Dr. Miller listened to my health problems related to my shoulder arm and hand and he made excellent recommendations to address my diagnoses but said that surgery was not a great idea due to my complicated neuro muscular and orthopedic problems.

A year ago I had bad pain in left shoulder that therapy and exercise were unable to correct. I had very limited function in my left arm. A year ago Dr Miller performed an RTSA and replaced my left shoulder. The pain went away almost immediately. After physical therapy and continued exercise my left shoulder is pain free and almost as strong as my right shoulder. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Dr Miller and his assistants were helpful, answering all of my questions. I was anxious going into the surgery but their responses helped a great deal. I highly recommend Dr Miller and his staff for their professionalism, followup and correction of a severe problem.rater8 Verified Patient

Dr. Miller throughly and clearly explained his diagnosis and recommended treatment plan. He also helped me to understand the connection between a neck disc issue and my shoulder impingement. Not only did his clear explanation reduce my anxiety, it let me see how certain actions I was taking in yoga and wall climbing would continue to cause the same result. This was invaluable because now I can either look at modifications or switch activities. This was my third visit with Dr.Miller and each one has been great.

Dr. Miller is outstanding. He's a shoulder expert. I had to find a new doctor closer to my residence. He's the 3rd. doc in the Bethesda/Rockville area that I saw. He took the time to go over my MRI, gave me options, told me pros/cons, etc etc. Unlike the other ORTHOs I saw who came into the room and said " You need surgery." Dr. Miller explained options. He also took one look at my shoulders/arms and knew I had a preexisting condition that none of the other docs saw! Can't say enough about this doc.... THOUGHT HE WAS GREAT! Highly recommend.Patient Submitted Review

Both Dr Miller and his PA, Gina are professional, knowledgeable, and listen well.

Jul-2023
I liked that Dr. Miller didn’t push for surgery at our 1st consultation even though my x-rays showed severe osteoarthritis in my shoulder. He explained my options and left it up to me. The surgery, 2 years and a few injections later, was my decision. I liked that he was skilled enough and sensitive enough to my extreme claustrophobia to proceed with just a pre-op cat scan and not an MRI, too. I like that the incision is practically invisible. And I couldn’t be more satisfied. I’m pain free with 95% range of motion back in just over five months. Together, with the assistance of Gina, his eminently qualified and very responsive PA, I felt comfortable, confident and well-informed about the procedure both pre and post op. I’ve already recommended him to a “thankful” friend.Patient Submitted Review

I was able to get an appointment with Dr. Miller in a fairly short period of time. I expect it was because I saw Dr. Miller at 7:20 AM. A complete XRay of my shoulder and neck were done. Dr. Miller did a clinical exam of my neck and shoulder. He also explained why I developed bursitis and that he thought cortisone shots to my shoulder joint over a course of time could reduce symptoms. That assessment was a great relief because I expected that I would need shoulder replacement surgery. The shot has already relieved my discomfort. I am hoping for reduced symptoms as a result of a course of treatment with cortisone shots; PT; and keeping active!Patient Submitted Review

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Miller (meniscal repair and cyst removal). From the first meeting, Dr. Miller explained everything to me clearly and made me feel heard. He was very practical when explaining the success rate of my surgery and recovery time. Him and his staff were always helpful and kind. They ensured I had a smooth prep, surgery, and follow-up. I would highly recommend Dr. Miller to anyone.Patient Submitted Review

I found Dr. Craig Miller to have a excellent bed side manner. My injury was my left shoulder after a fall on Ice. After the surgery I really hated Dr.Craig but as I healed he became my hero. I had some discomfort for about 3 weeks but no Pain. PT went very well and I can say I’m back to 99% with a need for some weight training.Thank You Dr. Craig.Patient Submitted Review

Things that did not happen: 1) We did not wait more than 5 minutes to be taken to the exam room, 2) We did not have to fill in lots of paperwork, everything was done on-line or via a tablet, 3) We did not have to wait for the x-ray technician, she showed up right after our check-in, 4) we did not have to wait for the doctor, he showed up within 5 minutes of returning to the room. The whole visit was efficient, and the staff, nurses and doctors were very kind and answered all our questions.Patient Submitted Review

Dr. Miller repaired my torn rotator cuff. I had consulted two other surgeons, both of whom I liked, before I saw Dr. Miller. The way he explained exactly what needed to be done to repair the rotator cuff as he showed me on the MRI gave me total confidence in him. His easy going, calm and friendly demeanor increased my confidence and lessened the anxiety I had as I headed into surgery. I am extremely pleased with the outcome of the surgery and expect a complete recovery of my shoulder. All the people I spoke with that knew of Dr. Miller, told me that he is one of the best shoulder orthopedists in the DC area and I would definitely concur.Patient Submitted Review

I saw Dr. Miller for a second opinion after a knee injury. The first orthopedist said there was nothing surgical she could do and left. Dr. Miller took the time to walk through the MRI with me, show me where the damage was in my knee, discuss treatment options both short and long term. Not only did he listen to my concerns and answer my questions - we came up with a treatment plan and follow-up and I walked out with confidence that I will once again be able to enjoy activities.Patient Submitted Review

I definitely recommend Dr. Miller to friends and family with orthopedic needs pp.Patient Submitted Review

I've had shoulder and elbow problems for years. Dr. Miller is the second ortho doctor I visited. The first doctor told me to be happy with what I am still able to do (I am a 48 year old female and I couldn't swim or get on an elliptical at the gym without arm and shoulder pain.) Dr. Miller has made it possible for me to go to the gym and use my arm again. I've had female friends complain about doctors not taking their health or injuries seriously. If that's you - go visit Dr. Miller.Patient Submitted Review

My two-year-old son broke his right leg (tibia spiral fracture). Dr. Craig Miller was so good with kids. My son is usually terrified of strangers, especially doctors. My son loved Dr. Miller and is excited to go back for his checkup. I would recommend Dr. Miller to anyone, especially if you want an American doctor who speaks English.Read more
