About

I have worked here at Saint Alphonsus since 2010 in some capacity. I graduated from University of North Dakota for PA school. I graduated from Boise State University with a radiologic sciences degree and worked here in Nuclear Medicine and the Cardiac Cath lab previously. I have been working in general cardiology for six years. Three years ago, I was given the opportunity to start a Lifestyle/Prevention program. I became certified in lifestyle medicine and currently see those patients 1-2 days a week.

The provider reminded me how old i was multiple times.

Thank you for caring about my health.

08/21/2023

While I would recommend this provider personally to anyone, I am concerned that she is already overbooked. It was difficult to get in to see her on a timely basis and the poor or even less than respectful communication with the schedulers reflected that.

08/17/2023

Enjoyed talking to Amber and liked that she spent time with me.

08/07/2023

I am excited to see/her at my next appointment

07/27/2023

The provider was great, but when you want me to check in online there is nothing to indicate where the appt is. Some people have several appts scheduled

She took her time in explaining things to me and listened to my feedback to give a very good evaluation of my problems

04/27/2023

Based on the very negative side effects of a "statin" prescription, I asked for a different type of cholesterol medication. I was brushed off with protocol vs. listening to the patient.

03/14/2023

Thank you for a good Dr Amber ❤️

03/01/2023

All your staff is overworked; I felt a little rushed. I could deal with it, but the problem is some symptoms go unreported when the patient feels pressured. Also, it's difficult to remember everything when stressed even more than the normal concern of seeing a medical provider in the first place

02/25/2023

Did great

02/22/2023

good

02/16/2023

A very pleasant experience.

12/01/2022

Was a very pleasant experience.

11/24/2022

Our discussion regarding sodium made me take a close look at the amounts of sodium I was actually eating. I' usually follow a low carb diet but after this appointment , I realized low carb is not what on should be on. I am now watching my sodium intake and plan to go on the Dash diet, both for weight loss and to help stabilize my blood pressure. I bought several Dash diet books to educate myself further.

10/17/2022

The Medical assistant was very thorough, the NP as well and really liked the PA, comfortable to talk to.

09/16/2022

Staff made me feel safe & comfortable!

08/06/2022

My only complaint was the gal that checked me in. I was 5 minutes early for appt, and waited 35 minutes before asking front desk girl why am I waiting so long when they were adamant I get there promptly. Apparently, her message that I was there wasn’t received and they were waiting for me. So, not happy I wasn’t checked in properly.

07/23/2022

*Amber was welcoming and courteous.

07/20/2022

I only saw this provider due to my regular cardiologist having to cancel unexpectedly and suggesting I see the PA to avoid further delays. However, I was very pleased with my visit and with this provider.

05/08/2022
