Dr. Cox has been in practice many years & with that brings experience & knowledge. I've seen him for years and am very happy with the care me & my family have received. His office is extremely professional and he has the best Nurses. Michelle & Lisa get referrals done and always take care of my phone calls in a timely manner.

I waited over three hours and finally just left..and I was the only one in the waiting room for those three hours. Staff is very rude.

Was totally humiliated and traumatized by my visit. Waited 4 hours with no communication or information, completely missed diagnosis, and really poor decision making by doctor and staff. No one should ever be treated like this!

Love Dr. Cox! The staff however needs extreme makeovers! Waiting time was off the charts. Love the Dr, but the office, staff and receptionist was a bad experience.
