Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Sad
Her mood is unpredictable, but her demeanor has never been warm in my experience. I truly believe she’s a good Doctor who has lost her compassion and seems fatigued when it comes to listening to the patient. As other people have experienced sometimes she is downright rude.

Best Ever
She was very thorough in her time spent with me to assess what my issues were. I had hearing and balance problem. Being an Osteopathic Dr on top of ENT Specialist helped to get an initial diagnosis and then referral for testing. She listened and she asked a lot of questions. I've never had such a caring Dr before or since.

Very competent doctor
For years my primary care physician had trivialized my various ear, nose and throat issues. Dr. St George quickly diagnosed my throat, nasal, and ear problems and prescribed effective treatment for my symptoms. The treatments were also very cost effective. During office visits she asks appropriate questions and gets right to the diagnosis which I like. If you want hand holding she's not the physician for you. The one concern I had was she didn't necessarily acknowledge taking into account my current medications when prescribing medications for my symptoms.

This dr. Is rude. Did not apologize for making me wait in the exam room for an hour! Could not tell me why my ears clogs up every so often. Blamed it on all my teeth either being filled or crowned.Very poor bedside manner. Also ask me if I thought she could wave a magic wand and fix this. Rude! If I could give her 1\2 stars I would. I got absolutely no satisfaction from this drs. visit which I paid a co pay and will need to pay the full office bill since I have not met my deductable. She should retire.

This Dr seemed inconvenienced by my concerns. Didn’t make eye contact or speak to me unless it was absolutely necessary. During a routine procedure, she thought it was a good idea to scrape and stab my severely infected ear canals leaving my ear bleeding for days. She then tried to blame me for the skin in my ears not being in good condition (due to the infection she couldn’t help me get rid of). This is a very rude and unprofessional doctor. Her bad reputation is know within the local ENT field

How was your experience with Dr. St George?

About Me

care philosophy

I try to actually listen to the patient and not make him or her feel rushed. I tend to be conservative in regards to surgery. I also appreciate a patient respecting my diagnosis and not coming in with preconceived notions. I started peactice in 1984 and feel I have alot to offer regarding experience.
