I had a grade 3/4 AC joint separation and had constant shoulder pain. She performed a reconstruction on my shoulder and I am feeling great! Just like before I was injured. If you are in the anchorage area and need upper extremity surgery 10 out of 10 would recommend Dr. Fox! Satisfied 😌

Dr. Fox is kind, brilliant, and skilled...but most of all, she listens. As a patient, you are put in a position to completely trust your doctor in the most vulnerable way. Dr. Fox makes it easy to trust.

Kelley
Dr. Fox was absolutely wonderful. She explains it well. She gives you a feeling of comfort to talk about your problem. She’s one of the best shoulder Doctors I’ve ever had.

William
Dr. Fox removed hardware from my right fused wrist which as causing me considerable pain and swelling. My hand surgeon in Washington had attempted to remove it years prior with no success but Dr.Fox was successful and I’ve had no problems with my right hand. Her knowledge, skill and genuine concern and kindness along with a very competent crew keep me going back to her. She’s earned my trust!
