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.

No doubt Dr Fox has more experience than anyone in the valley because he's still practicing at age 79. My child didn't connect with him and questions were very vague and non-conclusive in two telehealth appointments. It was difficult to get a prescription refill with his office. Realizing the area is in desperate need of physicians and psychiatrists but it may be time for retirement.

We love Dr. Fox. He is knowledgeable and kind and will go to bat for the child and family with his whole heart. He will 4ake on the authorities on behalf of your child. He will go to court to advocate for the child. He is accessible. A true gem. We have never had a more involved and kind doctor.

please do your family member a huge favor and do not send him or her to this doctor. He is not that good at what he does. Does not stay for a long amount of time with patient and talks more to parent then to patient. He is also very lousy at making sure refills are done in time before medication runs out. I would never recommend him to anyone. He should just retire.
