Conservative yet through
I asked questions didn’t get direct answers. I understand each doctor is different but my other knee surggery went a lot smother I feel that I’m not being completely informed. Why was there a differs kind of knee out in my left leg then my right leg and why wasn’t I informed of this before procedure. Not totally satisfied with the whole situation.
The best surgeon in the area
Very thorough. Explains things very well
Always professional
Very good DR
Such a great guy! Makes me feel like I am his only patient and really listens to me. I recommend him to all my friends. God bless. .
Good visit.
He listened to everything I had to say very understanding. He explained everything vet happy.
I thought Dr. Mox was professional, knowledgeable and understanding. He took the time to answer my questions, address my concerns, and give me a plan of next steps, something a previous doctor wasn’t willing to do. I’m happy I was recommended to him, and I appreciate his willingness to listen and help me.
