Investigator Profile: Erin Miller, MD

Research Interests

Dr. Miller's career goal is to improve the care of patients with extremity injuries. She is interested in optimizing patient experiences within the healthcare system, with an overarching goal of improving outcomes. This has led her to a variety of research pursuits, from using Virtual Reality as an adjunct to wound care/procedures, collaboration with the Emergency Department to improve hand care, to reviewing outcomes in both common and uncommon hand pathologies.
