Scott L. Rex, MD

David and I are very happy to have found Dr Rex He is very concerned with our health and takes the time to explain the medicines we take and why we take them
as well as the results of the tests he orders. He is always there to answer our concerns and anything that happens in our lives that need his medical attention
We always feel relaxed after a visit in his office and with his office staff

My father had fallen ill and I brought him to the hospital. Our Doctor, Dr. Rex, is also on-call at this hospital and he examined Dad. Eventhough the x-rays were not showing it, Dr. Rex believed that my Father had pneumonia after analyzing his symptoms. He was correct. As my Father was being treated with fluids and antibiotics, he started drowning and he seemed to be getting worse and he had a high fever and his blood pressure was elevated. What I did not know was that Dr. Rex had already told the nurses to start my Father on lasix to remove the water, however, the nurses were not telling the full story of my father's condition to the Dr. and I started causing a commotion. I then called Dr. Rex (who almost always answers my calls and he did this time) and he came immediately to the hospital in a suit from an event. He saw the condition that my Father was in and immediately had Dad placed in the ICU with the best cardiologists and infectious disease doctors that the hospital had. He also spoke to me with a complete positive attitude and calmed me down. A few hours later, after my Father was treated with different medications and breathing treatments, his vital signs started improving. Slowly Dad improved each day and after 8 days between the ICU and then a step-down unit, in which Dr. Rex came every morning to check on him, my Father had finally beaten the pneumonia. Dr. Rex then consulted with me and was able to convince my Father to go to rehab for his legs at a facility because he knew that Dad was too week to go home. This rehab stint truly helped Dad and he is now in better shape than he was prior to getting sick and I want to thank Dr. Rex for saving my Dad's life.

Experience with Dr. Rex and staff

I'am very pleased to have selected Dr. Rex as my primary care physician. I feel that there is closer relationship and ability to quickly communicate which set him apart. When there are no issues, I'am periodically contacted and reminded with direct personal health check ins...When there is an issue... either Dr. Rex or one of his staff quickly makes contact and arrangements to address my needs. This is always followed by a call to re-assure that he is aware of any situation. As a patient with heart disease and diabetes, i feel it is comforting where i can speak with a doctor who follows my situation closely and gives direct opinion, recommendation and feedback.

Three years ago I moved my mom closer to me as she was very sick and dad had passed away. Dr. Rex immediately did a major work up on her conditions and all of her medications. He said she was near death,which wasn't a surprise to me. Her life was pathetic and it was very sad to see her just sitting in her apartment with no joy at all. Shortly after we worked together and she was going out, sleeping better and now has a full and very happy life!
I thank Dr. Rex all the time and have recommended him to a friend who was going through a similar situation with her mom.
Never did we think she would celebrate her eighties and she is!!!
