Angel B. Millora M.D.

Loudonville, NY- Angel B. Millora, M.D., was born on May 31, 1938, in Manila, Philippines to Borromeo and Salud Bueno Millora, along with siblings Consolacion Millora Labrador, Antonieta Millora Padua, Romeo Millora, Adolfo Millora, Virginia Millora Abello, and Borromeo Millora, Jr. Angel received his medical degree from the University of the Philippines in 1963. He immigrated with his wife, Anita S. Lansang-Millora, M.D., to Albany, New York in 1965 and became a U.S. citizen in 1982. On October 22, 2024, at the age of 86, Angel joined his soulmate Anita, who predeceased him on December 30, 2011. Angel was a pioneer in the field of nephrology as a mentee of Dr. John Kiley. He served as chief of nephrology at St. Peter’s Hospital (1992-1998) and held medical directorships of Albany Dialysis Corporation and Capital District Dialysis Center. His contributions to the field were recognized in 1997 when he was awarded Physician of the Year by the National Kidney Foundation. During his early days in nephrology, Angel amazingly managed to find another Dr. Milora (single “l”) practicing nephrology in the Capital District. Together, they founded the Capital District Renal Physicians in 1974. He later founded the Capital District Metro Medical Associates, P.C. and the Family Health Care Center in Slingerlands. From 1965 to 2018, Angel practiced medicine at St. Peter’s Hospital, Ellis Hospital, Memorial Hospital, Albany Medical Center, Child’s Hospital, Guilderland Center Nursing Home, Albany County Residential Health Care Facility, and Ann Lee Nursing Home. He was passionate about his work as a healthcare provider and continually demanded excellence in care for his patients. He was unapologetic in this regard because he felt it was his responsibility as a physician and human being. In addition to his work as a practitioner, Angel educated future generations of medical professionals through a multitude of academic appointments, beginning as an instructor at the University of the Philippines College of Medicine through his days as an Associate Professor in the Division of Renal Diseases at Albany Medical College. Angel and Anita were loving parents to four daughters and their partners, Salina "Gigi" (Randall Pratt), Rosanna "Rosette" (Bryan W. Brown), Clarinda "Rena" (Kenneth Robin), and Melissa "Lisa" (Scott Barbour). Angel was also blessed to be grandfather or “Lolo” to Quentin and Alexandra "Sasha" Millora-Brown; Jaelin, Alexei "Alex," and Annika Robin; and Jasmine “Jazzy” Millora Barbour. He was honored to be chosen as godfather to dozens of children. Angel instilled in his family a shared love for numerous hobbies including gardening, basketball, golf, bowling, fishing, swimming, tennis, and tossing out math problems at the dinner table. He treasured family retreats to Sandbridge Beach, Virginia, which reminded him of his childhood living in Subic, Zambales. Angel’s favorite activity in recent years was experimenting in the kitchen and feeding family and friends his “Boy Scout concoctions.” Angel was steadfast in his loyalty and dependability throughout his life. He believed that if one was in a position to help, then one should. His generosity was unlimited, driven by a genuine desire to do good in the world and make it a better place for others. Along with his wife Anita, his love and support for his family was unwavering. Together, they will forever be in the hearts and souls of their children and grandchildren. Relatives and friends are invited to visit with Angel’s family Saturday, November 9, 2024 8:30 am to 10:30 am at St. Pius X Church, Loudonville, NY. His Funeral Mass will follow at 10:30 am.
