John P Milliken

My favorite doctor ... I love being put under! No seriously - he knows his trade and for that I am grateful ... and alive ... The support staff and nurses A++++++++ and billing? (Maynard G. Krebs ... "BILLING!!!") and even "Billing" is a pleasant experience. Just the nicest group altogether.

I am alive because of this amazing doctor. After 35 years of suffering from GI issues and many batteries of nasty GI tests, I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. I was in the hospital for almost a month and this gentle, caring, compassionate doctor was there every day to see me, even on the weekends! You can trust him with your life!!!

They say you are only as good as your support staff, which is true in this case. I tried for 5 days to make an appointment to see Dr. Milliken, never was able to speak to a live person, plus there was an outdated message which announced an office closure for a month earlier! After the 5 messages left and no call backs, I called another Doctor, I do not recommend this office.

Dr. Milliken was super! He was thorough and friendly. He took the time to discuss my issues and explain them well. I really like his staff too. Very helpful! I would definitely recommend him!

Dr Milliken is a wonderful, kind, respectful, experienced and thoughtful gastroenterologist in Traverse City. I have been to him a few times in the past 20 years and he is always the same…Great! He even saw me on a Saturday morning..

It's the first time I have had a pain free colonoscopy. Dr. Milliken was kind, professional and obviously a great physician.

Awesome ???? guy. Took care of my dad and eventually me. Excellent sense of humor ???? and a straight shooter, he won't sugar coat, he will tell you straight away what's going on with you. All around good guy and great doctor ????

Incompetent office worker Doctor seems to have anger issues In my lifetime I’ve never witnessed such Chaos in a so called medical office. In my opinion I DO NOT recommend this doctor

I have been seeing the Dr. for about 4 years. I told him the issues I was having and he kept passing it off as IBS..I got a second opinion and I have superior mesenteric artery syndrome. Now I have to see a vascular surgeon. My name is Angie Crabtree and I would not recommend

First time there I sat in a room for an hour, when the doctor came in he did not have my medical records. I was told they would call me in a few weeks when they got them. For 5 months I heard nothing and when I called got the run around, my primary doctor had to call them to get a response. Second time in( after the 5 months) I checked in then sat in the lobby for 45 minutes. First time there I sat in a room for an hour, when the doctor came in he did not have my medical records. I was told they would call me in a few weeks when they got them. For 5 months I heard nothing and when I called got the run around, … More

In my opinion this is the most incompetent doctors office I have ever been to. Every test was never ordered, delayed, or mis handled by this office. I do not recommend this doctor

Very dismissive and rude. Spent most of the time staring at a computer. Asked me questions and didn’t look at me while I answered. Instead, interrupted constantly and spoke over me when I did get a word in. He was dismissive of anything I was saying. It was as if he couldn’t get me out of the office fast enough. Idon’t cry often but did when I left his office.

Outstanding physician! Very caring with a great sense of humor! Highly recommend him.

Highly recommend him. Highly skilled. Very caring. He has a wonderfully witty personality. Immediately puts a patient at ease. The entire experience with him and the endo staff at Munson Hospital is a 10+. Outstanding care and service.

Dr. Milliken is amazing. He listens and is very reasonable about medications and treatments. Like any specialist in Traverse City, he is extremely busy. I just make appointments well in advance.

Was my GI specialist for years best care period. also fair price, and cares.

Great doctor. He is very professional, friendly, and listens to a patient. He completely explored every aspect of my problem. A rare combination—excellent!

I have never been treated so rudely by a doctor until this guy. He talked to me like I was stupid and he would not listen to anything I was trying to say. He acted like I had no clue how to even describe my own symptoms. Within five minutes of being in his office I left in tears, angry and frustrated. I will NEVER go back to him and never tell anyone else to either.

Dr. Milliken is very busy and stressed, but when you finally get to see him he is kind, patient, knowledgeable and an all around good doctor. His receptionist is rude, sarcastic and often doesn't give messages, and he seems to have gone through a lot of turnover in his staff. He doesn't use an assistant and calls back all patients personally, so that is a benefit, but it is hard to get a message to him.

I had asked my doctor if the meds she had me on were causing the reflux and she said no. When the reflux only got worse. I begged my doctor for a referral, it took a year for her to give in. When I saw JP Milligan, he told me to stop all reflex meds and eat all the things that gave me reflex! I did as instructed and was shocked at the end of all his testing that my doctor was causing my reflux by telling me to take the meds she prescribed at too high a dose for too long a time.
