“I felt the call to become a doctor since I was a boy,” said Miller. “I was about 7 and caught me a frog and cut him open with my pocket knife. I knew right then and there that I wanted to be a doctor when I growed up.”

Miller went on to recount how he spent his days after that watching TV shows about “doctor stuff.” He also took every chance he could to catch small live animals and dissect them, so that he could further pursue his “calling.” Finally, at the tender age of only 13 he performed his first surgery.

“They found out my uncle Billy had a tumor in his neck. He was going to go to one of them big fancy hospitals where the doctors think they all smart and stuff, but I told him I would do the surgery for free. We knocked him out with a ball-pin hammer and I used my trusty exacto knife. Uncle Billy didn’t quite make it that day, but he was too far gone anyway.”

Now at the age of 41, Miller operates a small clinic in Hoover where he says he’s qualified to perform any medical procedure even though he’s never been to med school.

“I don’t need no medical board or a bunch of other smarty pants doctors telling me what to do and think. I read my medical journals every day. I’ve even memorized entire chapters. I can do any surgery or procedure. Brain surgery, spinal surgery, amputations, you name it. I don’t need no education. This is a calling.”

We tried to reach some of Dr. Miller’s patients both current and past for comment, but none could be located.
