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.

I have been Dr Montana’s patient for many years. The girls in the office are always polite and are very professional. During my visits Dr. Montana is very through. She always takes the time to answer all of my questions and explains everything to my understanding. I will continue to recommend others to her.

Dr. Montana is everything you would want and need from a doctor, and an all around wonderful person. She takes the time to listen, answer questions and to help you in every way possible. She goes above and beyond to make sure that her patients are living the best and healthiest life. Her office staff is very caring and helpful with all her patients needs. They make you feel comfortable the minute you walk in. I have been a patient of Dr Montana for several years and so have my children and grandmother. She has helped me through a lot of health issues and she is always there for me. There is no other doctor or staff that I would trust me or my family’s health with. We love Dr Montana.

No other doctor could figure out what was wrong with me until I went to doctor Montana. She took the time to make sure the correct tests were conducted. She also sent me to the specialist to check for things that no other doctor would do. After all my tests were conducted and I saw the specialist I had multiple issues and needed stable medication. Doctor Montana made sure and continues to make sure that I am stable and able to function. Before this, I could barely function at work and half the time could not attend. Doctor Montana saved my life.

5 year old needed physical before surgery. Waited for 1.5 hours in room before Dr finally came in. First visit, clerical staff was nice. Second visit when we had to get bloodwork results, staff was extremely rude, not helpful and kept saying they didn’t have the paperwork even though I called the lab while I was there and they said they had faxed them twice! Long story short, never going there again and definitely DO NOT recommend! Thank goodness we have Kaiser again!!

NO Stars if that was possible. This Doctor and her staff has to be the worst in the High Desert. Very incompetent and irresponsible. Where do I start? First Nobody ever answers the phone. I believe they are always at lunch or busier then they think they are to answer the phone at all time during business hours. Leave a message and don't expect a phone call back in the near future. If you are lucky to get through good luck with the office staff. The staff redefines the term …..unprofessionalism. The receptionists either are not paying attention to what you are saying to them , or really don't care because you are bothering them when you call. If they cant answer your questions they transfer you to Dr. Montana's nurse (Yassee) who has no busy being a nurse . She is extremely rude on the phone and to your face and makes a effort to be difficult and uncooperative . This miserable human being must hate her job, because she sure acts like it. The Doctor herself is ag

I love Dr. Montana. She is very thorough and takes her time with her patients. There is a wait to see her but totally worth it. She listens to you and never hurries.

Dr Montana has been a great doctor and has gotten me through the toughest time of my life. I was diagnosed with breast cancer and with her help and support (plus the specialist she referred me to) I was able to get through treatment and can now say I am cancer free. I highly recommend! Office staff is extremely courteous, friendly, and helpful.

Literally awful! If you like waiting 2 hours plus after your appointment time GO for it! I had to tell the Dr even who the patient was and her name when it's sitting right in front of her! The front of office is just as awful and unorganized and says different then the Dr. Shows a sign if your 15 mins late you won't be seen, this office should own up to their own rules and see their patients on time! She even thought my daughter which was dressed in pink was a boy and kept calling her him! AWFUL

She cut off my high blood pressure meds because I would not see her every two months. She sent me to a cardiologist when I needed a hematologist. She's awful in search of over billing.
