NARRATIVE:
Dr. Miller received his Bachelor of Science in English from the University of Michigan, followed by his Medical Doctorate from Michigan State University College of Human Medicine. During his internship year at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas, he was awarded the Army Achievement Medal for Most Academic Intern. He then served as the Division Support Command Surgeon for the Army's Experimental Warfighting Division: Force XXI- 4th Infantry Division, Fort Hood, Texas. While there, he earned the Expert Field Medical Badge, attended Airborne School, and was awarded the Army Commendation Medal for ensuring the proper redesign of the Division's health support. Dr. Miller went on to finish as Honor Graduate from the Army's Primary Flight Surgeon Course. Following flight training, he became the Squadron Surgeon for the 1st Squadron 10th Air Cavalry Regiment, Fort Hood, Texas. This is where he earned his second Army Commendation Medal for participation in a Downed Aircraft Recovery Team supporting an anti-drug joint task force. Before completing his tour as Squadron Surgeon, Dr. miller was one of two out of over 1500 reviewed Captains in the Army Medical Corp to be selected for promotion two years "below-the-zone" (ahead of peers) in 1998. Dr. Miller was then selected for the highly competative Dermatology Residency at Brooke Army Medical Center.While in training, he became the first resident in their history to be cited in a major dermatology textbook while still a resident (Andrew's Dermatology 19th edition), their first resident to complete a bench research project while still a resident (an animal study exploring brown recluse spider envenomation treatments), and the only dermatologist on active duty to be published in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine. He also completed over 10 other publications and presentations, including multiple presentations to the annual national American Academy of Dermatology meetings. Upon completion of his Dermatology training and obtaining his Board Certification and Diplomat status, Dr. Miller was immediately appointed to a national committee for the American Academy of Dermatology, and as a Fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology. His first assignment out of training was as Chief of Dermatology at Moncrief Army Community Hospital. During his tenure as Chief, he was called upon to support Operation Iraqi Freedom as a flight surgeon on the front lines with the 101st Airborne Division's 3rd Brigade Combat Team. Dr. Miller provided life-saving trauma stablilization to not only American and Iraqi soldiers, but also placed himself at great risk, entering unsecured Iraqi communities to treat injured civilians. Dr. Miller's legacy as a flight surgeon is recorded in the history books of the 101st Airborne as having completed the longest aeromedical evacuation in the history of the 101st, overflying over 420 kilometers of hostile enemy territory while providing in-flight life saving care to an American soldier. Upon return from Iraq, Dr. Miller recieved his honorable discharge from the U.S. Army. After serving the coastal communities of South Carolina as a partner in Waccamaw Dermatology and Plastic Surgery for three years, he is now excited to return to Columbia, and share his skills with Carolinas Dermatology.
