Thankful for Dr. Joy Cox and her partner Dr. Jennifer Tatalovich and their confidence in a complex surgery at the center of my core. Dr. Cox was the "4th opinion" amongst the best in Nashville. She offered the facts: a "10-to-20% failure rate" in recovery --- more promising than all others "40% failure rate". Recovering was intense... ... DANCING 9 WEEKS LATER on Good Friday and feeling extremely blessed by their confident and skilled hands!!!!

I am a new patient and I was looking up Dr Cox information and she seemed wonderful. I checked the insurance she accepted to make sure that mine was accepted and it clearly says she accepts Amerigroup. I called to make my first appointment and the first thing they asked me was to be put on hold I waited for 11 min and I hung up and called again and someone was available to help me. So I started giving her my information and when I got to the insurance information the woman hesitated saying she does not think they take that insurance. and she said hold on and she came back saying no they did not. so it just seemed to me things were not communicated very well and false information was given out.
