"Dr. Miller is a very well known cardiac surgeon. My valves were nearly unpreparable. He was wonderful. Called me by my nickname and also saved my life. During preparatory tests he discovered lung cancer and made arrangements for a thoracic surgeon to work with him and take out the cancer tumor while he replaced my valves with tissue valves. He is kind and compassionate."

"Dr Miller couldn't have been more professional and caring. He was the President of the Cardiothoracic Society of the USA. Just about as good as it gets. He said, "I've never lost a patient and don't intend to change that situation." He performed the surgery personally! I feel super now!"

"Dr. Miller is highly regarded and nationally known. He explains things clearly and patiently, with a fine sense of humor, and boosts your confidence. My outcome was excellent -- and, to top it off, I experienced no incision pain (although that is not guaranteed). I would recommend him to anyone facing heart valve surgery."

"Dr. Craig Miller took time to explain all procedures and answer any questions. He is a Professor at Stanford and talking with him feels like sitting in a class, very interesting and thorough. The operation went smoothly and after care was outstanding. Can't recommend him enough, him and his team are caring, brilliant surgeons."

"Dr. Miller was fantastic at explaining my condition, how he performs his surgeries and how he focuses on long term quality and durability of the repair. He did a great job explaining this to my parents and wife just after my surgery and he also visited me a few times in the hospital during my recovery. Last but not least, he did a remarkable job. My cardiologist tells me there is absolutely no sign of a leak with my mitral valve."

"Dr. Miller and his staff was great. He was personally involved in a number of post surgery complications I had and came to visit me in the evening to see how I am doing including Saturdays"
