    Been an in-patient here twice and out-patient patient for day procedure 3x. My last experience for…read morea broken hip was very good. Physical Therapy was there was there from day 1 and they were professionals who were both personable and experienced. The food was awesome and the highlight of my day. My requests for pain medicine during both stays were quickly answered. In fact, my call buttons were responded to on a timely basis. My rooms were cleaned on a daily basis. During my second stay I was transferred to a room with a strange bed that was very low on the floor and uncomfortable. The unusual procedure that bothered me was how my catheter was placed. I felt my privacy was invaded and almost sexually abused. 4 staff entered my room with a flashlight, turning out the the room lights on the way in, with the necessary supplies. The R.N. explained they were there to insert my urinary catheter necessary for the surgery required to repair my broken hip. Ok, been there, done that. But 4 people , 1 holding a flashlight, 1 attempting to thread the tubing, and 2 providing verbal guidance. Huh? Then she missed and placed it in the other orifice just below where it belonged!! This eerie procedure just took an even more bizarre turn. I looked at their faces and there were some strange grins. 2nd time was the charm. Never in my 50+ years have I experienced such a strange encounter. When I complained, I never saw any of them again. Bizzaro! Notwithstanding, all the other staff impressed me with their compassion and professionalism. Discharge planning for rehab was handled on a timely basis. To my surprise, the Hospitalists were competent and interested in me and took into account my pre-existing conditions. They billed My quickly and consequently never received a bill. Except for that one eerie incident, which I felt was heard and resolved, I recommend Logan for both day surgery and in-patient care.

    Unfortunately I have had two unfortunate experiences with this hospital since writing my original…read morereview. First off I'm unable to go into it in depth but I lost my adult son here and my husband of 30 years in about a 1 year time period. The care during Covid was terrible as they used protocols for Covid with disastrous results. It was in ICU. Although my experience with my new husband was ok but I stayed with him the entire time.

    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 spent two hours speaking with Dr. Narji about her desires for quality patient care. As a Medical…read moreEvaluator for the state of Montana, I am charged with evaluating and assessing the quality and performance of selected physicians throughout the state. Without hesitation, I feel that Dr Narji is a remarkable surgeon, wonderful doctor, and someone who truly has the patient's interest always with her. She is A+ and a true gift to quality medical care. Dave Edmiston, M.D.

    I had a breast lift with Michelle two years ago. I waited to write a review wondering if time would…read morehelp, it did not. My breasts are a complete hack job. 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 just had a full facelift with Dr Spring and couldn't be happier. Her staff is always kind and…read morecheerful and willing to help with every concern you may have. Her surgery coordinator, Katie Jo, is very sweet and accommodating, and her nurses, Patrice and Tami, are extremely knowledgeable and nice. I don't even remember anything about the surgery but recovery was not painful. I am a working woman and didn't have more than 2 weeks of vacation to devote to recovery. Dr Spring assured me that if I stayed home for 10 days and looked good to her eyes I could go back to work. I covered my marks and went back to work on day 10. Everyone I encountered thought I lost weight or changed my hair. I actually did both, but as Dr Spring's nurse, Patrice, said, they would ask that, not if I did something to my face. That is the hallmark of a great surgeon's work. I look like a younger version of myself. I have only one firm chin, and no lines around my eyes or mouth, and my brow doesn't sag. I used to be cute, now I have been told I'm beautiful. Thank you Dr Spring and staff!
