I have been seeing Dr. Michael Mills for nearly 15 years, and there is no doubt in my mind that he is the best gastroenterologist in the region. Since my dad had colon cancer later in life, I have a heightened aware of the need to be checked out periodically. Every time Dr. Mills conducts my colonoscopies or endoscopies, he is very aware of my medical history. Not only does he diagnose, but he provides sound advice about lifestyle choices to improve my quality of life. With his talented staff, RNs, and medical assistants, you cannot go wrong entrusting Dr. Mills with any digestive issues you may have. He truly is the best!
This is my 4th trip to Phoenix Endoscopy. Grateful for my PCP, Dr. William Redenius, for sending me to Phoenix Endo for my colonoscopies. Dr. Nolan had done the three previous outpatient surgeries and twice had found polyps which were benign. On my 4th visit Dr. Tharalson performed the surgery and found a polyp necessitating my 5th visit, God willing, to Phoenix Endo in 2029. Dr. Tharalson's bedside manner was perfect and since I was sedated for the surgery I don't have much more feedback. The staff, nurses & admin, were very curteous and understanding (thank you for being kind to me when I came out of the sedation). My wife was given all the results of the surgery and was also given an explanation of the results of the surgery. We were also given a time frame for when we would find out if the polyp was benign or malignant. The prep for a colonoscopy is one of my least favorite things to do but if it gives me the chance to enjoy a few more years of life I'll take it.
Always a great team, Dr Randolph is a great Doctor to ensure your health is maintained
