I chose to specialize in Colorectal surgery because I recognized that the application of skill, effort, and technology could significantly impact patient well-being, whether it be a life-threatening problem such as colon cancer, or a quality of life threatening problem such as hemorrhoids.

I saw Dr. Cox on a surgery consult. He is extremely detailed. He had already spoke to my GI doctor and had reviewed my records (and I have very lengthy records!). He was extremely pleasant and professional. He discussed all options with me and told me he was going slow and deliberate with my case (I am very, very complicated). I walked away with complete confidence in him. I have been to several different surgeons and doctors. I consider myself somewhat very adept at reading doctors that has come with much experience. There is no doubt in my mind he is one of the very best! I was highly recommend him with complete confidence.

I initially saw Dr. Cox in the office for abdominal/surgical concerns. He diagnosed my problem and I was completely comfortable with his judgement. He has a great bedside manner and is direct when discussing his plan & recommendations. I really appreciate Dr. Cox and his staff. I would recommend him to anyone.

If you're needing an appendectomy, this is the Surgeon I would recommend. A very pleasant experience, under the circumstances.

I am now 4 weeks after surgery by Dr Cox. My experience with him in before care, surgery and after care gave me confidence that I received the best of care. I am up out of bed walking and eating a regular diet under his direction.
