Dr. Earl Fox

Has anybody had ANY experience with Dr. Earl Fox who is currently practicing in Auburn??? Please let me know any details about him!! Thanks so much!!

Don't know if this is the same Dr. Fox that others mentioned in an earlier posting thread. You can read it at: http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/WA/postdetail/10414.html?vc=0 They suggest a different follow-up doctor...

Yes I have heard alot of negatives about him. I don't want to slander his name in anyway, but I will tell you about a person I know who had him. She worked for my husband. She almost died. She had numerous complications, and it was not caused by her. I have heard of at least 4 other people with bad experiences with him. I know of a very good doctor. Doctor Oh. He is in Federal Way, Wa. He has done over 5000 surgeries and has only lost 1 patient, and that was not his fault, the patient got a blood clot. PLEASE PLEASE re-think your choice. anonomous

Hi, Dr S. Ross Fox is the Senior Dr Fox and Dr Earl Fox is his son. I had a consultation with Dr S. Ross Fox and walked away feeling like I had just met with a used car salesman - VERY nice man, but sort of slick. His office staff ranges from super nice to not so nice. They have a very firm view of after care, whi*****ludes you signing a contract to follow their 'rules'. For me, that was a little harsh, since I'm having a lap band, and don't feel that I should need to follow the same after care as a by-pass patient - again, this is only MY opinion. All three Dr's in that practice are SUPER nice and caring people with a BUNCH of experience - however, they are shadowed by enough controversy to make me feel weird. In the end, I chose to meet another Dr and am having my surgery done in Olympia in the early Spring.
