Very easy to make an appointment with. Excellent manner and went to great lengths at our first appointment to introduce me to associated specialists to look at potential diagnosis. Good follow up. Excellent service from both Mary and Clare when needing help and creating follow on appointments. Dr Fox, listened and and advised a course of treatment that is working well and helped me return to full employment.

Dr Fox is one of the best specialists I have met, he was very clear in his treatment for my irregular heart beat. He fully included me at every point, he is very easy to talk to and when it came to my procedure in which an oblation was performed he was just amazing. Made it clear what was happening and made sure I was reassured at every stage. His staff were also fantastic so would totally recommend Took great care to follow up after the procedure and the procedure has been a total sucess Thank you

Having been referred to Dr Fox via our local hospital we weren't sure what to expect. We found David Fox to be very straight talking but with empathy and compassion. David immediately made a suggestion to Pauls diagnosis but needed further investigation to confirm his thoughts. Upon receiving these results we found him to talk to us in laymen's terms which we could understand, he was willing to listen to our concerns and fears, then speaking to us about what his plans were going forward to try to improve the current condition. David also directed us to Steve Shaw who has also been fantastic in the care, direction and diagnosis. David Fox performed a procedure to fit a defibrillator, which has helped us both, as we now feel we have a back up if things go wrong. The whole of the arrhythmia team inc nurses and the transplant team have been brilliant. We have felt cared for and trust the direction given to us. The process for us has been two years of worry and anxiety but Pauls condition has found stability thanks to the expertise's and professionalism of Wythenshaw.

I'm delighted Paul has done so well following his device implant I performed for him. I wish him all the best for his future move and I am pleased he looks and feels so much better. Thank you for your kind comments. David Fox

Dr Fox is a very caring Dr. and upon meeting him for the first time in out patient he helped to ease my concerns I had about my heart problem. Dr. Fox explained about my condition and the procedure which he and his team would perform to hopefully cease my rapid heart beats. He was clear in his descriptions and answered my questions very clearly. On the day of the procedure, Dr Fox and his team explained what and why they were doing certain things as they successfully carried out the operation. Upon seeing Dr fox on my three month check-up, he was very happy with the outcome and assured me everything had gone to plan and I was discharged from his clinic. A lovely bonus as well, tablet free
