Dr. George James Counelis, MD

Dr. Counelis is the best possible choice you could make for back surgery, always a very difficult and consequential decision. He did two back surgeries for me, one in an emergency situation. I feel deeply grateful for his excellent surgical care and caring follow-up service.

Dr. Counelis is the reason I'm alive today. My brain surgeries were a success because of his extraordinary talent. His bedside manner also exceeds any expectations. He will always be the hero to my family and me! So grateful to have him as my specialist!

Dr Counelis treated me at a very critical time in my life. I felt in the best of hands. He was concerned, explained well, and most importantly, he had the skill to pull me through a very bad illness. He is excellent! Office staff is wonderful.

Dr. Counelis saved my life! I was air lifted from Turlock to Walnut Creek after a scan determined I had 3 aneurysms in my head. On May 5, 2008, he performed brain surgery and I am well and happy today! Thank you!!!

From the time you enter his office, you feel in a professional environment. It is very neat, clean, orderly and 21st Century. A beautiful big screen TV shows high quality nature programming and the chairs have individual TV screens featuring medical topics and information. The receptionist is cordial and friendly. Dr. Counelis projects a calm thoughtful demeanor. He listens, analyzes and provides easily understood diagnosis and plan of action. I feel very confident being his patient.

Dr.Counelis has excellent surgical skills and a warm bedside manner. His support staff is friendly and efficient.

I have seen Dr. Counelis over the last ten years. He is one of the finest Doctors in NOCAL. Always has options on the best the best for your care. He is highly recommended!

It is difficult to find words that are adequate to express my sincere appreciation for what Dr. Counelis accomplished in order to repair the deterioration to my spine so that I can now continue to do the physical things I thought were no longer possible. I will be forever grateful for his expertise and caring.

Dr. Counelis and his team saved my daughter-in-laws life for which we are all most thankful. Wonderful, caring staff. Great volunteers!!

His suit is way nicer then his personality. The way he rolls his eyes when one asks him a questions makes him look cocky. Aside from that, I thank him with all my heart for his outstanding neurology work on my dads neck that allowed my dad to walk after a horrifying accident. I sincerely appreciate your work Dr. JCounelis.
