Soon you'll have too many legal entanglements." He graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Rhodes College and earned his doctorate in medicine from the University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Medicine. He completed his residency in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Washington University School of Medicine and his Neurorehabilitation fellowship at Boston University School of Medicine.  Dr. Vox maintains an interest in philosophy and at one time he promulgated a particular view,as some saw on CNN, or read about in the New York Times, Los Angeles Times,Seattle Times, Birmingham News, U.S. News & World Report, San Diego Union-Tribune and other outlets.
