Patient Reviews
Mar 13, 2022
I was an ER patient at the Cox hospital system in Springfield, MO. By a guiding angel, my ER doctor was Sam. He managed my ER needs which were fairly complex with the utmost experience and communication. He coordinated specialist care and got me the medical care I needed that day and set me up with the specialist who has continued to work thru my needs. The day after I got home from the ER, Sam called me to check on my condition. Have you ever had that type of follow up? Well I can say that he continues to do follow up calls checking with me to ensure I am getting the right care and making improvements. Never met anyone in the medical field who has showed such care, kindness and expertise. If you ever find yourself in need of ER, go to Cox South and if you have a guiding angel, you too may meet him to help your serious needs Respectfully, Kristie

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
