Retired as of 2013, Dr. Donald R. Gore, MD, MS, Orthopedic Surgeon has been named a 2017 Top Doctor in Wisconsin. Top Doctor Awards is dedicated to selecting and honoring those healthcare practitioners who have demonstrated clinical excellence while delivering the highest standards of patient care.
Dr. Gore’s acclaimed career in medicine began in 1960, when he graduated with his Medical Degree from the University of Illinois, followed by an internship at Milwaukee County General Hospital. During his training, he was a Captain in the United States Air Force, gaining extensive training in general surgery and all aspects of orthopedic surgery. He then completed a six month biomechanic fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco. Dr. Gore was board certified in Orthopedic Surgery, and became a clinical professor at the Medical College of Wisconsin in 1980.
In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Gore was involved with teaching orthopaedic residents and medical students, and was also involved in clinical and basic research at the Medical College of Wisconsin and Wood Veterans Administration Medical Center. He has authored and coauthored over 50 scientific publications, and in the later part of his career became interested in degenerative disorders of the cervical spine. Throughout his distinguished career, Dr. Gore received numerous awards including a Distinguished Service Award from the Department of Orthopedic Surgery at the Medical College of Wisconsin, and a Teacher of the Year Award for Orthopedic Residents from the Medical College of Wisconsin in 1977 and 1984. He has also been recognized by the Best Doctors in America in 1996, and Who’s Who in the World in 2001.
Dr. Gore was married to his wife Jacqueline for a happy and beautiful 57 years. Together they had four children, Donald, Daniel, Jennifer, and Elizabeth, and 13 grandchildren. Dr. Gore’s grandson, Robert Jason Gore passed away while serving in Iraq. Three years ago, he also suffered the loss of his wife but keeps both of their memories alive through the establishment of the Robert Jason Gore Foundation, a scholarship fund with the Wisconsin Medical Society Foundation.
Currently retired from caring for individual patients, Dr. Gore is still available for medical legal consultations, and has recently moved to Milwaukee in May 2017. His dedication to his work and extensive expertise makes Donald R. Gore a very worthy winner of a 2017 Top Doctor Award.
