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.

From the moment this Doctor walked into the examination room. He had an extremely poor attitude and he was very aggressive in his demeanor. Upon examination of my testicle, he calls me a great deal of unwarranted pain in my testicle upon examination. I don't trust this Doctor, I don't like this Doctor, and I would not recommend this Doctor to any.one seeking a compassionate and gentle Doctor. His rudeness alone was over the top and this was the first time I had met Doctor Miller. I absolutely do not recommend him to anyone.

Inflated Ego makes for a bad physician. Argues correct points. Condescending. Unhelpful. Rude. Narcissistic. Did not listen. Dismissed patient’s condition and pain. His immature behavior makes it difficult to discern if he’s has any expertise in his specialty.

He performed the surgery so poorly, I may have to have it redone. He was condescending, had poor bedside manner, and used sarcasm in a way that was uncomfortable.

Google how a Vasectomy is carried out before reading. One incision, 20 mins and 2 day recovery. He was very rude, sarcastic, insensitive and seemed irritated when I asked questions. During procedure he was extremely rough, showed no empathy, despite me being very nervous. 2 incisions, tugging, burning, stitches, and about 40 mins. No post op care instructions AT ALL. 6 days later, excruciating pain in pelvis/back of testis. Obviously infected but wldnt see me until next day despite condition.

He is somewhat helpful but these other reviews are perfectly accurate in describing how uncomfortable it is being a patient of his, he hasn't got a clue about treating patients carefully and what the Hippocratic oath is, very condescending and almost pretended like my problems weren't even there.

The doctor has no empathy towards his patients. See patients as nuance rather than people asking for help. Multiple appointments have been made with him, and usually comes 20 minutes late to the scheduled time and one time an hour.

Howard Miller is able to give a reasonable diagnosis in the most condescending, uncomfortable fashion possible. He attempts to lighten the mood of a man touching your penis with sarcasm and jokes, which I believe is to compensate for his own discomfort and makes for a truly uncomfortable experience. To make things worse, he clearly considers himself above all patients, which is clear in his mocking tone. It really sets the stage for a truly bad experience.
