  • Really nice man, put my daughter immediately at ease. Asked a lot of questions which were logical and easy to understand. Made the experience of going to see a consultant easy. No waiting around either. Would recommend.

  • I have been suffering acid reflux and it proliferated for 2 years. It became unmanageable daily and I was mentally exhausted. Upon meeting Dr Cox he listened to my problem and showed empathy. Dr Cox subsequently undertaken tests. He talks with data, very thorough and amicable.

  • A great experience from start to finish. Dr Cox diagnosed and resolved my health issues and administered the correct medication to help. The only consultant to have done so after seeing many others. I would highly recommend Dr Cox to any patient.
