Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Absolutely don't recommend her
Rude, condescending and unprofessional, I could go on and on, but I won't. I absolutely do not recommend this lady doctor AT ALL.

Unacceptable
Ivory drendel: The ruination of a 72-year-old woman. A mother, a sister, a loving partner. The once pillar of strength in our family now bedridden, in constant and excruciating pain, waiting for life to end. Her joy, her laughter is gone. Between her primary caregiver, Ivory Drendel, and Logan Health, there is no longer any quality of life due to the apathy, dishonesty, and inability to take any responsibility or accountability for their own mistakes. When the abhorrenttreatment was called out, revenge in the form of accusations and personal attacks, and eventual abandonment were their answer. I truly hope karma finds the front door for the medical community and staff responsible for the unnecessary suffering we watch our loved one live with daily. Surviving breast cancer twice, a 3-week coma found to be the result of covid, now the excruciating pain that comes with the neuropathy associated with longhaulers and a 35-year history of chronic pain, we watch as her only wish is to give up

Very caring, competent physician
She's a very caring, competent physician. Careful to listen, very intelligent and the best PCP I've been to in my life. I'll be happy to recommend her.

Never would I recommend her
This woman has an attitude problem, and she’s not knowledgeable at all. She misdiagnosed me left and right, and with an attitude problem. I would absolutely not recommend her.

She has been my GP for several years. I like her a lot and she listens. I have a very complicated medical condition that few doctors understand, but she does. I do recommend her to family and friends l.

Dr Drendel was great. I ended up selecting her as my PCP after 3 awesome appointments. Listens, allows me to speak before providing care, and never has an agenda. Always thinks outside the box.

Dr. Drendel has a poor attitude, is condescending, and provided poor medical care after a serious automobile accident. Did not care about my needs, or listen. I ended up filling a complaint at her clinic, who had her follow up with me, and her attitude was worse than ever. Found a competent doctor to replace her.

Dr. Ivory Drendel is amazing! I feel so blessed to be her patient.. She was thorough and kind.. and explained my issues very carefully. She was not in a hurry to finish with me and wanted to be sure I understood what she was explaining . I left the appt feeling that she really cares about ME. I would certainly recommend her.. I found exactly the provider I was looking for!! She is certainly an asset to Kalispell Regional Healthcare!!!

She really wasn't concerned about what was going on with me she just wanted the money she would get for labs(huge profit industry these days)and unneccessary invasive tests that specialists usually perform.Strange entitlement attitude for a small,not so great clinic.
