“Thanks Dr. Cunningham for getting me back to rock climbing.”

Mike Brumbaugh, Knee Surgery

“I had my ACL and MCL repaired by Dr. Cunningham. He provided me with ample education to make an informed decision on the procedure (own tendon vs. cadaver). The staff is great as well.”

Gerry D., Knee Surgery

“Dr. Cunningham is the LeBron James of orthopedic surgeons. Every point of contact with Vail Summit Orthopedics has been impressive… from the reception desk to the nurses to the way they run their business… an extremely High level of Excellence. This is by far the best Healthcare experience I’ve ever had.”

John P., Orthopedic Surgery

“Dr Cunningham and the entire VSO staff exceeded all of my expectations. It was so convenient to use the walk in clinic. I was amazed that we could get everything done in one visit….clinical exam, xrays and MRI right in their office. They added me to the surgical schedule that week and the entire surgery team was professional, experienced, and efficient. Two weeks later my knee feels better than ever. Great experience. Highly recommended.”
