This was my last appointment after my spine surgeries. Dr Cox is the best orthopedic surgeon you could ever ask for when you're back needs help. He's compassionate very knowledgeable and willing to do anything to help you. I'm glad I didn't go anywhere else or settle for anyone less. I am grateful that God put him in my path.

Went to see Dr Cox for the first time and was very impressed with how easy it was to get an appointment and how nice everyone there was including Dr Cox !! I have had back problems for many years and suffered needlessly …Dr Cox took me seriously and almost immediately knew what was going on and what I needed to do !! I just wished I would have gone to see him sooner !! ?? Lisa McGuffee

The best experience I have ever had with any doctor. Easy to get my appointment, diagnosed the problem, and had surgery all within a week. Not to mention through a holiday weekend!! I would highly recommend Dr. Cox for any orthopedic needs, especially spine, which was my issue. All staff very friendly and helpful, too! Even the ones behind the scenes, like insurance verification.

Dr. Cox was SUPERB! He was very knowledgeable and informative with my issue. He didn’t take the “let’s patch him up like we do everyone else and send him on his way” approach like some doctors do. He took all the the proper procedures while investigating and explaining to me what my issue was and why it was caused. He had a very strategic approach that not only allowed me to fully trust him, but also feel as if I was in good hands while under his care. 10 out of 10 stars! Excellent job!

I felt I had more than one problem when I made the appointment, however my original problem was explained and a solution was offered . But I was still doubtful so I explained and showed them and lo and behold a second diagnose and solution was received ! I felt good when I left and knew so much more than when I went in !! I would highly recommend Dr Cox and his NP to everyone !
