FINALLY...A Personal Healthcare Relationship!<br />
It’s not just any doctor who will see you on a Sunday evening after<br />
trading a few texts. For Dr. George Papanicolaou, however, that’s just<br />
the kind of relationship he has with his patients.<br />
One Sunday evening last summer, Dr. Papanicolaou—Dr. George<br />
to most—got a text from a patient. He’d been out golfing and his<br />
14-year-old son accidentally hit him in the head with a club. He was<br />
bleeding profusely, but rather than send him to the ER, Dr. George<br />
met him at his practice.<br />
With no waiting and unnecessary forms, Dr. George had him<br />
all stitched up and on his way home. It’s all thanks to Dr. George’s<br />
relationship-based approach to medicine and the member-focused<br />
model of his practice, Cornerstone Personal Health.<br />
“The industry calls it a concierge practice, but I just like to think<br />
of it as a lifelong partnership with my patients,” said Dr. George. “I<br />
want to spend time with my patients, get to know them, be available<br />
when they need me, and really help them lead the healthiest, fullest<br />
lives possible. Disease and disability don’t just happen, neither does<br />
health. Lifestyle choices like eating, exercising, sleeping, socializing,<br />
and stress determine how healthy and productive we can be.<br />
See above information for more details about an event to meet and<br />
hear Dr. Papanicolaou discuss his relationship-based family medical<br />
practice designed to help improve wellness as well as to be there for<br />
you and your family when needed.<br />
