I would recommend Dr. George to my family and friends without reservation. He is highly skilled, professional and very personable. I herniated my my cervical disc at C4/C5 while lifting a sick elderly neighbor. I was referred to Dr. George by another neurosurgeon who was a client. Dr. George performed a minimally invasive anterior cervical discectomy with arthroplasty (artificial replacement - Prestige). Following the procedure, I had no pain, full range of motion and an almost non-existent incision scar. I have some familiarity with medicine. My father was a surgeon and I am an attorney, who for a good part of my career, defended surgeons from medical malpractice actions. Dr. George is the real deal.

He is not only a brilliant physician but he is respectful and kind. He met my husband 2 mins before my surgery and after answering my husband’s questions and concerns, my husband was satisfied with him. My primary physician also highly recommended Dr Zac George

I was referred to Dr. George last year after incredible back pain that lead to a spinal fusion of L3 to S1. I cannot express enough gratitude to Dr. George and his staff for treating me as if I were family. Dr. George is an extremely talented and compassionate surgeon. I am almost a year post op and I am back to my normal activities. Dr. George and the staff in the West Islip location are truly professional. They all made a difficult year bearable.

From the first visit I made to Dr. George's office for consultation I became very comfortable and confident with the entire staff and I was able to maintain that level of confidence until the services were completed. The office staff displayed such courtesy and kindness that made me feel very comfortable. Dr. George gave me very precise and informed advice regarding my medical condition, including the available option. This gave me the opportunity to make informed choices.

Condescending and rude. Refused to help me or offer any solution. Went to him for a second opinion and he made me feel like i was wasting his time.

Saw Dr George in 2016, I had severe pain in both legs & had been diagnosed with severe spinal stenosis. Saw my MRI..told me that I definitely needed spinal surgery, & noninvasive surgery was NOT going to help my condition. I asked him what my options were. He did not want to do any surgery and said he couldn't help me. He was rude and condescending and he rushed me out of his office. Bedside manner-ZERO! I left feeling very discouraged, depressed & upset. I would NEVER recommend this Doctor
