Reviews
Excellent experience with Dr Mills. He explained everything very well and answered all our questions. He’s very kind and open.
My experience having a colonoscopy went well. Dr. Mills has been my Dr. for several years. He is always kind, professional, spends time with me before and after the colonoscopy. He explains things, asks me if I have any questions or concerns. The prep day is the challenge, having the colonoscopy is easy. I recommend Phoenix Endoscopy and Dr. Mills will be a Dr you will feel comfortable with.
Excellent communication both prior and following the procedures. Thorough explanation of the process and the findings and addressed follow-up plans. Takes the time to be thorough. The office staff is also knowledgeable and makes sure that waiting time is minimal
Superb experience. Doctor Mills went above and beyond to help a chronic condition.
Dr. Mills and his staff are fantastic. Every member of the team I saw was warm, professional, and compassionate. I would highly recommend this practice if you're in the market for a GI doctor!
What an amazing Dr. I've never been treated so patiently and caring in my life by any other physician as I have by Dr. Mills.
I see Dr. Mills for Crohns disease. He is the 8th doctor I've consulted for this condition. Dr. Mills has been the most insightful and the most compassionate physician I've consulted to date. His extensive background treating this condition jumps out from his conversation. He is quick to sort through a number of interrelated digestive system issues and get to a thoughtful conclusion. Most notable to me was that he was focused not only on the treatment but the time it will take to achieve relief - a refreshing change from the norm.
This was a follow up appointment with Dr. Mills on Zoom. He was receptive to my issues and gave me feedback.
Dr Mills always listens and the office staff is great at communicating
I find that talking to Dr. Mills very easy and informative. He gave me the confidence to go ahead with the procedures and I know it’s the right thing to do. As a doctor he is a great asset to the Phoenix area.
Dr Mills has been my Doctor for around 24 years and he is absolutely amazing. I owe my life to him.
The best GI doctor anywhere!

I can’t say enough amazing things about Dr. Mills and the entire office. His bedside manner is outstanding: He is the most caring, understanding and compassionate man. He’s very thorough and makes sure every base is covered.. I have received so much support from the office in helping me with paperwork and medication applications ….you name it and they are there to help. I am so blessed that I was referred here .
I've seen Dr. Mills for GI-related checks for over 20 years now. He and his staff are unfailingly professional, courteous, and helpful. I particularly appreciated the calls from his office before my procedures, reviewing the preparation steps.
Dr. Mills was exactly as I remembered him 24 years ago! Not only is he personable and pleasant but a top-notch specialist. In addition, I was accommodated by a TeleMed appointment which allowed me to avoid a four-hour drive to Phoenix. I was very satisfied!
Dr. Mills has been my physician for many years and most recently has been managing my feeding tube. He is excellent. Hands down the best GI doctor and a good human being. Thank you Dr. Mills and your entire staff. You are all amazing!
This was the first time with Dr. Michael Mills MD. I was impressed, to say the least. He gave me information on my situation that other doctors had never mentioned. So I left the office feeling hope. Thank you, Michael Mills and his staff.
Excellent from start to finish.
Dr Mills reviewed my health files & discussed the proper procedure & the prep to insure my health. Arizona Digestive Health & their Staff, built a Team of players that know how to execute their position. From the time of registration to the discharge, the entire staff seemed to be in a happy place. Which improves everyone's feelings. I give ADH ******
Dr Mills is a very esoteric doctor. He explains things well, and encourages a patient’s input in their treatment
Excellent, excellent doctor! Dr. Mills rocks! He is patient, kind, explains everything with both knowledge and care. By far, one of the best GI docs around. I feel very lucky to have come across his radar! The staff in the office and outpatient area also kind, compassionate and caring.
