About Douglas Mills, D.O.
Why did you choose to specialize in Gastroenterology?
Gastrointestinal symptoms can be some of the most personal complaints patients can have. While two patients may have the same diagnosis, the symptoms may affect each person’s life very differently. This specialty allows me to develop a relationship with each patient and to create a treatment plan that is specific for that person.
Do you have a specialty of interest within GI?
I enjoy treating a wide variety of conditions, including inflammatory bowel disease, liver disorders, disorders of the stomach, and functional bowel disease. I am particularly interested in quality in endoscopy and colorectal cancer screening, because as our quality improves, so do our patient outcomes.
Where did you study?
After high school in Fort Worth, I went to Washington University in St. Louis, where I majored in history. I then went to medical school at the Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine, Midwestern University, and remained in the Chicago area for my training. I completed my residency, followed by my Gastroenterology Fellowship at Advocate Lutheran General Hospital, in Park Ridge, IL.
What certifications do you hold?
Board Certified in Internal Medicine and Gastroenterology
What do you and your family enjoy doing in your spare time?
I enjoy going to the zoo and museums with my wife and two children. We love traveling around the country. My kids help me garden, and we especially like growing tomatoes.
Do you have any special honors or recognition in your medical career that you would like to share?
I have published research related to quality in endoscopy. During my last year in residency, I was awarded the senior resident teaching award by my peers.

Reviews
He is very good at what he does and office is ran flawlessly.
I think Dr Mills is great. First time to meet and I found myself feeling very comfortable immediately. I will continue using him as my GI specialist and I am confident that I will receive the best care!
Dr Mills was a very kind and attentive doctor. I went to see him thinking that I had a gallbladder problem. He ordered an ultrasound to make sure that everything was okay including my kidney, liver etc. I received a call from the office stating that it was an issue with my right kidney not my gallbladder. He suggested to his staff to contact my primary to refer me to a kidney specialist and order a more in-depth test. Went through the process of seeing a kidney doctor but even the kidney doctor said that Dr Mills could have ordered the test and skipped seeing the kidney doctor until the other test results came back. I will definitely keep Dr Mills in mind for any gastro intestinal issues, if any, in the future.
I highly recommend Douglas Mills. If it wasn't for him, I would have a carcinoid tumor still growing in me... he found it and recommended surgery. He took the time (over the weekend) to call me and talk to me about my options. He goes beyond for his patients. He listens and does what it takes. Thank you, Dr Mills!
Excellent and very informative
