What Patients are Saying About Dr. Donn Turner, MD

Thank you for taking care of me and performing my surgery. Already, five days out I have noticed the burning and stabbing pain in my left leg has decreased tremendously. What a relief!! I cannot tell you how gratifying it is to have a new perspective on life, no longer shadowed by constant pain. It is an art, what you do and I appreciate your care.

— Jessica

You fixed me up really well, Again. Thank you so much for making the pain better. Also your staff and the caregivers at Surgery Center of Fort Collins were outstanding.

— Katie

My recent surgery, lumbar fusion, has made such a difference in my life!!! I’m truly grateful for such competent, caring, caregivers, and want to thank all of you, Dr. Turner as well as the caring office staff. It has made a significant improvement in my comfort and well-being that “Thanks” seems so little a word!!! But “Thanks” is packed with much appreciation!!!

— Carol

I can’t thank you enough for the care and attention you gave me last week. We are also grateful for the time you and your staff took to talk with us to help us better understand our care.

— Joseph

We wanted to say “thank you” for your willingness and efforts in scheduling Harry’s appointment, the pre-admit process and surgery. Everyone was very professional, caring, and very considerate of our needs and requests. Dr. Turners’ skills are a blessing for many, with us at the top of the list. Harry is doing well, he still has some pain but says it’s minimal and different from pre-surgery. The booklet on the surgery healing process has been very informative. Thank you ALL again.

— Jan
