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.

She saw me as a whole person, not a condition
I went to Dr. Montoya for chronic pain and paresthesias in both arms and hands. While she was examining me and doing all the neurologic tests, I started moping and crying about a man who had left me two years before. Dr. Montoya saw that I passed all the neurologic tests, and yet I had these symptoms. At the end of the visit, she looked me in the eyes and said, Do you want to keep on feeling sorry for yourself or do you want to get better? She knew my symptoms were due to stress over past hurts, not a physical cause. I went home, thought, and decided "get better." Next morning my symptoms were gone. My mind had cleared up over that breakup, and my body relaxed. I had no more numbness or tingling. That has maintained the last three months, even through the hurricane. Because I am now confident and relaxed.

Great Doctor
Fabulous! Dr. Montoya is one of the sweetest, intelligent and most understanding doctors that's treating my Brain Tumor & very painful Trigeminal Neuralgia. She's thorough and pays attention to all you say. She has great knowledge and source of treatment methods and I feel right at ease with every visit. Her office staff are also funny and caring.

I have been going to her for 17 years. She is very caring and keeps up to date with the new treatments out there. Her office even does the treatments for MS. So you don't need to go to the hospital when having treatment. She is also doing drug trials out of her office. I am in one. I wouldn't trade her for the world.

Dr.Montoya is the best neurologist I've had over 29 yeas. She is extremely knowledgeable and thorough in caring for you and keeping your MS in control. My initial visit with her lasted 1 1/2 hours. I never felt rushed while we determied my MS future journey. Get into Dr. Montoya' s for the best MS neurology care. You will love her and her excellent nurse practitioner Lynn Stengel.
