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.

Excellent doctor
Explained in detail my situation and outlined all options. Contrary to another review, surgery was never pushed on me. It was explained that surgery was an option and Dr. Cobb told me the odds of success. I chose no surgery and Dr. Cobb was pleased with my choice. Based on my experience it's very difficult to imagine that he's a surgeon who always wants to do surgery. He's a doctor who wants to do what's right. Highly recommend him.

Dr Cobb is the most humble, wise and caring doctor I have ever been to. I suffered for years with MRI after MRI. I was told countless times nothing was wrong and 2 doctors wanted to fuse my back. Im sure God sent me to Dr. Cobb. After explaining my symptoms he knew there was was something wrong but knowing isn't enough for him. He ordered a test that confirmed what he thought even that was not enough. He wanted visual confirmation so ordered a myelogram and that's the only test that actually showed the problem. He goes the extra mile to get the correct diagnosis. Words cannot describe how thankful I am for him. My surgery did exactly what it was suppose to do. No more groin, leg and thigh pain. So thankful for the true healers God has given us. His staff is efficient, kind and caring. They take care of the scheduling right in his office. Dr. Cobb is the only doctor I will ever see for back or neck surgery. I never waited longer than 15 minutes if that. Just cant say enough!

Dr Cobb is caring and very knowledgeable, available and timely. His explanations were clear. His staff, Wanda and receptionist were also very attentive, kind and helpful. It was the absolute best experience and exactly what we needed in a very trying time for my wife's health. I recommend him highly.

Dr. Cobb has treated two of our family members. The poor result cannot just be coincidence. He is down to earth, knowledgeble, competent I think? BUT BE APPRISED: Mark Cobb is a SURGEON. I would not call him a physician because his treatment begins and ends with "CAN I DO SURGERY". If you are expecting him to care, or to listen if the surgery does not go well.....CHOOSE ANOTHER DOCTOR. Months of agony is not worth going to this doctor.
