What Members Are Saying

I consider myself blessed to have Dr. Mills as the provider caring for me. He listens and totally respects my opinion and the fact that I know my body better than anyone else. Given that, he always presents facts such as with lab and exam results. But instead of being quick to pop me on a pill or refer me out to someone else because he doesn’t have time for me, he always seeks my input and we work TOGETHER to come up with the best course of action to keep me thriving and well. We have been working together on a plan for almost 1 year now to decrease my LDL and the associated small particles that were continuing to rise each year. He suggested a Cardiac CT to look at my Calcium Score. I do have some calcification in my LAD (widow maker) artery. After getting these results, he brought me in and we had a discussion putting all of the pieces together and explaining the risks to me. Even though medication was involved in the course of action, it wasn’t the magic pill! We also discussed diet (limiting carbs to 100 net per day), increasing exercise, and increasing Omega supplements. I have been very diligent in following this plan and within the first 6 months, had a 79% improvement on the numbers in my labs. Having this type of collaboration with a doctor that truly listens and cares is empowering. I am a 69 year old Registered Nurse and take my health very seriously. I want to be the best I can be for many years to come. I retired about 1 1/2 years ago and continue my passion for Nursing through a Volunteer position providing care to the homeless and uninsured. I travel occasionally with my husband which allows me to enjoy the mountains and ocean! I am very active and feel fantastic!!! Dr. Mills is very knowledgeable, kind and a gentle spirit. He studies and stays well-informed on current trends, changes and advances in medicine. He shares this knowledge with his patients which, in my opinion, gives one a sense of being part of your own Care Team. Instead of being bounced around in a system where you never really get answers or understand what is going on in your body, you are given the unique opportunity to be involved in the healing process and making a difference in the course of your own lifespan. I truly feel that he has my health and well-being high on his list in caring for me. I recommend him and am proud to name him as my Provider of Choice. Thank you Dr. Mills😊

Meet R. Scott Mills, MD

Because I get to know each patient personally, we develop a strong partnership for the betterment of your health. My practice is not just about being reactive when you are sick; it is also about being proactive to prevent illness. We accomplish this by addressing all of your concerns at your visit and spending time during your wellness exam to establish health goals for the coming year. I not only want you to feel better when you are sick, I want you to live better the rest of your life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.

Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.

MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.

I had only signed up as Dr. Mill's patient about six months earlier. when on March 17, 2013, we found ourselves 8500 miles distant on the coast of the Indian Ocean in South Africa, scheduled to fly within hours into the bush (Kruger National Park) where we would be cut off from any easy communication with the outside world for 4 days.
