My phone number was changed to that of my estranged father of 12 years. He received my ultrasound confirmation text from the clinic and now knows I am pregnant. I never made any change involving his number. I called to ask why this happened and was told he could not have done it without the correct information. So how did this happen? I am extremely upset.

Dr. Hennessy is wonderful. She truly takes time to listen to her patients. She made me feel safe and gave me exceptional care from beginning to end.

I gave 2 stars because most doctors are excellent. However, as another reviewer said, Dr. Yarger does not respect patients' wishes or birth plans. She uses her position and authority to override patients' birth preferences and ultimately ruins their birth experiences. Unfortunately, she was on call when I unexpectedly went into labor, and needless to say, it was not a good experience. I have decided that if I become pregnant again, I will not return to Bozeman OB/GYN, because I already know my choices about my body and birth experience will not be respected or considered. Medically, Dr. Yarger is very good. But if you want a calm, natural birth without feeling rushed—especially if you want to avoid a C-section or attempt VBAC—I would definitely avoid her.

The Women's Clinic is wonderful! They meet my annual gynecologic needs and were excellent throughout my pregnancy. The nurse practitioners, especially midwife Brooke Caldwell, deserve special recognition. Everyone is attentive and makes me feel comfortable. I could not ask for a better team!

The receptionists are always pleasant. I had some excellent doctors; my baby measured small late in pregnancy, and I worked with wonderful doctors as we navigated that. However, I gave one star because one doctor never seemed to listen whenever I had an appointment with her. During my second pregnancy at 37 weeks, I asked to have my cervical dilation checked. The doctor, whose name I cannot remember, came in and was very dismissive. She said there was no need to examine me if I was not having contractions. The next day around 5 p.m., I went into labor. I arrived 5 centimeters dilated. If she had listened to my concerns and examined me, I might have been better prepared. My son came two weeks early. She acted as if they did not even want to waste a glove examining me. Postpartum, I also felt they wasted my time. I attended a six-week checkup, but the entire appointment could have been a phone call. They again did not physically examine whether I had healed after a vaginal delivery and minor suturing. I was more concerned about having my uterus checked. They only asked how I felt, and I felt pressured into birth control and other precautions because of my age and because I had just delivered my second child. Overall, I am dissatisfied with the OB/GYN office.

⚠️ I would give zero stars if I could. I am sure this place has potential, but I went here and was never truly seen. I no longer come here, and I believe God led me to my current provider so I could receive proper care, because this practice was 100% ineffective for me. After moving, I went to the emergency department with severe pain and discovered during my second trimester that I had an ovarian cyst—something that should have been identified on my first ultrasound at 7 weeks! This is my second pregnancy but first child. I kept wondering why I was in so much pain; it did not feel right or normal. I felt like a bad person because I was not enjoying pregnancy like others. If you can avoid this place and go elsewhere, please do so for your own and your child's sake. I am a Latina American, so I am unsure whether that contributed to the mistreatment I received. If you want to keep reading: I repeatedly reported flank pain and concerns about urinary tract infections, but they still dismissed me and did only the bare minimum at every visit. As a nurse, how can someone in this field be so cold, heartless, and spineless, especially in a field serving women? I went to the emergency department, where they could only tell me the baby had a heartbeat. They showed me nothing and could provide no more information, so I had to follow up with an OB/GYN. That is what happened to me, and I want others to know about my experience. This lets people understand the care this practice provides, or at least what I personally experienced. They will claim they try to treat every patient equally and continue with excuses, but it is false. I am now in my third trimester and doing much better after receiving appropriate care, following several nights of warm baths while experiencing contractions, confusion, pain severe enough to cause nausea, and yes, fear. I later developed several more UTIs. I had high hopes but was deeply disappointed—no pun intended.

Excellent staff and providers! The billing department is terrible.

We travel frequently during early pregnancy, and this was by far our best experience anywhere in the United States. They were kind, efficient, and informative and treated us like their own patients.

I am very grateful for the expertise of Dr. Shomento and her wonderful team. She is direct, candid, and honest, qualities I appreciate in a doctor. I have never encountered kinder nurses/support staff in my life. They made appointments enjoyable and always kept me smiling, even when the reality was difficult. I highly recommend Dr. Shomento!

Dr. Shomento is simply the best. She is caring, patient, and knowledgeable, and her team is also wonderful. Throughout my IVF journey, I always felt heard and cared for. Thanks to Dr. Shomento and her team, we now have our lovely daughter.

As soon as she learned that my girlfriend had not used a sperm donor, she demanded that I sign an agreement transferring parental rights. I refused, and she wrote a note saying that my husband was indecisive, which was a complete lie. They overcharge, are disorganized, and seem to have no idea what they are doing. If you value your future child, stay away from them at all costs! Do not make the mistake we made. It was a nightmare.

I am so heartbroken and disappointed that I am now giving up trying to become pregnant. I had a very unusual physical reaction after taking Femara, yet they never discussed side effects with me. When you call for a nurse, 9 times out of 10 your message is not returned for several days. When I called to ask why my period was 7 days late and whether Femara could be the cause, I was encouraged to take a pregnancy test, which was positive. For 48 hours I was on cloud nine, thinking I was finally pregnant. I had to call the Billings clinic to request bloodwork, again because they never answer the phone. When the result came back, I had to decipher the message myself and discovered I was not actually pregnant. They did not even have the courtesy to call and explain what might be happening in my body. Their best guess was that I "may have left the test in the sun too long, causing a false positive," which I absolutely did not do. I went from 48 hours of pure joy, imagining how to tell my loved ones I was finally pregnant, to heartbreak and disbelief. The clinic that was supposed to guide me through this complex, difficult ordeal simply told me I should call someone else to cry to.

Working with Dr. Shomento and her team was a dream. Throughout the process, Dr. Shomento was communicative, kind, direct, and helpful. Her nurses and staff were a pleasure to work with. They always followed up quickly, set clear expectations, and were wonderful to interact with during a stressful time. I felt I received first-rate care. Thank you!

I am genuinely surprised to read anything negative about Dr. Shomento. Based on my personal experience and journey, I cannot imagine trusting anyone more to manage my fertility care. She was always proactive, caring, empathetic, and willing to go above and beyond for my needs. Her team was excellent: my calls were returned promptly, my orders were always sent and followed up on, and my schedule was managed meticulously. Dr. Shomento even gave me her cell number for after-hours concerns. I always felt that she and her team genuinely cared and consistently worked toward a positive outcome. Dr. Shomento even took the time to assist with my cesarean delivery, which was very special to me. I have seen her face light up when she sees photos of or meets the babies she helped bring into the world. She is knowledgeable and highly skilled. Every day I thank God for Dr. Shomento and the blessing she gave me. I know she also makes many sacrifices for her profession, including long hours and weekends, and words cannot express my gratitude. I wish everyone facing fertility or reproductive problems the very best. May you find hope and strength on your journey. - Caitlin Stetzner

We loved working with Dr. Shomento and her team. I was 42 and very healthy but had no ovarian reserve; I was in menopause. We decided to use an egg donor from the beginning rather than attempt an egg retrieval that might fail. It was the best decision we ever made. We have a beautiful, healthy baby boy. He looks exactly like my husband, although people still say he looks like me. The entire process was smooth, easy, and successful. We went to Bozeman only once and worked with the team in Billings the rest of the time. We loved everyone we met. They were responsive and answered all my questions. We look forward to starting the process again soon!
