Dr.Millay A+++++++++
I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Millay. We know his calendar is crazy but it never felt that way when he was providing care. His assessment and facilitation of the follow up I needed with Neurology are things I will forever be grateful for. He was personable, kind, and his expertise was extremely evident.
Dr. Millay is a gem!
I am very fortunate to have Dr. Millay as my opthamologist.
Dr Millay has always been concerned with my vision and has provided excellent care to me since my first visit to him in 2011
Amazing! Friendly, knowledge, kind, professional. The best experience I have had with a provider at uvm so far.
Good
The best physician I have ever had, definitely the best ophthalmologist! Extremely knowledgeable, excellent skill set, expertly described the condition of my retinas and what to watch out for, a very genuine, kind, and concerned care provider who made me feel better about my eyes more than almost any other eye doctor I have had in the past and, also a true gentleman!
This was my first ever visit to this ophthalmologist. I trusted him and his diagnosis but I would have appreciated more words in English rather than medical-ese.
Dr. Millay is outstanding. Truly one of the best medical doctors I have ever met. He is careful and thorough. Dr. Millay thoughtfully explains what he observed doing eye exam for macular degeneration. I can honestly say that Dr. Millay is a model for patient care. He should be teaching other doctors in the practice of patient care. UVM is truly fortunate to have someone so special as Dr. Millay. PLEASE, convey my deepest appreciation to Dr. Millay
As I commented earlier, Dr. Millay is the best thing about the medical center. He exceeds high expectations every time.
Good
Dr. Millay is always excellent. He communicates well. Listens to the patient.
Dr. Millay answered all my questions regarding ongoing care. Even though it was my decision to change doctors, I was pleased to be reassured that if Dr. Millay had any concerns regarding the progression of my disease, he would not hesitate to consult my doctor in Boston.
I had a great experience in my office visit. Dr. Millay did not have very good news for me, but he didn't attempt to hide anything from me, and I greatly appreciate that. At least I know what I am dealing with, and It helps me to think about my options and make an informed decision. Thank you, Dr. Millay!
I'm very glad to have this caring doctor to whom I entrust my vision.
On the one hand, after looking at the visit notes, there is clearly a lot of in-depth information Dr. Millay is gathering and considering that he does not communicate at the office visit. On the other hand, he is careful to clearly communicate the big picture very clearly, so his assessment and cautions/things to look for stick in your mind.
Dr. Millay did not talk to me after he was finished with his exam. His assistant/nurse followed up and answered my questions at the end of my visit. Those answers were helpful.
All staff, assistants, nurses and Dr. Millay were great. Helpful and informative.
Excellent!
