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.

Dr. Fox treated me when he practiced in miami, after a few moments of my consult, he identified that I had suffered a ruptured Achilles’ tendon on my left foot (My tear occurred from playing basketball). I was skeptical at first so I got a 2nd and 3rd opinion. He ended up repairing my tendon. He was excellent and did an amazing job, here I am about 10 years after the surgery and could not be more grateful for the the work he did.0 issues and returned 100% to normal life. Bless this man Ty Dr.Fox

I was disappointed in his overall demeanor and sense of urgency (upon his entering the room) to get on with his next appointment. Dr. Fox cut me off, mid sentence, as I began telling him what my daughter's situation was (and I am NOT an extensive talker by any means). After rudely interrupting me and informing me of exactly what he wanted to hear/know, I informed him that that information was exactly what I was about to share with him had he not interrupted me.

He was so wonderful. My appointment was scheduled for 8:30 and by 8:30 I was already in the back, xrays taken. the office staff was so friendly and caring. The doctor was very informative about my issues and he was quick to come up with the fix. He knew what he was talking about and was able to give me tips as well. After the appointment, unlike most doctors, he told me I don't have to come back to tell him I am doing well. Only come back if I was still having an issue! I highly recommend him!
