Dr. Mills is a warm, compassionate person. He is also patient and very clear in his explanations. When it is appropriate, he is very reassuring, without, however, minimizing the risks associated with treating serious medical conditions. He is an altogether exceptional doctor and human being.

This was my final visit with Dr Mills. He and I had a frank relationship about my PSA being high and low over many years and how much testing I needed. He is a down to earth doctor and I guess he will transfer his skills to Turkey and Deer hunting in his retirement. Great guy..will miss him
