Dr George is one of the best guy doctors I have seen in the world.
I work as a medical profession and I know how hard it is to work in this field, keeping calm all the time. He helped me mange my first pregnancy with my twins. I delivered them without much trouble because of his excellent experience.
I am pregnant with my third child and still he is my only choice.
Before getting pregnant, I knew that Dr. George was great doctor since he was my friend's obstetrician. When I had a bleeding problem in early pregnancy, my friend called him for me and he kindly accepted me as his patient that afternoon.
My twin pregnancy was followed by Dr. George. He was the best obstetrician that I could ever want. He even answered all the stupid questions I have asked in all the appointments with patience. Unfortunately, at 32 weeks my water broke unexpectedly on a Friday morning. My husband called him right away and he told us to go to Welcare Hospital after learning that there was no space available in City Hospital NICU.
He was at the hospital right after we arrived. He was there for me even though he could not be my doctor in that hospital, which was another big shock for me, but he arranged another great doctor. I was so worried about my babies but he said that my babies will do fine in NICU. Everything we planned about my delivery was upside down, not even one thing went as planned but Dr. George managed this crisis very well. He calmed me down as much as I could be calmed down.
He was with my husband giving him support during my emergency c-section. He visited me and called me during my stay at Welcare Hospital. Again, he was there for me after the delivery, answering all my questions and taking care of the bleeding from my c-section stitches. He is not only a great doctor but also a wonderful person.
Dr George was recommended by friends because he is a very compassionate, concerned and patient doctor. I had a troublesome pregnancy - besides having high BP and diabetes and my son's brain growth was not developing properly. I was in and out of hospital for a month. All said and done, he helped me and my husband tremendously by just being the wonderful human being that he is. No words can express the help and support that he gave me and my husband during this time.
I gave birth to my son premarturely at 32 weeks through normal delivery with Dr. George present - what an assurance it was for me to have him there. I will never forget my 1 weeks post partum check up with him when he gave me very encouraging words to help me cope with my newborn son being in the NICU.
19 months later, my son is a very active, healthy normal baby boy (masha'allah). Thanks to his pre-natal care and the nurses at the NICU!
