Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Miller removed 2 stents, replaced three arteries with a vein from my leg. The first day was not the best as they had me up and walking the afternoon of the surgery. He had three chest drains tubes in and when he took them out, I told him, that he was a better surgeon than the three other doctors that I had for my 4 back surgeries. Kind, gentle, tells you like it is and kept checking on me for a year. To me, that is what being a doctor with compassion is. If I need him again,

Do not use Dr. Miller! He performed bypass surgery on my dad's legs. Several months later, one of the bypasses failed and we ended up at UAMS in Little Rock. The surgeons there had to re-do the bypass and were appalled by the job Dr. Miller had done. We found out that he did not fully inform us about the procedure and he took shortcuts. Now my dad may ultimately lose his leg. Dr. Miller was arrogant, impatient, and treated us like we were beneath him. I would not trust him! Go to UAMS!
