Mr David George is a very professional caring and knowledgeable consultant orthopaedic surgeon. He did my total hip replacement in November last year. He answered all my questions I asked, nothing was too much bother for him.
My partner will be going to him for his hip replacement as well. It most definitely has changed my life for the better

I can’t thank Mr George and his team enough for the care and support I’ve received whilst having a hip replacement.
Mr George is very professional. I found him to be very approachable , understanding and reassuring. From my first consultation to my operation and aftercare, my experience has been first class. I have no negative comments at all.
Thanks to Mr George I have a new lease of life, and I am pain free. I would highly recommend Mr George.

Mr George is a delightful man and surgeon. He’s compassionate, kind, thoroughly professional, and positive. I felt confident that my knee operation would be a success- and it was. He took time to show me the X-rays and explain the procedure and aftercare-rather than just a junior member of his team.
The new compound that he uses in the operation resulted in much less initial discomfort and a quicker recovery (compared to previous knee op at the Lister). I am very grateful he was my surgeon and the excellent care provided by Rivers Hospital.

From when I first met Mr George he made feel confident about my total knee replacement operation Which was a complete success. And after some physiotherapy and a couple of months recovery I’m pain free For the first time in years. I would like to thank Mr George very much.

Mr George gave me the confidence to go ahead with the hip replacement surgery. I was diagnosed in 2017 but was too young to have the surgery at this time. Unfortunately by the time I saw Mr George in June 2024, the pain had gotten a lot worse and I was somewhat reluctant to agree to the surgery as I was still very active and playing tennis and going to the gym.
Mr George was very informative about the surgery and felt that I could be pain free going forward. He has an easy going manner and put my mind at ease to agree to the surgery. He performed the surgery 7 weeks ago and it went really well, thanks to his excellent care and skills I have made a great recovery walking unaided after 6 weeks and I am pain free.
I can only recommend Mr George as he is an excellent surgeon.
