Not sure what to say?

Dr. Saari was a kind, thoughful and caring physician and I was shocked and saddened to learn of his death. I was a patient for many years and I always felt I received Dr. Saari's full attention during the visit. He will certainly be greatly missed and my deepest sympathy goes out to his family and friends over such a great loss.

I knew George well--both from my time practicing in Montana, and more recently for his work with our students. He was a fine man and a real advocate for the medical students. He will be missed.

Dr. Saari was an incredibly talented and compassionate physician, mentor, and person. His lessons taught will never be forgotten, and his calming nature is something to be admired. He made a great impact on our education in Bozeman, and always reminded us to enjoy life and follow our passions. My sincere sympathy goes out to his friends and family.

I was a patient of Dr. Saari's for almost 9 years and must say that I was really surprised and sad when I learned that he died. He took such good care of me and gave me lots of encouragement! He was always so nice and pleasant that I found myself looking forward to my appointments with him. He was one of the few doctors who were interested in my life outside of my health problems which made me feel more like a person than just a medical case. I will miss him very much and know that no...
