I had surgery on my finger, had a bone spur that was allowing joint fluid to leak out under my skin. It cost me thousands of dollars, a week later one stitch came untied, and my finger problem was worse after the surgery than it was before. Went back to show his assistance the damage finger, agreed with me that it was a bad surgery , but however they are denying me for my many back fior my out of pocket. He’s a butcher. Now I have to have surgery again and pay for a different doctor to do my surgery.

Dr George has operated on my hands and did an excellent job of doing so, his smiles lighten up the room and his smile bring joy to my heart he's very warm and kind, he has shown me nothing but compassion and he has also complimented me on my purse as well as the way I dress he's so observant and I like that about him each surgery that has never left a lasting lasting scar, I would recommend him to everyone, whenever I see him he don't rush me like some doctors do he listens, and he won't operate unless it's necessary.

I have been going to Dr. George for 2 years now I went to him originally for a problem in my left thumb which turned out to be basal joint arthritis he has given me injections to help the issue as he explained I'm am too young to have the surgery & doesn't want to perform the surgery until necessary. He is very knowledgable & kind. He has performed my carpal tunnel surgery on my right hand (as I am a Hairstylist) so it was necessary to get rid of the numbness & pain as the injections did not help me. He made sure to have a nerve test done on both hands before finally saying to do the surgery. He did a very wonderful job a very small incision at the bottom base of my palm. The pain was pretty bad after but now it is over a year later & my hand is in great shape no problem with it & I am very pleased with his performance in every area that he has treated on my hands. I have also never had to wait longer than an hour for overall office visit unlike other doctors I've been to. Great Doctor

The surgeries Dr. George performed were very successful. I highly recommend him. He is very smart, a skilled surgeon and a personality to the max (and good looks). The punctuality leaves a lot to be desired, but you know not to plan anything else on the day of your appointment. I woudl not think of seeing another doctor for my hands.

The greatest smile & best personality of any doctor I've been to in my lifetime. The best nursing staff especially that of "Miss Claudette". Always caring, most concerned & very informative. The surgeries he performed on both my arms was most effective, and relieved the numbness in my fingers. If all doctors and nurses could be as such, I would make an appointment everyday! I would recommend Dr. George and his staff to anyone and all!! "MOST PROFESSIONAL" "MOST EXCELLANT

I really was impressed with Dr. George's knowledge and bedside manner. His punctually left something to be desired. He was late for my procedure(more than an hour). The following week, I went to the window after waiting more than 45 minutes past my appointment time and the receptionist, who knew the doctor was running about an hour and 45 minutes late, was rude. I feel that I should have been informed of this delay upon sign in, as I had other obligations later that evening. The doctor was very nice but I think the front office staff could use some additional training on how to treat patients as individuals and not cattle.

Dr. George was supposed to put a prosthetic joint in my right middle finger. In the OR his staff put a drape over my face which caused me claustrophobia. I told him I could not tolerate this and he told me I was going to have a drape over my face of cancel. He canceled the surgery. I later talked with others who had bad experiences with him and I am glad he did not do my surgery. After 10 years I still have not had the surgery and my hand is fair, movement is limited in that joint, pain is under control. In any case it is better than what would have been the result of surgery.
