Personal History: Dr Millar was born and raised in Cullman Alabama. There he attended elementary and middle school. In the 8th grade, he won the Alabama State Science Fair and a scholarship to Georgia Military Academy in Atlanta Georgia. GMA changed its name and he graduated college prep school from Woodward Academy. Durring, Dr Millar's last two years at Woodward Academy, he was dual enrolled at Ga Institute of Technology (Ga Tech). He graduated from Elkins Instiute, at that time part of Georgia Tech, where he studied Electrical Engineering. After receiving his FCC 1st Class Radio/TV Engineers' license, he joined the family business as Chief Engineer over radio and TV stations. As he went into company management, he realizing he needed more business training. So, he went back to school and finished his Bachelors with a concentration in Business and Accounting at Barry University in Miami. At Barry, he was on the Dean's list all semesters attended. After graduation, he rejoined the family business, a conglomerate, and at that time the seventh largest publicaly traded broadcasting company in America. "Airmedia, Inc." had divisions in radio; TV; printing & publishing; banking; mortgage lending; and real estate offices.
After an accident, Dr Millar had back surgery. That event changed his life. A year later he had a second back surgery. He stated that "he was in constant pain 24 hours a day every day". Trying to get out of pain, Dr Millar studied bio-mechanical trauma and kinesiology, "that helped some." His brother suggested Chiropractic; but, Dr. Millar remembers saying, "I need a real doctor, not a Chiropractor. 'I have real problems.' 'I've had back surgery and NO Chiropractor is going to crack my back.'" Dr Millar expressed that 30 years ago Chiropractors weren't like today. He further stated "At the time, he was scared of Chiropractors. He really didn't personally know what they did or didn't do. He was just scared of the unknown". He went on to say, "they were talking about another surgery at the time and my medical doctor said "No WAY" to Chiropractic". Dr Millar stated, "I got to the point that I had no other options. I had tried every thing else and was still in pain. "Medicine had failed me". I had nothing else to loose, so I tried Chiropractic". "Within six weeks on Chiropractic my pain had dropped 50%. I was able to start getting off some of the pain meds. I had been in pain every day for the past 2 years and what finally got me out of pain was Chiropractic." For this reason, Dr Millar shared that he became passionate about sharing Chiropractic with others.
"I told my family that I was going to Chiropractic School, they laughed. They told me I was nearly 40 and too old. Dr Millar moved to Atlanta and started over again in college taking courses at two colleges to get the science courses he needed to get into Chiropractic school. He then attended Life University, College of Chiropractic where he was President of his Class, and President of the Student Body and many times on the Deans list graduating with honors. He then studied extremity adjusting (hips, knees, ankles, feet, shoulders, elbows, wrist. hands, TMJ and ribs) and earned his CCEP. He has passed all four parts of the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners as well as the Alabama State Board of Chiropractic Examination. He is further Certified in Extremity (Non Spinal) manipulations. He has completed additional post graduate study in Neurology, Orthopedics, Physiological Therapeutics, Auto Accidents, Trauma, and Non Surgical Disc Treatments (Decompression Traction) for Bulging and Herniated Disc problems.
Dr. Millar stated that "after graduation, I wasn't sure how fast my clinic would take off and I had a child to feed. So for several years, as a professor, Dr Millar taught Anatomy and Physiology at several local colleges. He continued to take post graduate training in Neurology and Orthopedics. Dr. Millar in 2001 was approached by WAAY TV Channel 31 the ABC affiliate in Huntsville about developing a 30 minute live medical callin talk show. The Show "MedLine" was born in 2002 with medical doctors and chiropractors openly discussing their similarities and differences in treating various conditions. The show quickly gained a loyal following and was the top medical talk show in Alabama with thousands watching each week. In 2005 with the sale of the station, the show's name was changed to MEDCALL. Dr. Millar was then asked to join the WAAY TV morning news team for medical news and comment. In 2005 through 2007 he did morning medical news and the "Medical Minute" every Tuesday and Thursday morning. In 2007 again with the sale of the station, he was asked to develop a mid day call in program called BACKTALK. The BACKTALK show is seen every Tuesday at 11:30am on WAAY TV. After 9 years, Dr Millar left MEDCALL in late 2010 to pursue other TV projects.
In 2003 Dr Millar opened the Millar MultiMedical and Millar Disc Treatment Center and was asked to work closely with UAB Dept of Neurosurgery, Dr Tom Spurlock helping to develop the UAB Dept of Neurosurgery Chiropractic Care Team. The idea was that to further train Chiropractors to integrate with Medical Doctors and specifically Neurosurgeons to provide conservative care to patients before surgery and rehabilitative care post surgery.
