Patient Reviews

Dr Gates did amazing work. No issues with a quick recovery. All the staff there are great to work with and have helped every step of the way with answers to questions and lend an ear talking into consideration the challenges my family and I have faced during this whole process. I recommend anyone that needs any of their services. Not to mention the hospital nurses have mentioned they have never seen any complications with the work done by Mountain West Surgical. If i have the option to return to them for surgery they have earned my confidence at all levels.

Dr Gates is a true expert at what he does and he's very personable too. I felt extreme ease in his care and he comes highly reccomended!! PA Montana is also a true gem.
