She describes her practice style as "health coaching" and thinks of herself as a partner with her patients in their health care. She is especially interested in transitioning our health care system from the current sick-care model to true HEALTHcare.
Walk With A Doc
Dr. Cox established the Ventura County Chapter of Walk With A Doc and can be found at the Ventura Pier on the first Saturday of every month from 9-10 am. This is a really great start to the weekend as we meet under the pier and walk the coast. This has temporarily changed to a virtual education session due to COVID-19. Sign up for the newsletter here.
Blue Zones
