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 and his team did a terrific job helping me through my surgery and making sure that they were attentive to my concerns. I would suggest him to anyone that I know.

I had a very favorable experience with the staff as well as Dr. Miller. The nurse was friendly and professional. Dr. Miller was gentle and kind and took care of my problem in the office at the time of my initial visit. I appreciated not having to wait in order to have my problem resolved. If I need to have the type of care Dr. Miller provides, I wouldn't hesitate to return to his office.

Dr. Miller and Team - Excellent Care
I was an emergency work in after seeing my GI physician. I had been misdiagnosed earlier in the week, and my GI doctor and Dr. Miller interceded. Dr. Miller promptly identified my illness and scheduled me for a procedure the next day. The staff was very attentive, and Dr. Miller was thorough in explaining my condition, what the procedure would entail, and what i should expect in the recovery process. Follow up appointments were thorough.

Great experience
Dr. Miller was very pleasant, knowledgeable and professional. He didn't rush me through. He took time to answer my questions. The rest of the staff was also very kind and they explained everything that would happen so I could be calm, knowing what to expect.

I was roughly two years short of my own personal apocalypse in form of a large, pre-cancerous, large, flat polyp on my colon. In December 2021, Colon & Rectal Specialists brought me back from the brink and now I’m ready to dance a jig. Eternally grateful to CRS and to Dr. Peter Miller.

After my daughter had appointments with two other Gastroenterologist, Dr. Miller was able to diagnose her problem and start corrective measures in the exam room. My daughter had been in severe pain for over two months and the action Dr. Miller took in his office greatly relieved her pain and put her on the road to recovery. I highly recommend Dr. Miller.

Dr. Miller is outstanding. He helped relieve a lot of my anxiety regarding the surgery. Everything went better than planned. I was released a day earlier than we thought and was walking my dog that evening. Surgery was 4 weeks ago and I have been back to normal since. I cannot say enough about this talented young doctor!

Dr. Miller was courteous and professional. From the very beginning, he took time to put me at ease regarding my health condition. He provided a thorough explanation after exam, and explained cure/corrective measures. Confident in his exam findings, I proceed to schedule surgery. Surgery and recovery went very well. I could not have asked for better care and followup. Highly recommend Dr. Miller and his staff nurse Jenn. Five stars ******

Dr. Miller is one of the kindest and thoughtful doctors I know. I have been having problems with my tummy and intestines since June 2017 and he has been right there with me all the way. He has even talked with me after hours on the phone. His concern for me lets me know I am in good hands and I would highly recommend him to everyone I know. Thank you Dr Miller from the bottom of my heart for you care and thoughtfulness.

Dr. Miller was awesome! I can't say enough about how appreciative I am for his help. I was in extreme pain and had to have emergency surgery. He took the time to explain everything to me, and he was very professional and kind. Even though I was in agony, I felt comforted and confident knowing he would be taking care of me. His whole staff, from the front desk to his friendly nurses, made my experience with CRS extremely positive. I highly recommend them.
