Patient Experience Reviews
Excellent doctor. Very happy with his care and concern
Very good experience with doctor and staff
Very good experience. Reassuring.
The doctor was warm and friendly which put me at ease. He was very easy to talk to and pleasant. He was enthusiastic and listened to everything I shared and I felt very respected. He was through and took the time to explain my diagnosis and why he would recommend the course of treatment. I have already recommended him to a friend.
Dr George is both empathic and takes the time to explain things in detail.
I appreciate Dr. George scheduling my visit as soon as possible.
My appointment with De. Naveen George was one of the best medical experiences I have ever had. *** fully explained my prescription choices, kindly challenged me to want a better outcome than what I've been living with for the past several years with my prescription regiment. Cannot recommend him highly enough!

Dr. Naveen George is my favorite provider on my care team. He seemed genuinely excited about my progress and seemed to actually care about my condition improving. He always makes me feel like I am his most important patient and even though the office is a long drive for me, he and his office staff make it worth it for me. Everyone in the office seems to enjoy their jobs, and always make me feel safe and welcome.
Very caring, concerned doctor who listened to my concerns and did NOT medically gaslight me like most of the doctors I see
*** and Dr. George were absolutely wonderful during, and after, my visit. They were both kind, calming, knowledgeable, and made me feel comfortable. Dr. George seems to truly be an expert in neurology especially migraines/headaches, and talked to me/treated with respect and understanding, explained things in a way I could understand, and answered all of my questions. I never felt like he was rushing or bothered or in a hurry to get to the next patient. The front desk staff was also very kind. I appreciate everyone I encountered on this visit, you all made a pleasant visit for me and gave me hope on my migraine journey! Thank you! :)
I appreciated the amount of time the doctor spent with me for my appointment. He was knowledgeable and attentive to answer all of my prepared questions. He gave me good ways to improve the way I take my migraine medication and also prescribed a new, non-medication procedure to try. Even though I had to wait 3 months to get the appointment, the doctor did spend time explaining things to me. He confirmed some thoughts I had about migraines, and also gave me new information. Overall, it was a great experience.
Dr. George was amazing
Dr. George is an awesome doctor! The day of my visit there was a student intern doc and she came in the room first got all my information and what was going on. She did all the neurological exams. She was very patient with me as I'm ***! She then went and talked to Dr. George and they both came back in room. Dr. George listened to everything I had to say and never rushed me! After listening to my complex medical life he put a plan of action to help resolve current medical issue saw him for! At the end of my appointment I asked him if he would write down the meds he talked about to run by my *** Surgeon and I would get back to him if those meds were safe for me and no interference to my ***e typed it out and came back and repeated it while pointing to words! He then walked us up to the front and told the receptionist that I was deaf and when I was to come back for a ***. All of that means a lot to me as being deaf and I take that into consideration when choosing to keep a doctor. Thank you Dr. George and to your student for making my appointment go smooth, working with my deafness and reduce any stress!!!!!
