Dr. Davis’s Testimonials


“Dr. Davis and PA Abbott, I just wanted to thank you for the great work you did on my shoulder.  I really appreciate the skill, teamwork and dedication you both showed in getting me back to work. I have enclosed a couple of things that I want you both to have as a token of my appreciation.”

Sargent Jeff Bredehoeft


“I had a right distal biceps repair in August 6, 2018 . By Dec 12, 2018 I was back to full duty. Dr. Craig A Davis and his staff did an amazing job on me. Everyone was helpful and polite throughout my recovery. Thank you very much!!”

Oscar S. | Thornton, CO


“Dr. Davis and his staff were very friendly, supportive, and professional. I had to have two surgeries. Both were uneventful and seemed very routine. At every turn during my treatments, I believed that I was the most important thing happening. This means a lot when your health and well-being are at stake. Thanks for caring about Me.”

Lloyd R. | Bailey, CO


“Dr. Davis is professional and thorough. He performed two surgeries on me, one on each wrist, and both healed quickly and the pain is gone! Every interaction with him has been great. He truly cares about his patients and takes the time to explain each problem and the potential solutions completely. I hope I don’t need surgery again, but if I do, he will be the first person I call.”

Kyle W. | Aurora, CO


“We cannot say enough about Dr. Davis and his entire staff. My husband has had three Dupuytren’s Contracture surgeries and all have been a most positive experience. Dr. Davis is personable, professional and makes you feel you can put yourself totally in his hands and you will be fine, which has always been the case. My husband and I would recommend him highly to anyone we know. His PA and Nursing staff are also exceptional. You never wait long for answers to questions via phone or email.”

Caryl H. | Aurora, CO


“Dr. Davis took excellent care of me during my injury. He was able to surgically repair broken bones at my elbow that have totally healed without loss of motion and with no permanent restrictions. I was able to return to normal activities within 2 months and sports activities within 3 months. I am so thankful for the attention and skill the doctor provided. “

Elaine K. | Centennial, CO


“I’ve had the good fortune of being operated upon by Dr. Davis twice. I’m returning soon for a third operation. He continues to impress me as an unusually thoughtful and sympathetic human being. I’m satisfied that I’ve always been well-informed of my injuries, the relevancy of the procedures he’s performed and the outlook I may have. Really cool guy. I’ve healed well from both surgeries and look forward to better health after the third. I would trust the care of my wife and daughter to him.”

Dr Davis is a fantastic doctor. He replaced one of my arthritic knuckles and it works amazingly. I am a guitarist and was concerned about losing the dexterity in my cording hand. However, everything worked out incredibly well. He continues to treat me for ongoing arthritis in my wrest with injections and they work wonderfully well. I highly recommend Dr Davis.

Feb 2026: back to see Dr. Davis. Like I said IYKYK. This team cares and has many options. It's never fun having to be treated, but Dr. Davis is knowledgeable and has a good sense of humor.
Dr. Davis and his amazing team have supported me for nearly 10 years! Yes, I am a repeat customer--I work hard and play harder! Seriously, through each experience Tony, Tim and Dr. Davis were thorough, sensitive to my recovery goals and patient with me when I had new injuries. Thank you, gentlemen, for all of your care!

The wait was a little long but not really a complaint. I was taken back, seen within a few minutes. He checked me for my complaint, my left shoulder, and made a decision right then and there to do a corticol steroid injection. It’s taken me months from my Primary care to even do anything to get to this point. I had a great experience and I am glad I came to see him.

I went to doctor Davis in 2024. He took care of two elbow surgeries for me and I just had my third one done and it was a successful surgery so I’ve had two tennis elbows and one golfer’s elbow surgery and he’s a very good doctor with all his medical assistance around him they’re all very great and I would recommend this to anybody that needs surgery done on their hands, shoulder or elbow.

The medical staff is great, they answer my questions and explain information wonderfully. Dr Davis and his assistant are wonderful! He has done a carpel tunnel release on my left and I was coming in to have it done on my right. But I was somewhat disappointed with the office this time, I made an appointment by calling, because I couldn’t do it online. Got a confirmation from the office, but when I got there I was not on the schedule. Dr. Davis agreed to fit me in, which was nice. However I was at the office for almost 2 hours before I was seen.
