Alaska Internal Medicine & Pediatrics

It is wonderful to find physicians who follow science and promote the most basic of measures to protect the health of their patients and their community! Thank you for doing what is right, even when it isn’t popular. <3

This office should be commended for practicing evidence based medicine and protecting their most vulnerable patients.

Excellent practice. Very caring staff!!

I don't particularly like going to the doctor's office, however, my experience here was positive and the treatment was good. I would see Dr. Michele O'Fallon again for my medical needs.

Thank you for taking the medical stance necessary to protect society. Not many folks like to practice what they preach these days. If doctors can be sued for malpractices, they should also have the right to refuse those who deny their medical advice to protect themselves from those same suits. They should be able to protect their collective patients who would be affected by the inactions (or refusal) of others as well.

I don’t support a place that takes away a person choice in their medical care.

Trying to force your personal desire to try out the covid shots on your patients goes completely against medical ethics. What’s next, vegetarian docs who won’t treat omnivores? Non-smokers who won’t treat smokers? Whatever happened to providing unbiased life saving treatment to everyone who needs it? Shame on you.

Dr. Michelle O’Fallon has decided she would rather let patients who need life-saving drugs die than to help them, if they are unwilling to inject themselves with experimental vaccines which have not been FDA-approved. I encourage everyone to read up on the case of Courtney Chavez, of Wasilla, a stay-at-home mother of two who suffers from multiple autoimmune diseases. Since 2007 Mrs. Chavez has been receiving life saving drugs from Alaska Internal Medicine and Pediatrics in Anchorage. However, this past July she was informed that she would no longer be given these life-saving drugs because of her "refusal" to be vaccinated for Covid-19. Mrs. Chavez attempted to explain that she was not anti-vaccine, but that she is hesitant to inject herself with experimental vaccines not FDA-approved out of fear the the side effects could be fatal, as she has had severe allergic reactions to medications in the past. This means nothing to Dr. Fallon or her cohorts. The Hippocratic Oath means nothing either. Though Mrs. Chavez has been unable to find another provider for the life-saving medications she depends on, Dr. Fallon and her associates continue to refuse service. They would rather watch a patient die than to respect their right to choose what they do with their own bodies. Shame on you, Dr. Fallon. Shame on everyone who choose to go along with your evil, disgusting behavior.

No jab no service no deal!

Shame on this clinic & it’s physicians for their COVID VACCINE policy. These physicians should know that there are legitimate medical reasons why some people cannot take vaccines, like those who are immune compromised for one! They took the Hippocratic oath to “FIRST DO NO HARM” & that means for ALL patients. Shame on you! Shame!

Whether you support taking the covid vaccine or not you shouldn't go to these doctors. Everyone knows that being vaccinated doesn't stop one from getting infected or being contagious. So either they have this policy because they just want political compliance or they are incompetent. Either way you don't want any of that.

They won't help anyone who has not had the Covid shot? What about your Hippocratic (sp?) Oath? Did they finally decide to show us they are only in the medical field for the money? I think so! This "medical practice" should be sued into oblivion. It is very disheartening to hear about them telling one of their patients, with major medical problems, who they have been treating for quite a while, they will no longer keep them as a patient because they have not been vaccinated. This is coercion and is illegal. Now this patient has no place to turn to for medical assistance. The patient can not find anyone else. Oh yeah, one more thing...the photo shows an entire staff of women. I wonder how much gossiping about patients goes on there and all the drama...

Medical coercion is illegal. It’s only a matter of time until you loose your medical license!! Disgusting vile practice. Stay away if you value your life!!

My husband has been to this office to see dr Engler. After 3 appointments and multiple rounds of blood work we still didn’t have an answer to my husbands medical condition. Understandable, considering no other doctor has figured it out. The reason I give the office such a low review is because they would not allow my husband to continue medical care with out a Covid Vaccination. No matter what our personal reasons were for not getting it. “The health of there other patients comes first”. Now we have to start over again with another Doctor. Even though they will send the records, that process is frustrating.

Have been seeing Dr. Laurie Montano for many years. Excellent, thorough Dr. and very caring. Staff, very helpful and friendly.

Both my children, my parents, and I all go to Alaska Internal Medicine and Pediatrics. I would absolutely recommend their practice to my friends. The kids have always felt comfortable with Dr Montano, and the staff are very friendly. They always have time to see the kids when they are sick and check up on them telephonically to ensure they are doing well afterwards.
