Abstract
Dr. Miller Edwin Preston was a surgeon with a deep interest in trauma and orthopaedics who practiced in Denver in the early 1900s. Dr. Preston arrived in Denver shortly after the creation of Denver's first city hospital in 1860. This hospital would later be renamed to Denver General Hospital and then Denver Health Medical Center. It excels for the quality of its emergency medicine residency program, a very high survival rate for severely injured patients and the clinical pathways and algorithms pertinent to the management of haemodynamically unstable pelvic ring injuries among others. Today, Dr. Preston's legacy of excellence in the management of trauma patients is alive and well at Denver Health Medical Center, the city's only level-one safety net hospital and academic affiliate of the University of Colorado Medical School.Entities:
