Dr. Tamara Fox, MD

I saw Dr Fox twice. The first time I was 16 and could not insert a tampon comfortably. She said that inserting tampons should be more comfortable once I have my first child... I was sixteen.I saw her years later when I attempted to become sexually active, and couldn't achieve penetration at all. Any attempts resulted in excruciating pain. Both visits should have screamed vaginismus. Nope. Her advice to excruciating pain and impossible penetration? She said that I just wasn't used to it and to 'just keep trying to put it in, sweetie, you'll get it eventually.' Unreal. Being 19 and naive, I believed her and forced it for years. I did have vaginismus, finally diagnosed when I was 24, and years of forcing sex under Dr. Fox's advice that the pain was just inexperience and that I just needed to keep at it resulted in a chronic tearing condition in which I tore every time I tried to have sex. I had to have surgery to repair my vaginal opening at 25.

I've seen Dr. Fox twice (for an IUD) and she was horrible. She didn't explain anything to me and didn't even tell me she was sending in a prescription. Her nurse told me I have BV but when I asked my other doctor, they said I had never even had a symptom of BV and they have no idea where she got that in my chart. Dr. Fox was very rude and just wants to get you out as fast as possible. She is always at least 45 minutes behind and has terrible bedside manner. I know now why she was so easy to book. I wish I could give 0 stars

2019 we did some analysis from Dr Tamara.. she skipped some of the important tests which were required and later it was done by another doctor which helped to detect actual issue

I have seen Dr. Fox twice now and have had a bad experience on each occasion. I was misdiagnosed on one occasion. She could some work on her bedside manner. Dr. Fox speaks down to you and doesn't care about anything but to get you out of the office as quickly as possible.

Very poor beside manners. She explained poorly my condition, and put pressure on me to perform a biopsy that she said “it would be useless anyway”. She wanted to go for the big fish and do surgery instead. She didn’t care for my emotional health or to put me at easy. I left the office with high anxiety, and went on to find a true doctor that cares. She was easy to schedule, and now I know why!

Saw her for the first time today and she was very pleasant and relatable. Will definitely see her again!
