Dr George is well known for his excellent interpersonal skills, compassionate counselling manners that help parents at challenging times of the pregnancy. Dr George specialises in the best management of high-risk pregnancies (twin pregnancies, mothers with diabetes etc.)  prenatal screening (first trimester /anomaly/3D-4D ultrasound scanning), prenatal diagnosis (CVS, amniocentesis) and counselling. With his combined Fetal & Maternal Medicine skills and extensive obstetric experience, he provides the comprehensive care needed for both mothers seeking a doctor with a full spectrum of expertise in complex maternal and fetal medicine as well as those considered high-risk.

Dr George completed his basic training in Greece and graduated with Honours from Thessaloniki University (Aristoteleio) Medical School in 1992. After serving in the Greek Army (National military service), he continued his studies in the UK. As a Research Fellow at the Royal Free Hospital in London (1998-2000), he published several papers in international peer-reviewed journals on 3D ultrasound in Obstetrics and first-trimester screening. In 2002, he obtained the Diploma in Advanced Obstetric Ultrasound, and in 2004 completed his MRCOG.

In 2007 Dr George was awarded the title of Fetal & Maternal Medicine Sub-Specialist / Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist by the RCOG. The American equivalent is the subspecialty of Perinatology. The subspecialty was created from the need to develop highly trained physicians (with additional skills in Obstetric Ultrasound invasive procedures and counselling) who would be able to manage complicated, high-risk pregnancies.

From 2007-2009 Dr George worked as a Senior Lecturer/Consultant in Fetal & Maternal Medicine at the University of Southampton a tertiary referral centre in South England. From 2009 – 2011, he has been the head of the Fetal & Maternal Medicine Unit at the American Hospital Dubai.
