Sarah H. Fenton's Online Review Report Card

She was extremely aggressive, which turned nasty, at a patient while in hospital. She even turned personal. The experience was upsetting as her attack approach clearly showed a lack of interest in actual patient wellbeing. As heart patient, felt it was wrong to be berated. "Health" care implies they work towards your health, it doesn't mean she should stress or upset a patient so badly. I would never refer her to anyone; would refuse to see her ever again unless I was in an emergency situation and had no choice. A bad look for her, the hospital, and her office.

She is very moody and seems put out when asked questions about the conditions. She doesn't want you to question her reasoning. I would avoid her if possible.

Very attentive. knowledge, takes each individual very seriously. Hate to see her leave the clinic and go to strictly ER/hospital treatment. She is a great MD & so helpful with problems that arise but do not require ER visit. She will be greatly by me & my family. Her medical staff are so great to work with.

Took a lot of time. Explained my condition well.

Do not trust this cardiologist. She is rude, uncaring, and treats patients like their are at fault for having heart problems or are lying about their conditions.

I was actually searching for something else, and Dr. Fenton''s name popped up. She was my father's cardiologist when she was at Jefferson Hospital in Philadelphia. I have to say my father was every doctor's nightmare patient! Dr Fenton was just the nicest sweetest Dr he ever had and he had many! She always had time not only for him, but for me! Even when he was in hospital for 2 nights before he died she came and saw him and his family and also sent a lovely card after he passed away. I don't know who you guys are rating!

Dr Fenton is knowable to a point. I was told after a large ordeal years ago that I must have yearly echo cardiograms done to make sure all is ok. This was told to me by the award winning "best cardiologist in the west" whom saved my life 3 times upon moving to Helena I transferred my car I saw dr Fenton in 2015 and she just rubbed me the wrong was at that time she did the echo and all was ok but she was very rough around the edges then this year after pulmonary issues and multiple specialist whom recommended I have a cardio follow up done I booked an apoinmemt at this time I was and still am having lots of chest pains. The appointment was 3 months out 3 days before my apoinemnt her staff called me and said she reviewed my medical records and said I didn't need to be seen I was ferious but pushed th issue of getting the follow up so I was reshedualed 2 more months out finally this time I was able to be seen the stag was great her nurse was amazing one of the best nurses I've expriances in years very kind and knowaganle and apologies for the delays in she dialing etc. when dr Fenton came in everything changed she told me I was not needing to be there and acted as if I was wasting her time I explained that I was referred in by mutiple doctors for my chest pains and my lung issue could be effecting my heart plus it was time for my yearly echo she snapped off with your heart is fine you don't need yearly echos I again explained what the best carioglist in the west had done and to save my lift and that yearly echos was advised she said that they didn't know what I was talking about that I don't need such a thing but that she was going to order one to check the pressures in my lungs but that it I didn't need to be there yet she ordered the test anyways she was very rude and treated me poorly like I was a waste of her time she had the nerve to contradict my awarding winning pulmologist and she said my main concern should be lung cancer and that she would bet money on that I I have it I told her yes I'm under screening but my pulmogist says the chances are very slim that issues where more likly a result of a fungal infection and the screening is just a percaution she said he was wrong I don't know if she just had a bad day or what but fair warning to all who see her the attitude cam be bad

First of all I had to wait five weeks before I had my first test. No one called me after I had my first set of tests. Finally, I contacted the doctor office. I was seen by the nurse practitioner who told me I needed a second set of tests. I had the tests and had to wait about four more weeks to see the doctor. She was impatient and acted like I was wasting her time. She also told me the other cardiologist in the office and the nurse practitioner misread the first tests, and I did not need the second tests. I did not feel comfortable with her at all. I would recommend her or the other cardiologist who shares the same office. I had to wait three months after an abnormal EKG before I finally saw one of cardiologist. I would rather go to another cardiologist in town, go out of town or even out of state before I would go back to her.

she has no bedside manner at all.

Dr Fento took the time to thoroughly answer my questions. She was very pleasant and easy to talk with. She explained everything in words I can understand.
