Michael Miller

Dr. Miller is very dry and blunt with his patients but honestly, at that point in our fertility journey, that’s what I wanted and needed. He knows exactly what he is doing and is great at his job. I fully trust him and am hoping he can help us conceive another baby very soon.

To trust Dr. Miller.

At first I had a large cyst so he had me do a round of birth control to clear that up. Then we tried 100mg of clomid and dexamethasone but no follicles were ready. We immediately jumped in to 150mg of clomid and dexamethasone and I had 2 follicles ready, one on each ovary. We used an ovulation trigger shot and timed intercourse and it worked! We tried the same thing this fall to try to conceive a second baby but it didn’t work. I spoke with Dr. Miller and we agreed that I would take some time off to lose weight and try again in a few months when I am ready.

With our first most of the costs were covered under insurance. But this fall when we tried for a second we found out that our new insurance did not cover fertility. We had to pay out of pocket for several rounds of meds, appointments, and ultrasounds. But starting January 2019 our insurance is supposed to have better fertility coverage which we are thankful for.

I have loved everything about Dr. Miller. Make sure and ask any questions you may have. He will take the time to talk to you about them and help explain what to expect or not to expect with every cycle. He is all nice and professional during exams.

Ask questions! If you don’t like the plan he has set for you or feel you should try another treatment be open and honest with him. He will listen and help you make the right decisions about your fertility treatments.

When I was referred to Dr. Miller by a friend I had no idea where to start and what was expected. I thought I may have endometriosis but no other doctors would listen. Dr. Miller listened. Did and ultrasound the same day and I had surgery the following week. After healing from the surgery we started our fertility plans. We first started with the lowest dose of Clomid. That dose didn’t work for me so the next month we tried a higher dose. After a few months of finding which dose worked best we finally had a successful ovulation with two healthy size eggs. After a few months of Clomid I stopped ovulating on my own so we added a trigger shot with the Clomid to help ovulate. Fertility treatments can be time consuming and are also time sensitive. For me Dr. Miller wanted me in office on cycle day 3-5 for an ultrasound to check my ovaries and uterine lining. If everything checked out I would start 5 days of Clomid. Come back on cycle day 14 for another ultrasound to check for health eggs. Then a trigger shot. Every few rounds he would have me come back for blood work to check hormone levels. And repeat if no pregnancy occurred.

Luckily we have good health insurance coverage. Our coverage pays for each visit, any procedures, or surgeries needed. We are out of pocket only for medicines needed.

I heard many great things from a friend and read many reviews before I made an appointment with Dr. Miller. He is a very kind and knowledgeable doctor. There were times in our experience where I felt educated on our treatment and there were times when I felt as if each appointment was rushed.

While I mostly had a pleasant experience, it was very in-and-out. Which is sometimes convenient, especially for someone like me who works full-time and was often running to the clinic on my lunch break or in between meetings. However, I often felt like I was being pushed out too quickly to ask any questions in the midst of a whirlwind of emotions. Be prepared and write your questions down and don't expect a very long visit.

My first visit with Dr. Miller was basically a consultation. He went over my paperwork with me and put together somewhat of a plan. We set up an appointment to do labs on a certain day of my cycle. After many labs, Dr. Miller wanted me to have an HSG ran. Unfortunately my insurance wouldn't cover that procedure and we decided to forego the HSG test and try Clomid since we were on the right day of my cycle to start it. I was also put on Estrodial to thicken my uterine lining. I came back basically every other day for ultrasounds to check my follicle progression. The Estrodial did it's job, however, this cycle was a no because my follicle didn't grow large enough. Dr. Miller said we would begin Clomid at a higher dose and a day earlier the next cycle and see the results this would bring us.

Unfortunately, my insurance denied all of my treatment. We paid around $100 each visit throughout one cycle of treatments, which was probably around 10-12 visits if I remember correctly. Then received a bill of ~$1200. So I would say it was around $2500. This was just for our first cycle trying the Clomid approach.

Dr. Miller is very knowledgeable doctor and has been in his career many years. He is a kind man and explains the process well. At times, I do feel rushed and no time for questions I may have, he is busy. He performs surgeries well also!

Be sure to get all of your questions in, his practice is busy but they are great to deal with!

Ive only finished one cycle of Letrozole with Dr. Miller. He performed surgery for endometriosis and a slight septum uterus in December 2018, went good! Im am now on second month on letrozole with timed intercourse. We want to try an IUI in the future if it doesn't work naturally.

He was amazing. He listened, he cared, and always made sure it was all affordable. I felt like I was treated so amazing every time I stepped into his office for an appointment. I always understood what was happening or what would happen when I left the office. I would recommend him a hundred times over to anyone who asks.

Don’t go in expecting not to be listened too: he listens.

We went and had an HSG before starting any treatment; then we did 6 rounds of clomid and 3 rounds of letrozole with timed intercourse with one trigger shot. We stair stepped after each dose when we weren’t getting the results we wanted. It ended with a trigger shot but ultimately didn’t work and we got a negative pregnancy test.

I can’t remember but prices weren’t too bad.
