    Dr Box has been very knowledgeable and attentive to my unique circumstances over the past years. I would recommend him to anyone needing his specialized care.

    I think Dr. Box is absolutely fantastic. He was recommended to me by my physical therapist and, well, I can't say enough about him. Unfortunately, since I first saw him, my insurance has changed and will no longer cover Dr. Box. That was extremely frustrating to me. But that's the way it is. I'm sure Dr. Box will give me a good referral.

    Dr. Box was great, articulate, thorough, informative and caring. He ordered an additional X-ray and offered to order mri to get a whole look at the area in question. I did send a follow up email later in the day and a staff member suggested I go to another doctor which differed from my conversation with Dr. Box however Dr. Box called and was most helpful.

    Dr. Hayden Box could not have been nicer or more thorough. He ordered additional x-rays immediately before our appointment so that he could have the information he needed to fill out what already existed in my MGB Portal. He was very kind but also realistic when sharing his thoughts about my condition and the potential difficulties of such a complicated surgery. I so appreciate his honesty and it gave me a great deal of confidence in him as a doctor and a surgeon. My thanks to Dr. Box for taking me on as his patient. [redacted]
