Dr. George Nicholas Stergis, MD

I have been a patient of Dr. Stergis for over 10 yrs...I had a reaction between 2 prescription drugs that I ended up being put in a coma for a week. Without Dr. Stergis intervention I would have died...It was a Memorial Day and he told my family to plan my funeral as by Monday I may not make it.....But with his intervention here I am and doing well....I have been going to him since...He has now moved to a practice in Winchester VA and I have followed him there..he has helped me with my pain issues and migraines....I would trust no other Dr to treat me..

My wife was suffering from weekly seizures that were at first thought to be associated with her past brain surgeries. Diagnosis by the ER doctors and UVA medical staff was ineffective. Dr Stergis patiently and thoroughly reviewed her medical history and current symptoms and diagnosed her seizures were a result of migraine headaches. He provided a new migraine medication that proved to be a wonder drug and went the extra mile to get the medication approved! Dr Stergis is an extremely dedicated and very compassionate doctor who patiently and efficiently works through to the right diagnosis and solution. Both my spouse and I always leave an appointment with him feeling very satisfied. Highly recommend both Dr Stergis and his very pleasant and efficient staff.

Finally have great relief from chronic migraine headaches. Dr Stergis was very professional, caring and compassionate. I will trust him with my care as well as recommend him to others

Have been in excruciating pain in my head and face for 20+ years. Pain was gradual at first then more frequent as the years progressed. My last episode lasted 6 weeks. Was diagnosed by several doctors, MRI's, etc. as having cervical spinal and facial neuralgia issues and told to wait until pain was severe enough to have surgery. I was recommended to Dr. Stergis and was overwhelmed to find out I have been having severe migraines. I was amazed by the Dr.'s attention to detail. He listened to everything I had to say with much patience and interest. He took a lot of time with me and even gave me medication in the office to see if it would work, and it did. After the 20 years of pain I am on my way to a better life. Also, the office was most helpful and kind.

After a car accident several years ago, I was in hospital for over a year. I had multiple surgeries, too many to list. The docs did not think I would ever walk again, but I did! Even so, I am severely disabled and have so many health issues now. I have been going to Wellspring in Culpeper - even though I live an hour away - because I never wanted to give up Dr. Stergis! I love all the docs there, but Dr. Stergis has been so good to me! He is patient and kind, he listens to my concerns and offers options and a lot of help. I can't imagine finding such a caring doctor again, but I have to relocate to Texas next month - I am going to miss Dr. Stergis so much! If you like a doc who knows his stuff but is laid back and just like a friend looking out for you, he is your guy. I hate to leave! Thanks for such great care over the years since my accident!

I moved from Indiana to Culpeper,VA approximately 10 years ago. Having numerous rather serious medical issues, I realized the necessity of selecting the expertise of quality specialists in various fields of medicine before my arrival! Dr. Stergis is my Neurologist and I have nothing but praise for the care I have received! Not only is he a devoted family man, he is equally devoted to his medical practice! In recent years, Dr. Stergis has accepted the care of my husband whom he diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease! He treats my husband with total respect, but also shows his understanding regarding the difficulty and stress this presents in our personal lives! He advises me what to expect as his condition changes! Accolades to Dr. George Stergis...the epitome of an excellent doctor and caregiver????????

Dr. Stergis is what one seeks in a doctor: knowledgable; caring; concerned; and willing to listen. My wife recently suffered a very serious medical condition that required immediate treatment to save her eyesight. Dr. Stergis personally walked us to the IV lab to make sure the medications were started right away. He also followed up on the medications with the lab. He returned phone calls and helped set up a biopsy with a surgeon to confirm the diagnosis by walking us to the surgeon's office and explaining what was needed. He followed up on everything and was a frequent visitor in the hospital. I recommend him without reservation as a prime example of what a medical doctor should be.

Been a patient of Dr Stergis for a few years...words cannot Express his loyalty to his patients...I have trigeminal neuralgia ...was suffering to the point I had never had...with Dr Stergis taking on this sickness he prescribed the perfect solution for my problem...his kindness and professionalism came across the time I had an attack...called him and he gave me the perfect dosage that took care of the pain...a little time passed and the phone rang...it was him...checking on me...the meds had really calmed the attack...well hard to believe but the next morning at 8 AM the phone call was from our wonderful caring Dr Stergis checking on me...this was amazing...doctors don't make house calls nowadays but that was the very same as a housecall... thanks to God we have a most dedicated doctor whom we appreciate beyond measure...thank you doctor for taking good care of us...kind doctor he is...knows his stuff!!!! One injection calmed a headache that was excruciating....he is the best!!

Recent appt. excellent, tho' a bit of "warm up time" is necessary to develop a conversation. ??

Dr Sergis informed me and made me feel comfortable by explaining his diagnosis And listened to me and what I was worried about. I hope that he will work with me.

I just moved here in May from a large area with many doctors to choose from. I've been treated for a mild seizure disorder for at least 13 years with one medication with limited success and I knew no better. I thought this was just how life was and how it was meant to be. One visit with Dr. Stergis and he recommended another medication that works together with the first to make it more effective and WOW what a difference. I can think much more clearly and I'm a little angry at the other doctors who refuse to think. I asked Dr. Stergis if this was a new medication he said no it's been around for 20 years! They have no excuse. Where I was at was a large Neurological Institute...Well move over here comes Dr Stergis he out diagnosed you all! I don't really have time to be angry...I'm "thinking" about living my life as I should be....Thank you Dr. Stergis

George is great to deal with, he is thorough and has a great deal of knowledge and he shares it. He listened and helps you understand your situation and guides you for your best course of action. I would recommend him every time.

What a great doctor! I recently accompanied my husband to the doctor from a referral and was most impressed with his relaxed but still professional manner. You can tell he is truly interested in his patient and is searching for the correct diagnosis. We have never had a doctor take so much time with you and you never get that rushed feeling. Highly recommend him. Charlotte Bradg

I found Dr Stergis to be very knowledgeable and caring. He took his time with me. I was impressed that he called me after my appt to make a suggestion.

I have been seeing Dr. Stergis for 20 years+. I was referred to him by the National MS Society, after being diagnosed by doctors at Johns Hopkins. From day one, Dr. Stergis, as well as his staff, went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. Dr. Stergis has always taken the appropriate time in addressing my concerns and needs. I have always had immediate responses whenever I had to call his office, for any reason. I would definitely recommend his practice.

He is very knowledgeable, concerned, caring. Does not rush through appointment. Very thorough with exam. Unbelievably short wait to see him every visit. Has helped with medical condition a lot. Absolutely all around fantastic person. Would recommend him highly.

Very knowledgeable and experienced with diagnosing my current medical issue that was unable to be diagnosed during my hospital stay by in-house physicians.

I have suffered with Epilepsy all my life and Dr. Stergis was so fast at diagnosing my problem that I have suffered w/ till I was in my 40's. He is very personable, caring and had no problem spending time to answer any questions I had. I would highly recommend him to any one; also his staff is very friendly, kind and courteous.

I love Dr. Stergis!! I am so thankful for him. I struggle with pain every day and he is the only doctor I have ever met that actually cares. He has the best bedside manner and has an actual personality. It is nice to know your doctor cares because chronic pain is very depressing. He works with you instead of at you - not the God complex so many other doctors have. He even saw me visiting my dad in the hospital and came by and checked on my dad! He cares!! I would truly be lost without him as my issues will never go away. And, I certainly wouldn't trust anyone other than him to manage my conditions. I can't recommend him enough!!!!

DR Stergis takes the time to inform and educate me about my condition, something that is becoming a rare quality in the medical field today. It is good to see we still have doctors who are committed to outstanding treatment and patient care. I would highly recommend him to other Culpeper residents.
