Explains everything well. Easy to talk to. Just a darrn fine doctor.
Excellent
Dr. Mox is a fantastic doctor. He has performed two knee replacements on me and continues to provide excellent medical care. Both replaced knees are holding up well, over a decade later. He spent sufficient time with me examining and explaining my condition and recommended therapeutics.
