Joseph A. Cox, PhD

"Very caring, and kind. Willing to work with you to make appointment times and payments. Does NOT charge you $150.00 if you unexpectantly (due to illness) have to reschedule without allowing 24 hour notice, like others in this town do. He is thorough during testing and evaluating the kids. He also has a realistic understanding of his subjects preventing those that would from maneuvering or manipulating him away from what really is at the heart of what needs to be addressed. He seems to have achieved a skill level that seems to be unmatched by others locally at being able to arrest the over dramatic reactions/responses that frequently accompany many of his patients, recognizing these are often symptoms of puberty, angst of adolescence, etc. All the while making certain the patient is instilled with the feeling of trust in him and a genuine feeling that he cares. Equally he treats the parents with same compassion, understanding respect. He does not feel that a difference in opinion from another person gives him the justification to treat them with an arrogant holier than though and disrespect. What you see is what you get. No arrogance or hidden agendas showing a need for selfpromotion. Just old fashioned kindness, caring, and compassion with a responsible dedication to a career of helping others. Yet still after so many years he can't disguise the quiet passion he feels for these kids. Thank you Dr Cox."
