Dr. Willen is great. I have been seeing him for years and highly recommend him. He runs on-time and you aren't left waiting for 30-60 minutes in the waiting room to be seen. His front desk staff and nurses are amazing, kind, and friendly!
Dr. Willen and staff are incredibly kind and address all concerns.
I have avoided going in for an annual check up for far too long. I felt as if my issues were always treated with dismissal from my previous doctor. I made my appointment with Dr. Gary Willen and got in fairly quick. I felt like I was seen and heard as well as had some education on certain things that could be causing my symptoms. The front desk women as well as his nurse practitioner were very welcoming. I highly recommend this office!
He cares and so does his staff. Makes you feel comfortable and taken care of.
Dr willen has always been a doctor you can talk to and ask questions and he will give you an answer staff is always wonderful to

Always helpful and understanding
Very pleasant experience. Dr. Willen is very knowledgeable and caring.
Great doc, listens and caring
I’ve gone in and the medical assistants are always nice and kind to me. The first time I went in, the medical assistant asked me a few times if I am on birth control (no) and if I’m looking to get on birth control (firm no). My reasoning is because I don’t have super painful periods, and my periods are usually pretty regular. I went in looking for answers on why I was having really bad pain and the doctor hears my age and sexual activity status and spent my whole appointment talking to me about birth control rather than my symptoms of concern. It did come back as a bad infection and I was worried it would have affected my fertility, so coming back in for check up, it was one of my concerns for the doctor. Again, birth control was brought up and again, I said no, and he asked “are you trying to get pregnant?” And I said no. He kept looking at me with a look as if I was incompetent because I don’t want birth control and I don’t want to get pregnant. He then asked me “then why are you concerned about your fertility?” And I responded “for when I want to in the future” (I’m 19). I’m wondering if there is some sort of commission or kickback for this certain/special type of birth control that is trying to be pushed onto me. After my last quote, he then said “well if you change your mind, let me know” then just walked out. He isn’t very kind or gentle. During examination, he isn’t so gentle or calming. The medical assistant(s) that I’ve had in the room are usually the ones that are calming and gently talk to you and comfort you. The medical assistants are also the ones I can ask questions and get answers to the questions and concerns that I ask.
Pleasant and responsive to my questions and concerns.
Everyone was kind and I had a great time with the doctor!
Great experience with staff and Dr. Willen. Very knowledgeable and explains everything quite well.
