Katherine A Cox, DO, is Assistant Professor, Family Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and an attending physician at Mount Sinai Queens. Through her clinical focus on primary care, she provides a caring and holistic approach to the management and treatment of a range of medical conditions.
