Letter to the Editor: Research on Surgery Led Me to Dr. Millett
I was recently scheduled to have a total shoulder reversal an obviously complex and painful surgery. Prior to the surgery I spent time researching the best doctors and hospitals across the country and found Dr. Peter Millett and the Vail Valley Medical Center. I traveled from Iowa to have Dr. Millett and his professional team conduct my surgery.
My surgery went exceptionally well and the compassionate care I received from doctors and staff was remarkable. I could not have been happier with the out come and care I received.
I want to sincerely thank Dr. Peter Millett Steadman Clinic staff Vail Valley Medical Center pre-surgical planning nurses operating room staff pre-operative nurses PACU nurses anesthesiologist Dr. Lindsey Nelson patient care nurses care techs and my therapy team at Howard Head Sports Medicine. Everyone at the medical center who participated with my care was exceptional. I know there were many others who made my stay one of the best thank you from Iowa!
