Roger Millhouse, D.O.

Greetings I am Dr. Millhouse. A little bit about myself. Life started in an orphanage for me. I was adopted into a wonderful family at the age of 5. My dad died at a young age so I was raised by my mother with help from her parents, and grew up most of my life in Idaho. Before Idaho I had lived some of the time in Pennslyvania.  At 19 I joined the Navy, deployed a couple times, met my first wife during that time. Sadly she passed away from a pulmonary embolism while I was on my second deployment. I left the navy with an honorable discharge to pursue medicine hoping I could make a difference. I completed my undergraduate work at Lewis Clark state College in Lewiston, Idaho. It was during this time I was able to find love again, get remarried. We have 3 beautiful children. I was accepted to medical school in Arizona at AT STILL School of Osteopathic Medicine completing that in 2019, and came to Kirksville MO for my Family Medicine Residency, completing that in June of 2024. Rural communities are my preference as I prefer the slower, more peaceful setting of life rather than the hustle and bustle of bigger cities which I have lived in. My top priority is my family.  My interests include family medicine, hospice/palliative medicine, medical care for veterans as I am a veteran myself, as well as both hospital and clinical medicine.  My hobbies include spending quality time with good friends, listening to music, playing piano, dancing, writing stories, reading, watching new movies in the theater, traveling,  spending time by the water such as a lake or a river, and enjoying sunsets and sunrises.  I look forward to connecting with this community and connecting my family to this community. I hope to build bridges, collaborate with people to improve their physical and mental health, partnering  withthem to provide the best care I can give as we share this in these special moments during this beautiful journey we call life.
