Bio
Dr. Miller is a board-certified, fellowship-trained arthritis and joint replacement surgeon at Stanford Health Care Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine. He is also a clinical associate professor in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Miller received fellowship training in adult reconstructive orthopaedic surgery at RUSH Medical College in Chicago, Illinois. He completed his residency in orthopaedic surgery at Stanford University Medical Center, where he was chief resident.
Dr. Miller uses innovative techniques, including robotic-assisted surgery, to deliver exceptional orthopaedic care. He specializes in minimally invasive total knee replacement and total hip replacement (arthroplasty). Dr. Miller is at the forefront of the latest technology, and he is passionate about using these advances to improve surgical outcomes and enhance his patients’ well-being.
He pioneered the use of a smartphone mobile application that patients can access following joint replacement surgery. The app helps patients stay engaged during the recovery process. It enables them to track their progress and communicate with their doctor from the palm of their hand. Dr. Miller was instrumental in the multiphase clinical trial for the app, which also helps patients prepare for surgery, provides patient education, and includes exercises they can perform on their own during post-op rehabilitation.
Additionally, Dr. Miller’s research interests include preventing prosthetic joint infections and performing safe and precise outpatient joint replacement procedures. He has also studied the most effective knee arthroplasty techniques for patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
As an expert in robotic-assisted joint replacement surgery, Dr. Miller has served as a consultant and taught other surgeons how to use this sophisticated technology. He has demonstrated the robot’s capabilities and discussed its benefits with colleagues in the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) and the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons (AAHKS). Dr. Miller’s articles have appeared in several peer-reviewed journals, including JAMA Surgery, the Journal of Arthroplasty, and the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. He has also contributed information about osteonecrosis (bone tissue death) of the hip to the AAOS patient education website.
Dr. Miller is a fellow of AAOS and AAHKS. He is also a member of the Western Orthopaedic Association and the California Orthopaedic Association.
