Dr. Gary Willstein, MD

My rotator cuff was 90% torn & Dr Willstein did my needed surgery. 10 weeks into my recovery I developed a frozen shoulder on top of it—SO painful. Dr Willstein has been so attentive & caring through the entire ordeal & I’m making great strides now. He’s terrific & his assistant Andy is awesome too. Great team!

I am extremely satisfied with Dr. Willstein. The hip replacement surgery went well and the recovery has been fast. I've now had both hips replaced by Dr. Willstein.

Dr. Willstein is a professional of the highest degree. He is most courteous and kind in his bedside approach. His skills as a surgeon are the best!! Excellent outcome after my Total reverse shoulder surgery. I would always recommend him as a great Doctor!!!!

I've had Dr. Willstein perform two knee replacements and repair a completely torn bicep. He's always performed surgery so well that I get 100% mobility and strength back. HIs bedside manner is gentle and kind and I also highly recommend his P.A. Wade Hudson.

I highly recommend Dr. Willstein. Dr. Willstein performed a total knee replacement for me in June. He explained fully what the procedure would be and what my recovery would depend on. I feel he was very honest and was there when I needed support. I feel like I have been given a new lease on life. Thank you Dr. Willstein!

Dr. Willstein performed 2 surgeries for me: Total Knee Replacement in March of 2018 and Rotator Cuff surgery in June 2019. He did an excellent job! I am now pain free!! I have had pain for a lot of years prior to surgery. He explained both procedures in detail, answered all of my questions and was very professional throughout all of my appointments. Highly recommended!!!! If you are in pain, see Dr. Willstein and he will take very good care of you!

My experience with Dr. Willstein was great. He is very caring and willing to answer questions and I felt like he was invested in my recovery after surgery.

Excellent prognosis but no surgery just PT

excellent almost painless

Dr. Willstein will always be held in the highest regard. Im grateful for my outcome and owe it to Dr. Willsteins care and expertise he demonstrated while being under his supervision. I will definitely recommend Dr. Willstein to others .

Very easy to talk to and he answered all of my questions. Prior to surgery he was very reassuring and I was very comfortable.

Doctor Willstein is a fantastic surgeon and a very good person. I am like to call Gary my friend: he is the most trusted surgeon that I know. He repair an ACL on my wife few years ago and it was an absolute success and that my wife never had problem up to date.

Excellent I have RN’s in our family who are very impressed with this doctor. He is just as caring to his staff as he is to his patients.

Dr. Willstein replaced both my hips within 7 months and I feel great. He was very respectful, compassionate and honest. His support staff is equally awesome.

I had a torn medial meniscus. I waited until fluid buildup in the knee was getting ahead of me Waiting was worse than good. This kept me from lots of everyday activities. In July 2017, Dr. Willstein was my surgeon for my knee. I was in excellent care by very friendly staff, reception, to nurses, & anesthesiologist, and especially my surgeon, Dr. Willstein. I had a very excellent experience! My healing time was exceptional. My trust is with Dr. Willstein at MB&J, and all staff.

My experience with Dr. Willstein went beyond my expectations. He performed simultaneous knee replacements on both of my knees last March 6th. Although hesitant originally to perform both procedures at the same time, with further testing Doctor agreed to do the procedures. I started PT immediately after my hospital release and a month later really began making progress. My therapists were aggressive and at 2 months I was completely pain free and I returned to work. Dr. Willstein gave me life back

Dr Willstein operated on my shoulder and did a terrible job. Told him and he said he could do nothing (he is a Quack if you ask me. I went to several others and was told they could do nothing! good old boys club I guess. Met Justin Jacobson new to Missoulaand he said he could fix it and did just that 3 years later works great.

Dr. Willstein has replaced both of my knees, one in 2012, the other in 2017, The outcome was great. I recommend him to anyone needing help with knee or hip problems, He is professional and caring.

I value the courtesy and caring of all the staff at Missoula Bone and Joint. I was called within 20 minutes of my arrival. Dr. Gary Willstein was very thorough in reviewing my X-rays and MRI images with me, making sure that I understand my problem, the corrective surgery needed and rehab needs and expectations. He even called me at home the next week to discuss my case further. My full trust in the integrity and expertise of these providers has not wavered.

I was very pleased with the expertise, advice and care received from Dr. Willstein for a broken collar bone. He provided clear direct options and advice. Surgery was excellent and all follow up visits were great.
