William L. Mills, M.D.

Billy Mills, M.D., was born in a small South Carolina town and has lived in this great state all his life. He attended college at The Citadel, the military college of South Carolina, and obtained his medical degree and orthopedic surgery training from the University of South Carolina School of Medicine. He spent one year in San Antonio, Texas at the South Texas Spinal Clinic for a fellowship in spine surgery. 

Dr. Mills married his medical school classmate, and they have been together for 35 years. They have a daughter who is a talented artist who attended Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York, and decided that she is a New Yorker. Their son also attended The Citadel and is in medical school at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine as a rising third-year student. He has served the people of South Carolina by providing orthopedic care for 35 years.

His passions outside of work include rescuing shelter dogs, particularly Pit bulls, which have stolen his heart with their unconditional love. Dogs have always been a part of his life as loyal companions. Dr. Mills also enjoys beekeeping and realizes their importance in our environment. He is a motorcycle enthusiast and enjoys riding with his biker buddies. Dr. Mills also enjoys kayaking and boating on our beautiful rivers and waterways. Exercise is a big part of his life and he enjoys running with his dogs. He has no plans of retirement and looks forward to 10 to 15 more years of serving his patients.
