I saw another care provider in the practice as my usual care provider was out of the office. Care provider assessed a rash I had and when unable to definitively identify said rash had the office make an appointment with a dermatologist. Provided the dermatologist with a picture. I was able to see the dermatologist the next business day and get on a treatment plan. So very grateful for the provider for seeing me and for his thoroughness and follow through.

I was thrilled when Dr. Cox accepted me as a new patient after my Mom passed away in Oct 2020. He had taken care of both my parents, so he knows my family history. I just didn't want to continue driving to [...], where doctors rotate like a revolving door. I was always receiving a letter stating my doctor had moved and I was now assigned to someone else. Dr. Cox is the kindest doctor, always listening to whatever concern I may have, with a suggestion in how to treat.

Dr.Cox has been my primary care physician for such a long time that I can't count the years. I trust him very much. I've also relied on him more as I have aged. Despite having several chronic illnesses/conditions, and several specialists treating me, Dr. Cox is the anchor of my health care. It is helpful (and puts my mind at ease) to have routine follow-up visits every three or four months with him, in addition to whatever accute health problem might arise.
Aug 24, 2024
Doctor J. Cox has alway listened to my questions and concerns. We would have a decision on what would be the best course of action and my options. All of the pros and cons!
Aug 24, 2024
The Doctor went thru multiple causes for swelling, he does a good job listing these and explaining them but I do think the one he left til last is probably the real cause. [...]
Aug 13, 2024

Dr. John Cox. He's been my PCP for a couple of decades. He is sensitive to my concerns and listens carefully. He includes me in health and treatment decisions.
Jan 29, 2023
Dr. Cox is the best. He knows how to work with his patients in a courtesy, respectful way. One thing that stands out with him is this. He spends time with his patients. I'm usually in there a good 45 minutes , he doesn't rush things.I've heard complaints these days where Doctors rush, 15 minutes and your gone. I've had people ask me If they could get me In with him. Not with Dr. Cox, he spends time with patients. Dr. Cox's team were the people who discovered the Melanoma I contracted. He also has coached and advised me on smoking and I've made the attempt recently to cut down, which I've done before. He never nags or disrespects me. Doctor Cox has old school work ethics. He is a great part of U of R. I would be lost without him.
