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.

Patient appointment
I saw Dr George for the first time for my annual appointment here in Jupiter FLHaving a medical background in nursing I have to say, my evaluation of Dr George is five star. I found her to be very knowledgeable, efficient, professional, calm mannered, observant. I decided to establish a patient relationship based on my observation of her clinical knowledge and keen awareness.

Dr. George is the worst doctor I've experienced in my 35 years of living. She is brash and so rude. I cannot believe she still has a license to practice. I'm a nurse so if I have a question about my condition she should be courteous. Please do not go to here. Do your self that favor. Abhorrent and disgraceful is the best way to describe her.

I recently started with Dr. George and when I say huge improvement from my previous pcp. She goes above and beyond and every visit is personalized. She’s the first doctor I had that has made me feel like she actually cares. Highly recommended

I have been a patient with Dr George for over twenty years. She is a Great! Family Dr. She takes the time to answer all my questions, keeps me up to date with annual tests, and when my sister needed a new GP I Didn’t hesitate to bring her there. She is compassionate, knowledgeable and her staff always gets me in if an emergency visit is needed.

Dr. George and her staff are always friendly and helpful in accommodating my needs and reminders about my appointment. My wait time is not long as they understand my hectic work schedule. Going to the doctor is not easy, but they make it as comfortable as possible.

Oftentimes I have had to wait about an hour despite arriving on time for my appointment. So i wait an hour just to see her for a couple of minutes, and she certainly isn't the friendliest doctor in the world.

Nice lady but refuses to advocate for patients. I had an accident and have a front tooth missing now, I'm only 28, but she refuses to send a letter to my insurance so they can help me pay for it. I asked if it was for ethical reasons and she replied she just doesn't write letters for anyone. I wanted her to advocate for me as my PCP since I can't afford it but it's clear she didn't see that as her concern. Outside of this she's was at least willing to help with things she decided I needed.

I have been a patient of Dr. George for over 25 years. She is caring, compassionate, understanding and knowledgeable. I can talk to her about anything & she will listen to my concerns.

I have been a patient of Dr. George for the past 5 years. She has been nothing but compassionate and caring in my healthcare needs. I trust Dr. George with my life and I would not go to anyone else. In fact, most of my family goes to Dr. George as well. The reason why her office may sometimes be so busy is because of the fact that she has a very large, loyal patient population and while the wait may sometimes be long; I am usually out of the office within 45 minutes. I know I am not alone in giving this kind of review.

Literally the worst PCP doctor on Earth. I have had dozens of doctors living in 3 different countries in my life and Usha George is by far the worst. I have been seeing her in excess of 10 years due to locational convenience but will find a younger native American doctor now. Firstly she's an immigrant doctor from India, she graduated from an Indian medical school I never heard of almost 40 years. This alone should scare you away. It would have for me if I had known . Her bedside manner is terrible. She just wants to get paid and go home You can tell thus by the way she clumps her appointment's. She use to do this often back in the day. She would put 20, 30 people on an appointment say for 1p.m. and she would show up an hour and half late. So that people are queued up and aggravated. She will never wait for any patient. You must do the waiting. Likely fir 2 to 3 hours. Expect this kind of wait time. Her staff changes so often because she's so awful and they botched my blood work mul

Very unprofessional as she doesn't listen to your concerns and is quick to snap at you. The impression you get from her is that she is quick to have you come in order to get paid and not really follow through. Wait time was unreal, almost 2 hrs, and it was a waste of time. Definitely don't recommend

Nasty attitude towards her patients , absolutely no concern. Rushes to conclusions and didnt listen to my explanations or concerns on my visit. She seemed angered by my attendance in her office , as if I was wasting her time. I Wouldn't recommend her to anyone!

Absolutely horrid doctor. Never had such a negative experience with a doctor. She will always tell you to come in so she can get the copay even when she provides no advice or tangible assistance. Her staff is rude and calls patient concerns "rants".

If I could give her a negative star I would. I was seeing Dr. George years ago for an enlarged lymph node which she stated could be mono without ever doing bloodwork. She prescribed antibiotics that didn't help. Once I went for a second opinion I found out I had stage IV lymphoma. This doctor should not be practicing medicine!
