Highly recommend Dr George and Genesis Clinic. We had seen many doctors in previous years and non come close to Dr George. He is competent compassionate very reassuring and kept us well informed and monitored throughout our pregnancy. We felt that we would not receive this level of care elsewhere. Overall the clinic provides a caring environment and support. - by Marzena Filaszkiewicz

not sure if my son would be here with us without having dr George s care professionalism and an extreme detailed situation of our high risk pregnancy... you can trust what is doing. Having a high risk pregnancy is not a wonderful situation where to be in but at least you have somebody here in Dubai that you can trust and knows in what direction to guide your pregnancy and emotions. - by Alice Vianellp
