Dr. Gary Cox AKA DR. G is what I call him, did an amazing job on my breast reduction. I would recommend Dr. G to anyone looking for a certified plastic surgeon with over 24 plus years of experience. Best decision ever! Hopefully one day he can perform Panniculectomy/ Abdominaspty surgery for me. Thank you Dr. Cox AKA DR. G and staff for doing an amazing job. ??

Dr Cox performed a breast augmentation on me. I'm so incredibly satisfied with the results. His work could not be better. Personally, the absolute end result was the most important aspect of the surgery far beyond any of the items that are rated in these reviews. However, just as an added bonus, the staff is friendly, the doctor is very friendly (he even called me himself the day after the surgery to check on me), and I've never waiting for a long period of time when I had an appointment. If there were a bonus star, I'd give him that too!

I decided to schedule a breast lift with augmentation with Dr. Cox because at my consultation he was very forward about the pros AND cons of the surgery. He did not try to push any other procedures that I was not there to discuss on me. His nurse in the office and in surgery were excellent. He was very realistic about the size I should go with and suggested I not go as big as I was thinking. I am so happy I didn't go bigger. My breasts look better than they EVER have and the incisions healed quickly and look great. I would definitely recommend him for this procedure. He did a fantastic job and exceeded my expectations.

I am very pleased with the service I received at Associates in Plastic Surgery, and very pleased with Dr. Cox. Dr. Cox has great bedside manner, explained everything that would happen. He personally called to check on me after my tummy tuck. I am very pleased and can not wait for my next procedure!

Dr. Cox has done 2 cosmetic surgeries on me. One was a tummy tuck, which turned out beautiful and the other was a facelift with an upper eyelid lift. He is by far a very good surgeon. One that cares about the concerns of his patients and how each surgery turns out. I am very pleased with his work.
