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.

Thinks he knows more than the experts
my eGFR blood test from a year ago was 67. Dr. Fitterer failed to inform me that met the threshold of stage 2 Chronic Kidney Disease. It is now at 59 and getting worse. Dr. Fitterer told me that 67 is normal. According to the National Kidney Foundation IT IS NOT. He insists that he is correct. I have talked to 2 Kidney specialists, both of whom stated he was wrong. He still believes that he is correct and the experts are wrong. He tried to schedule me for appointments even though he knows I am having surgery and cannot make it. He does listen, and misdiagnosed me in another area. I would not trust my medical issues in his hands.

Neglectful
I’m scared of having my health in the hands of Colin B. Fittered. In all my interactions with him, he had displayed an evident lack of interest in my well-being. At first, I noticed he was not very good and even neglectful. I went to his office to have some stitches removed from my finger. I was shocked that he was going to leave two stitches in even if they were very visible. After I pointed out that he still needed to remove the other two stitches, he didn’t appear apologetic. He removed them, telling me: “Oh, I’m glad you noticed.” That’s it, nothing like an alarming reaction or any reaction at all. It was almost as if he was out of his mind, or he just had complete lack of empathy toward me.I’m usually a very healthy person, so I thought I didn’t need the most amazing doctor since I rarely have any health problems. I sticked with him after that neglect.Recently, I developed an insomnia problem. I went to urgent care and they recommended me to con

Dr. Fitterer is one of the best, if not THE best, physicians I have seen. He is current on medical conditions and treatments, takes time to explain everything thoroughly, listens without interrupting, and treats his patients with compassion, concern, and understanding. I am extremely delighted that he is practicing in Billings.

Dr. Fitterer is not a great listener, rushed me out as soon as he could. His nurse Eve is rude and unprofessional!
