Dr. Caruso took care of my 14 year old son after he suffered full thickness burns from falling in a fire pit last May. He will forever be in our hearts. Upon meeting him for the very first time we knew we were in the best hands, he was unbelievably knowledgeable, honest and compassionate. We are so sorry to hear of his passing but will be forever grateful we met him.

Dan was one of the chief residents during my general surgery training at MMC. Those were special times with an amazing group of people. Dan was a great role model and leader. He was always positive, humanistic, and fair.

I had the gift of working with Dr. Caruso while at MIHS from 2008-2015. My sister, a police officer, said if she was ever injured in the line of duty to make sure she was taken to MIHS emergency/trauma dept. Why? Because Dr. Daniel Caruso and his great trauma/burn team are there and he and they save cops lives, was her answer. Dr. Caruso was always a calm, kind and cool headed presence amid a busy trauma and burn unit that saved lives daily. I offer my deepest prayers and condolences to his family, and his staff at MIHS. May his legacy live on in the great work his staff will continue to do in treating the patients of MIHS and the Arizona Burn Center with compassion and incomparable skill. -J. Keane

I am very sorry to hear of the passing of this wonderful person. I have not seen Dan for many years and he would not remember me. I originally met him in the burn unit at Marciopa Medical Center. I was a vendor. I was very impressed with his humbleness, professionalism, sense of caring and compassion. I could tell that he was going to go far and had the natural ability to be a great leader, mentor for both other physicians and patients as well, and would be loved by all. Prayers to all of the family who loved him so much.
