Do not trust dr Richard e George, back on friday November 21st of 1997 he went into surgery on my brain to remove a CP s...hunt without reviewing the MRI first and see that my shunt and T tube was stuck in scar tissue and manipulated the brain and tried tugging, sawing and burning the scar tissue out for over 45 minutes and then couldn't get the T tube out and caused me to have a severe stroke causing complete left paralysis. Even almost 26 years later, i still only have about 30% function of my left side of my body. This dr should have his license revoked! He didn't even come checkup on me for post surgery visit until Monday the 24th of November 1997 in the late morning a whole 75 hours later. He's worthless. more details
