic surgeons for a potential revision and they also agreed. One nipple is significantly smaller and not even cut out correctly, the scar runs through the upper portion of my nipple. It was described to me before surgery that the nipple is essentially cookie cutter cut off your breast and then attached. It 100% looks like she used two different cookie cutter sizes for each. Its horrible. I would NEVER go back to that office. She might be a good surgeon for less esthetically challenging procedures - breast lift would not be one of them. I would have taken my saggy old boobs over this version a thousand fold.

I never feel rushed, and she is expert at digging into all past and current concerns and making connections between symptoms. Knowing that I can get just about any minor health issue taken care, from addressing cold symptoms to needing stitches, is priceless. Annual exams actually feel friendly and thorough, rather than the sprint to take a pap smear, schedule labs elsewhere, and get the exam room ready for the next seven minute appointment that I've always experienced in the past. Also, Dr. Coleman is able to save me a ton on labs and medications that are typically stupid expensive through my insurance. Finally, it is incredibly refreshing to call or text my doctor directly when I just have a quick question, rather than going through office personnel. I have absolutely no qualms referring all my friends and family to her!

I realized I would need some professional help getting it out. A quick survey of urgent care in the valley didn't have a lot of options on a Saturday.

The medical staff got me situated and Dr Maaliki came in with a plan. I ended up fainting during the procedure, but the crew handled it no problem. I ended up walking out with my fly in a jar and not in my hand. I would recommend going to Glacier Medical Associates for your urgent needs.

I was pushed off onto her when my primary care physician became the urgent care doctor and was unable to see me on a regular basis. The other female providers at Glacier Medical aren't seeing new patients and so Tara Smith Garcia was my only option. What a poor option. Not only did she overlook/dismiss a huge part of my diagnosis, she ordered the wrong x-ray and the wrong medication for me. When I had an allergic reaction to the medication she did order and I let her know and instead of communicating with me, she simply put in my chart that I was in eligible for any medication in that class. Zero communication and zero meds! I had to go to urgent care AGAIN to get a medication that would work in that class and there were several dozen. The urgent care doctor shook her head in dismay that Tara Smith Garcia actually wrote in my chart without that I was "ineligible" for all considering other medication's for my condition. WILD! I was prescribed an appropriate medication on the spot By the urgent care Dr. The urgent care doctor was also able to order a x-ray and diagnose a very serious issue for me that Smith Garcia missed completely. If you are recommended to see this doctor, I suggest you decline. Some of the other doctors at Glacier Medical Associates are competent and quite fine but Tara Smith Garcia is not.
