Patient Reviews
Jun 09, 2024
Dr. George saved my life in an emergent life-threatening situation. Through multiple follow-up visits and surgeries he displayed nothing but the utmost concern for my long term well-being. He helped answered every question, as simply as possible, to confirm I understood my diagnosis and all potential outcomes. He provided clear expectations at each juncture of my treatment including what was a typical outcome, the best possible outcome and of course any undesired outcomes, whenever I asked. I would recommend him to absolutely anyone, the clinical and clerical team with him is stellar as well. There's a lot of great things happening at MUSC but if Dr. George hadn't been around when I needed him most, I don't know if I'm writing this. For anyone who is going to visit him, I can reassure you that there's nowhere else you'd rather be and nobody else you'd rather have handling your care. Thank you Dr. George, it's been a privilege and a blessing to be a patient of yours.
