I have seen Dr Fox for over 20 years. He’s the ultimate professional who explains everything clearly and completely, has an excellent bedside manner, and will do whatever is necessary for the health and wellbeing of his patients. He really cares.
Great service. Very friendly staff and doctors. Couldn’t ask for anything better. Definitely recommend
personal very nice and helpful there wasn't a long wait for appointment very informative
The only complaint I have is when calling to try and speak with a person. Especially the billing department. I once called 3 days in a row and left messages every time and they never called back. Had to go through getting an office person on the phone to help.
I had serious concerns with this visit. The person who installed my IV port did not wear gloves which wasn’t safe for either of us. My appointment was at 8:00 am, I was there at 7:30. They put me in a room and installed IV port around 8:15 am, however I wasn’t rolled out to begin procedure until 9:55 am, after which, they made me walk out staggering and disoriented at 10:15 am.
Very nice office staff and also great nurses very pleased with Dr Fox
The facility was beautifully manicured outside. Inside was spacious and clean. The restrooms were sanitary and clean. Front desk receptionists were kind, knowledgeable, and aware of patients information.
My nurse had great beside manners, so sweet, caring and kind. She explained the process very throughly. My anesthesiologist was very professional and explained the steps to the procedures. Dr. Fox was also professional and kind. I would definitely recommend this facility to family and friends. In fact, I plan on making my husband an appointment soon.
Thanks to the faculty and staff for making my first Colonoscopy appointment a memorable one. See you guys in 10 years.

Dr. Fox was very attentive and listened caringly to my concerns.
Dr.. Fox and his nurse are very pleasant, personal, and professional as they are giving you information. Do not rush time spent with you. Explain all information and answer all your questions. I am pleased to be a patient of Dr. Fox.
Five stars isn’t close to how much I love this doctor and clinic! Dr Fox is caring and kind. He takes his time explaining everything to me and has truly made every endoscopy and appointment I’ve had a blessing. Dr Fox’s nurse is amazing and so helpful. , the surgical nurse, and the anesthetist they use are absolutely wonderful! This group is a gem and Hattiesburg is very lucky to have them. The accounts manager, Kimber, is warm and helpful. Having an esophagus disease is terrible, but they make it much easier to live with and do everything they can to help including when I’ve had to have an emergency endoscopy. If you need a Gastroenterologist, this is the place.
Needed to get in quickly for an issue. Dr Fox’s nurse called and scheduled a face to face within 3 hours. I got the care I needed and a game plan. Every experience here has been stress free. Knock on wood😂
Everyone on the staff that I met was kind and helpful!!!!
Great experience,.. very professional…
Very professional and he made me feel very comfortable. The staff was pleasant
My first visit! The experience was very good. The staff are kind and professional, short wait times. Dr. Fox is exactly what I was looking for in a GI physician. He answered all my questions in his analysis of my condition. I felt comfortable and confident that I could rely on him and trust his skills. I would absolutely recommend him and the clinic to anyone.
Everyone was polite, competent, and efficient so I would recommend them highly.
Dr Fox is Above average, excellent, empathic, and everything a GI Doc should be. His nurse Becky is also excellent and I honestly couldn’t ask for a better team to treat my longstanding Crohn’s Disease! So thankful to God for them.
Very nice all of the staff and very helpful
