Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense.

With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t.
