Dr. Lux has been our family physician for over ten years. He still provides the same thorough and competent care, listens attentively and provides sound conservative medical advice that he did ten years ago.

My father has been a Patient for 6 yrs and recently had a sudden stroke. Dr. Lux did NOT call to check on him - not once. What kind of Doctor does this? This is NOT the kind of Doctor - I want in our family.

Dr. Lux is an amazing Doctor! My family member has seen him for 17 years and I've seen him for 4 years. He is the best doctor I have ever met. Kind man with no ego and is really in medicine to help his patients not make a big paycheck. He will do anything and everything helpful to get to the bottom of whatever your problem is. I was having many health issues at the young age of 24 that were unexplained. Dr. Lux worked hard and did everything in his power to help me . He was willing to say he doesn't know instead of lying that he does and when I found a diagnosis he read up on it just so he could be helpful to me even though I'm his only patient with this disease. I refuse to go anywhere else if at all possible. Not a better a better Doctor in the Houston area. His office staff is also great especially his office manager/ Scheduler.

Dr Lux was very caring and informative with us. What my husband and I love about him is He doesnt prescribe us medicines unless we really need it unlike other doctors and when we pay our co pay the first time, we dont have to pay another co pay just to get the results from the first one. God's chose Doctor. Thanks
