“I had so much faith in my care takers.”
Dr. Cox, Dr. Moore, and everyone on their team has been helpful and kind during the almost 6 months I have been working with them. Dr. Cox is experienced and thorough and has a way of putting you at ease with his expertise and humor.

“My experience was exceptional.”
Every visit was great. Dr. Cox is the only doctor to personally do a follow up call after my surgery. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Cox and the staff.

“Amazing results. I never knew breathing could be so effortless.”
Quick recovery, minimal pain. Dr. Cox was easy to talk to and very clear on options and recommendations. He did a great job. I highly recommend him.

“Dr. Cox is very attentive and answers all your questions.”
Dr. Cox completed a septoplasty and turbinoplasty procedure on my nose in December and this was my 3 month follow up appointment (but actually 6 months because of COVID19). He answered any questions I had in regards to regaining complete feeling back, he is very attentive when listening, and very respective of your time and appointment. I have always enjoyed my appointments with Dr. Cox and his assistant, Claire, because they are always so nice and actually there for the patient’s needs. I have already referred some friends and family to him, if they choose to correct a deviate septum.
