I have doctored with Dr. Hammerstein for approximately three years. In my opinion, Dr. Hammerstein is the best surgeons I have had in my 70 years. He is one of the most caring of doctors, and I've experienced many. He is a professional and a very interesting man to talk to. He did repair my lower spine a year ago this August, completely rebuilding it with implants and 9 screws. I have had NO trouble with my lower back since I highly recommend Dr. Hammerstein of Missoula, for any back surgeries one might have. I have unwavering faith in this man in the care of my back. The only complaint I have is that he doesn't work on any other procedures. Judy Janssen. Ronan MT
