As part of our Addiction rotation, Dr. Gallaher took a break from the clinic to get hands-on with the Billings Fire Department—today’s highlight: repelling from a 4-story building! 🚒

A big thank you to for welcoming us and sharing your training—your partnership makes these experiences possible!

🎉 Happy Thank a Resident Day to our MFMR residents! 🎉

You are the heart of this program—caring for patients, supporting each other, and becoming outstanding physicians while doing it all. (Kind of a big deal, if you ask us.)

Your hard work, dedication, and compassion do not go unnoticed. You make a difference every single day, and we are incredibly grateful for you. 💙

This video is just a small glimpse of how much you’re appreciated.

Take a moment to watch and help us celebrate this incredible group!

We loved representing MFMR at the annual ACGME Conference!
Drs. Albers and Brand, along with Lanette, had a great experience learning, connecting, and bringing back fresh ideas. We’re excited to share what we learned with our MFMR community soon! 🌟

🎉 Congratulations to our very own MFMR faculty member, Dr. Shae Saunders, on being named a Billings Gazette 40 Under 40 award recipient! Her commitment, leadership, and passion shine through in everything she does, helping bring our mission to life and serving the Billings community.

But that’s not all! Kaci Jansma, PA, has also been recognized as a 40 under 40 recipient for her hard work and dedication—a well-deserved honor!

We’re proud to have both of them as part of MFMR and RiverStone Health. Their achievements highlight the talent, dedication, and positive impact happening right here in our community!

We are thrilled to celebrate two incredible members of our team, Shae Saunders and Kaci Jansma, for being named to the 40 Under Forty list! 👏✨

Across our campuses, our providers work every day to deliver high-quality care, advocate for patients and strengthen the health of our community. Shae and Kaci truly embody that commitment. Their leadership, compassion and dedication make a lasting impact on the patients and families we serve.

We are so proud of you both and grateful to have you as part of the RiverStone Health team. Congratulations on this well-deserved recognition! 💙

Our residents got some great practice this week using their handheld Butterfly ultrasound devices. They worked on incision and drainage of abscesses using simulated models (yes--that's chicken breasts with water balloons!).

Each resident receives their own Butterfly for all three years of training, giving them plenty of opportunities to build confidence and skill in point-of-care ultrasound.

A huge shout-out to Dr. Saunders and Dr. Stump for leading this fantastic teaching session! 👏

We are deeply saddened to share the passing of Jimmie Ashcraft, MD. His generosity and commitment to teaching left a lasting impact on our MFMR residents and our community. From 2002-2007, Dr. Ashcraft worked countless hours to support and guide future family physicians, and his influence continues to be felt today. We hold his family in our hearts and extend our deepest condolences during this difficult time.

View Jimmie Lee Ashcraft, MD's obituary, send flowers, find service dates, and sign the guestbook.
