    I wish I could rate Dr. Coz a 100! He ALWAYS explains things, is extremely knowledgeable, has such a caring/kind heart, never rushes through anything-making sure I understand the pros & cons of all options I have. My case is very complex & he has even spoken with other doctors (even in different departments) regarding me. This obviously shows me how much he cares about his patients-since he is willing to seek out other opinions just to help me!! Sadly I have had doctors who never would ask others for input & have suffered consequences from that. I hope you never let him leave Cleveland Clinic as this is why you are a leading hospital anywhere in the world!
