Dr. John Gilstad
Physician
John Gilstad attended the U.S. Naval Academy after high school and stayed to complete his medical degree. For the next 28 years he worked with the military treating geriatric veterans and their families. His active-duty medical career placed him in Quantico with the Marines, the Naval base in Puerto Rico and at Walter Reed teaching and seeing patients in their outpatient clinics. Dr. Gilstad retired from the military in 2021; he and his wife considered moving to Washington, so he accepted a locum’s position working two weeks on/off. After a few months, they made the decision to stay in the Georgetown area so his wife could keep working. He has been fully retired for the last year and is eager to get back into a medical office.
