Meet Dr. Scott Miller

Scott D. Miller, MD arrived in Atlanta in 1995 and quickly established himself in the medical community not only as a compassionate physician who believes patients should be informed and involved in their care, but also as a colleague ready to help other healthcare providers. Dr. Miller now brings more than 20 years of experience and expertise in laparoscopic and robotic surgery to the Wellstar Medical Group.

As the state’s first urologic laparoscopist, he soon became a known advocate for the reduced invasiveness, faster healing, and minimized complications inherent in the “Band-Aid surgery” approach. Whether teaching other surgeons from across town or around the world how to perform these techniques, or using the same methods to get patients out of the hospital and back on their feet sooner, Dr. Scott Miller has a consistent philosophy: focus on the special needs of laparoscopic urologic surgery patients and perfect his techniques in order to deliver the best possible care. He currently has one of the largest and most diverse experiences in laparoscopic and robotic urology in the Southeast.

DR. SCOTT MILLER HAS A PERSONAL HISTORY OF MEDICAL "FIRSTS":
  • Early 1990s – While in his residency (his program was an early adopter of advanced urologic laparoscopy techniques), Dr. Scott Miller lays the foundation to become one of the first urologists to perform these procedures on a large scale outside of an academic center.
  • 1995 – Performs the state of Georgia’s first laparoscopic kidney removal for kidney cancer.
  • 1996 – First in Georgia to perform a successful complex reconstruction of the urinary tract (pyeloplasty and ureteral re-implant) via laparoscopy.
  • 2000 – Completes Georgia’s first laparoscopic prostate removal without robotic assistance. Less than 1% of urologists have completed one successful prostate removal in this manner, let alone several hundred, as in the case of Dr. Scott Miller.
  • 2003 – Conducts Georgia’s first prostate removal using a robotic surgery system.
  • 2005 – Develops the S.P.E.C.I.A.L™ (sequential pre-emptive exposure of cavernosal innervation with atraumatic ligation) surgical technique for preserving nerve function after prostate removal, which improves post-operative erectile function. Not only does this technique protect the essential nerve bundles, but also the surrounding neural structures and supporting tissues prone to injury from the slightest manipulation.


He performs more than 250 various robotic surgery and laparoscopic procedures every year, and continues to provide education to other physicians through peer-reviewed journal and book chapter publications, hands-on teaching, and scientific presentations. Dr. Miller is also an accomplished musician and composer who has written a variety of songs (including a new one about the emotional impact of a cancer diagnosis).

Board certified by the American Board of Urology since 1997, Dr. Scott Miller is an active member of many professional societies including the American Urological Association, the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons, and the Endourological Society. He graduated from the Medical College of Georgia and completed his urologic residency at the University of Kentucky Medical Center.

Dr. Miller accepts most major insurance plans for laparoscopic, robotic, and other urologic services (he treats a variety of urologic conditions that often do not require surgery).

Wellstar North Fulton Medical Center to Open Comprehensive Cancer Center

Medical Center Breaks Ground on CyberKnife Construction

Wellstar Health System, one of Georgia’s largest and most integrated healthcare systems, announced yesterday it will open the Wellstar North Fulton Cancer Center in early 2023 on the Wellstar North Fulton Medical Center campus in Roswell, Georgia. The Center will also serve as one of only two locations in metro Atlanta featuring state-of-the-art CyberKnife® technology for radiation therapy.

Located at 4500 Hospital Blvd., the Cancer Center will offer comprehensive cancer services, including nationally-recognized, expert and experienced physicians; medical oncology; radiation oncology; imaging and many medical specialties all in one convenient location. Oncology surgery will continue to be performed at Wellstar North Fulton Hospital, on the same campus. 

“Wellstar North Fulton has been delivering expert, compassionate cancer care and support to North Metro Atlanta residents for many years,” said Jon-Paul Croom, president of Wellstar North Fulton Medical Center. “Our expansion of cancer services enables patients to receive the most advanced and robust offering of treatments available to beat cancer – close to home.”

Retired Principal Chooses Robotic Surgery to Treat Prostate Cancer

Steve Shelton, a retired middle school principal who lives in Villa Rica, is living life to his fullest years after having a robotic prostatectomy in December of 2014. The procedure was performed by Dr. Justin Watson at Wellstar Kennestone Hospital.

Robotic prostate cancer surgery has several key advantages over the more traditional approach. It shortens the time spent in a facility following a surgery. It also reduces surgery site blood loss, scarring and pain, and speeds up recovery. This method also has the potential to preserve nerves.

Steve remembered he was in his fourteenth year serving as the principal of Mount Paran Christian School Middle School when his urologist, Dr. Thomas Emerson, broke the news that he had cancer.

“I had to lean up against the wall for a minute,” Steve said. “Dr. Emerson drew out diagrams and presented us with all of our options. My wife, Brenda, and I made the decision right then that I was going to do the robotic surgery. I wanted to be decisive and take action and I wanted the cancer gone.”

Robotic prostate cancer surgery reduces surgery site blood loss, scarring and pain, and speeds up recovery.

“The robot allows us to see the prostate better and spare the nerves, which can preserve sexual function,” said Dr. Watson.
