Brief Intro

My Approach to Treating Patients... The patient is first and foremost in my practice. You may have come to me for help with your broken bone, a painful joint or an aching limb. Whatever the complaint, I will do my best to relieve your pain, make you comfortable and restore your function. In addition to my many years of surgical training, I am an experienced listener - a vital part of caring for any patient. Surgical skill is only part of the equation. By carefully listening to my patients I am able to be a better doctor and better surgeon in addressing your healthcare concerns. As a physician I am part of a conscientious and dedicated team of individuals who make up Verghese Orthopedics. My courteous, friendly and efficient staff will assist from the moment you contact our office to guide you through your time under our care. Please feel free to call the office at any time whatever questions you may have or to schedule an appointment for your orthopedic needs. George B. Verghese, M.D.
