I went to see this dr to get a second opinion, which he gave me but proceeded to tell me that even though I was looking for a new dr he would not step over the previous drs I had seen. Even after telling him I was not goIng to back to the previous drs I had seen he would not take my case through fear of stepping on their toes. Came across as obnoxious and rude with no bedside manner . Would definitely not recommend. And to top it all off the staff there were so rude and would not let my husband and babies into the room. Snobby and so inconvenient. Cannot relate to parents + families that have no other support or choice but to bring the family! Shameful.

Dr George we both found very concerned and caring for both my wife and i. Even called our home after surgery weeks later. Something you don't find much any more.

This Dr. Was excellent. I loved his office atmosphere, it felt very nice. The secretary was extremely patient and kind. Dr. George listened and also explained everything to me. I would recommend this Dr. to anyone who needed a hand specialist.
