"The major health facility in Helena, St. Peter's Health, is profoundly user unfriendly for outpatient care. Large obstacles to satisfactory care are the phone access and the lack of information on the SPH website."
— Helena Independent Record Opinion Piece"Investigators said the lack of official documentation of the complaints against the male nurse was part of a systemic failure in how St. Peter’s handled multiple reports of sexual abuse by two staff members in 2023 and 2024."
— Montana Free Press"I am a frequent flyer at the St Peters Health Lab and I love love love the folks who work there. I can't say enough about how friendly they are - how I am a person not just a number to them."
