“Dr. Grey, the number one shoulder specialist in Northern Colorado, was gracious enough to take my case and operated on me remarkably quickly (only 2 weeks from my first appointment). He was very humble and caring.”

“Dr. Grey was incredibly thorough in his explanation of my shoulder issue, the surgical plan and follow up recovery therapy. Not only did he explain everything in words, but he also drew out what he was going to do and listed steps and timeline from surgery to recovery. I’m very fortunate to have him as my surgeon.”

– James O.

 

“Dr. Grey has been wonderful to work with over the past 12 years as he has corrected shoulder issues that have arisen from long-ago sports injuries and more recent shoulder traumas from my mountaineering and other adventure activities. He’s been equally patient and effective with his explanations to my wife, Kathy, in his post-surgical synopses of my condition and “what’s ahead”. We have found him, always, to be super informative and compassionate in understanding our hopes/desires. I can’t laud a surgeon more than I do him. Thanks so much for your expertise and personal caring.”

– Steve M.

– Tami P.
