My experience with Dr. George was great. Clean new office space, friendly efficient staff. Answered all my questions. Please note the address needs to be updated. They moved from the 936 129th Infantry Dr, Joliet office in April 2021. This is 11/22/21 and the address on zocdoc needs to be updated. New address is 1445 Essington Rd, Joliet, IL. few minute drive from the old office. Thanks again for a positive experience!
Verified patient
I was very happy with my first visit.
Verified patient
Left office not knowing how long I should wear the boot, if I need a follow up appointment and no answers about my left foot or follow up on my diabetes which is one of the reasons I made the appointment as well. Other than that the PA and Doctor were extremely nice and seemed concerned with symptoms I am having but I think Doctor was to booked and was maybe behind on appts. I know now not to schedule an appt when he is just coming back from a vacation.. : )
I was very impressed with Dr. George and his professional manner! He was totally focused on my medical issue! I’m sure he spent more than the allowed time for an office visit with me!
Verified patient
Very knowledgeable
Verified patient
His PA was very kind and knowledgeable. I’ve looked for a podiatrist because I’ve always had foot problems. I explained to him that I’ve had plantar fasciitis and he recommended orthotics even after I told him I’ve tried orthotics twice. He dismissed my concerns and just told that’s all he can basically do for me, so I won’t be returning.
Verified patient
Dr. George is very professional but also friendly. He looks at you when you talk and answer his questions. His recommendations are to the point and easy to understand. I’m glad I go to him.
Verified patient
Always a pleasant experience in this office. Front staff always greets you with a smile, and Dr. George and his resident are professional and care is top notch.
Verified patient
Dr George is an excellent dr and he is very nice.
Verified patient
Excellent podiatrist. Had ingrown toenail removed, bypassed freezing it, and there was no pain. OK, it hurt a little, but he was finished in less than a minute and the needle would've probably been more painful. Highly recommend!
Verified patient
I would go see Dr. George again, he eased my mind and explained and answered all of my questions. So glad I don't have to have surgery, as of now!
Verified patient
He was very nice!
Gave me an option of the least invasive manner to treat a condition. He listened and answered my concerns. I would highly recommend Dr. George!
Verified patient
Great dr.great sevice:)
Verified patient
Awesome Dr. Awesome staff.
Verified patient
It was awesome to be able to see the doctor on such short notice. My problem like many is very unique. I am currently very ill and need to preserve my strenght. Since this was my first visit I had to tolerate the waiting time. I suggest as an option any paper work that can be completed in advace of the visit should be this may assit with cutting down the wait time. Also, it has been suggested that I alert the staff to my very fragile state so when I cime in the office my wait time may be cut down. It may help if I schedule my appoutments to be the first patient of the day or the first patient after the lunch break. Dr George Is awesome and while I had sone apprehension he really did his best to make me feel his concern for my anxiousness.
I was satisfied with the my visit with Dr. George. However, from the receptionist, the xray technician, the ultrasound technician, and the woman that reviewed "foot exercises" with me..not one of the 4 of them told me their name, said "welcome to our practice" or even a "good morning"...I was very unimpressed with the staff and the extreme unprofessionalism...one was biting her nails as she spoke to me, and the others barely cracked a smile. I work for an Optometrist and our friendly staff alone is reason to return, not to mention the outstanding optometric health you receive. I'm hoping that by my next visit to Dr. George there will be a change in attitude and atmosphere among his staff.
