Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I feel like he was very good with my daughter but not very good with telling me what the plan for her treatment is.

He was so friendly, full of information yet easy to understand. He talked at a speed that could be understood taking time to listen and respond to both me and my child. I couldn't ask for a better experience.

We were blown away. He gave us medical reassurance, explained the science, and was so kind to our daughter. He related our situation to a personal situation of his own, which made us feel even more cared for and reassured. He didn't hesitate to let us talk and explain, and quickly provided the doctor's note we asked for, for my child's school.

Dr. Cox is always open to having a conversation regarding our child's health. He ensures that we agree with a treatment plan and are well educated and feel comfortable with e lactations prior to leaving.

He was very polite, asked questions about my kid's experiences, then did a quick physical check. It was very brief (especially considering we drove 2.5 hours for this appointment), but that's what is needed with pediatric specialists.
