I saw Dr Miller who was my surgeon for my cancer operation. As usual Dr Miller was fantastic as he has been foe this entire procedure. He makes you feel so comfortable during our session, about next steps and and addresses all my questions. I feel so lucky to have him as my doctor / surgeon through these cancer recovery times. Of all the doctors I have, he is the best.
